long road to recovery

I know how long and frustrating it can be. My son was in six programs and two halfway houses trying to recover from heroin. He wanted to recover but his brain kept telling him otherwise. His last stay at a recovery house ended with a call from a kind policeman who told me...you better get your son some help or he'll be dead.
He admitted to using again and went to detox. This time he left the state to a Salavation Army Rehabilitation Center. So far ...only five months and he is doing great....even wants to stay there and work/go to school. It's different for everyone. Something has to click for them. I pray that this is it.
