Unhappy DS Made it to Florida REhab

What a trying day. I took DS to the airport, and he is terrified to fly, never did it before. Not to mention that he was high this morning, and on his way to rehab in Florida. I got a call a bit ago from the counselor there that they got him at the airport and he was on his way to Detox. He'll stay there for about 5 days he thinks. I asked if they detox with Suboxone but he wasn't sure. He did say that they wouldn't let him go cold turkey. I know this is going to be really rough week for him. Does anyone know the Detox drill? What will it be like for him and what exactly they will do for him/give him to aide in the discomfort.

I sent a card in his with a pic of my parents. Their death was the beginning of his downfall I believe, many years ago. We had talked awhile back about NA and Higher Power, and I had read and told him that it didn't have to just be God, it could be whatever he wished. I told him to think of Grandpa as his higher power. He like that idea.

Thanks for being here.
