Hi Diane, it is tough having an addict and then on top of it in + out of jail.
I always offered rehab to my son and he took me up on it 10 weeks ago. Of
course to do this we have to be willing to pay for it.
Maybe your son will be ready when he is released if there is a plan to offer him.
Often addicts "age out" around your son's age and surrender to treatment.

You've been through this w/ him for so many yrs. I bet you are just warn out.
No matter how old they get as Moms we always hope for them to be healthy
and live a decent life. Your son's time for this might come.

I bet you know all the rules for detachment...I hope you are able to put them to practice
so the the worry doesn't stress you out.
