[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 733429, member: 15032"] Thanks for all your comments and support. I so appreciate it!!! His dad is going to take him for a 5 day pass on June 1. He will drive him to our new home in Alabama that is under construction and to see the area and the church that was recommended to us by our realtor (who is a southern gal and we loved her). I am so glad I am staying strong too. I think it is my second nature now. It's funny how you work on yourself and your detachment so hard and then you actually get to see and feel it take hold it surprises you!! I don't even consider him joining us without completing the program. In fact, I am still terrified that he can relapse and I don't think I can let go of that. It will take a very long time. I may never get over that feeling. I don't like it and I hope that I can. I did figure that the visit made him homesick. I don't want to do the mother/child role anymore. It's sad but that is gone now. I guess it has to be a new adult relationship now. So much work to do to build trust again. So hard to put yourself out there. [/QUOTE]
