I just want to thank all of you for your responses and for your positive support. Our son has called both nights since he left, I think he is feeling very alone and confused.

I hope this place is supportive. He sounds as though he doesn't have a clue on how to begin there. I know this kid pretty well, and I have a feeling he isn't asking many questions to let people know he needs help with direction, how to get a job, how to get somewhere with no car. Maybe he's getting more than I suspect, but I know he is without any money except for about $50 I left him with to begin on.

But I know that many others have started out clean on much less. At least he went in with clothes on his back and a family who supports him in his efforts.

For whatever reason, this has not been an easy week.

Take care, and my prayers are with all of you in your
own situations,

Love,
Bets
