[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 764331, member: 3305"] Thank you Tiredof33. The 2 year anniversary of my son’s death is coming up soon. I rarely go to the cemetery as I know that is not where he is anymore. For a long time I replayed his last week in my head and the day he was hit and killed with Meth in his system on Thanksgiving morning. No shoes on his feet. A pack of cigarettes and 3 dollars to his name. I am getting better. Just got a new Australian shepherd puppy and she is a very calm delight. We are also waiting on a loan to be approved this week so we can start building an outbuilding next to our house. And as soon as my daughter’s house sells her family will be buying an RV and putting it on our land to live. Changes. Finally life is starting to move forward again. I need this. I can’t stay stagnant in depression. I know Jarod’s love for me would never want that. On his best day he had a heart of gold. I can’t tell you what you should “do” regarding your own son. I think now it has more to with what they do for themselves. You won’t win his sobriety for him or keep it for him long term. These are things he’ll have to want for himself. My dear Jarod always put drugs first. And drugs had the last word. [/QUOTE]
