Hi Veggiemom
This is one of the hard parts of rehab. You are thinking about the rational logistics involved in how to fix your broken life. He is only concentrating on his recovery. That is all he can do right now. He is a long way from being a healthy, financially contributing, member of your family. That may happen one day. But just for today, he has to focus all his efforts on his recovery.
The down side of this is that you are left to wonder about all the practical things. Try to do that one day at a time.
God bless you Veggiemom. I know that this is a hard situation to work through. Try to have some faith that things will work out for the best.
Peace,
Gabe
