Thoughts, please

My daughter has been calling me and giving me updates and that is okay. One thing that she keeps asking me is if I am happy and sleeping better at night. She used to watch Intervention and the families always said that now they could sleep when their child entered rehab. I don't know how to answer that question because I was sleeping fine before she went to rehab. I truly had given her to God and so I no longer spent my days in turmoil. A year and a half or two years ago may have been a different story, but my life is so different because I have learned to Let Go and Let God. I try to explain the concept to her, but I realize unless you are in that place, you can't understand. So although I am happy for her that she is trying, I am also realistic because of all that I have seen on these forums and all that I have been through and all that I have learned throughout this from all those who came before me. Any thoughts on how I should handle her question. Hugs, Marle
