[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 725386, member: 19887"] Oh RN, your post makes my heart so happy for you and your husband... and your son! I imagine you were both so nervous... it’s scary to imagine them in the way we have seen them for years and know you can’t fix him. The fact he is taking his program seriously and it sounds like it’s a perfect fit for him! The other places were still a stepping stone in his journey. Maybe without them he would not be where he is recovery wise today. I am living in the moment for now with my son, and taking the good times without trying to project or analyze too much. I am just accepting him where he is. It’s hard. When he goes out at night I panic. So far he has not shown any indication of old habits or friends but it is a fear of course. We are trying to trust him, but he knows it may take a very long time. Enjoy this reprieve from fear and let yourself enjoy your son and his calls. Be open to him and to his new outlook. I think you all need some healing but it sounds like it is headed there. So so happy for you. Xoxo [/QUOTE]
