Hi Cloudy - so glad that at least you have your Dad who understands, and tells you he's proud, etc. That is WONDERFUL.
Yeah - it'd sure be nice if the rest understood & especially your boyfriend!!!
Why don't you think they'll give you the job?
> Hi Kath! How are you? and your son?:-))) I'm doing pretty well, considering....
My son hit some kind of a 'bottom'; has been living with us since the end of June, when his roommate kicked him out because he 'didn't want to live with an addict'.
I was away on my "Kath's week away" camping at the time & he phoned my husband & asked if he could stay here for a bit. He said he was addicted to cocaine & needed to go into rehab.
Last Monday son had his 'intake meeting'. We learn tomorrow if he is accepted into the program.The problem is, that he doesn't want to stop all drugs & alcohol - just cocaine, really. He said to me a few weeks ago that his goal would be to only do drugs a maximum of once a month & only at a music event (as well as on his birthday & New Years)!!! It is sorta ludicrous in a way, although his caseworker at mental health, who specializes in addictions doesn't seem to think so. She says that he can still benefit from what he'll learn in rehab.
I am REALLY nervous about the decision tomorrow.Thanks for asking. Nice to see you.
HUGS Kath
