[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 729361, member: 19522"] Oh, that is terrible. I am so sorry. I have much respect for you, Billiesue. They are his family and see things very differently. I am sorry for all that is happening, and what has happened. It is a no wonder your son felt the way he did with the estrangement. That can all just add to the loss. One of the things I went through is [I]regret[/I]. Hubs had a tough time dealing with our twos' downfall with drugs and all of the agony that comes with that. Me too, I was ready to detach and he was, and wasn't. We grew apart in many ways due to this and extenuating circumstances with his illness. He was withdrawn and angry. That being written, one of my biggest regrets [I]was the time we missed rekindling our relationship[/I]. That he had passed so unexpectedly before we could regroup from the mess having two drug addicted daughters brings to the table.............we didn't have the time to heal. It was hard enough for me to process, I can't imagine how a 17 year old is supposed to. My son turned 15 the month is dad died. It is such a tender age for a boy to lose his father. Hang in there Billiesue. (((HUGS))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
