I am the mom of a recovering addict[2 years clean and doing beautifully], and the significant other of an addict that was disconnected from life support yesterday and is slowly being allowed to go to his god. I am suffering very much today with what is going on, I really loved this man, however,looking back,he had not been the man I knew for months. My family were fed up with him, I was fed up with him, and I knew in my heart that it was time to tie up loose ends and move forward, At one time I felt we were destined to be together, the last few months I had realized we were not and although saddened, I could accept it.I would care about him as a person, but would heal. When my daughter was actively using, I was a mess, If I could have died to save her, I would have. My Keith's body is literally dying today,my pain is very very bad, but I cannot even imagine his moms suffering..
