The rehab does allow you to bring food in. I checked with his counselor.

For some reason I have this reason that no matter what I do (even buying toiletries) he will not appreciate his recovery seriously. I don't know.. I might be going out on a limb here... maybe it's just me... maybe I'm still internally angry with all that has been done to me while he was in active addiction. Even though I didn't have myself wrapped up in his addiction long because he got thrown out or cut off with each relapse immediately, I still feel that any help I give him will be taken for granted. I guess I will feel that in some little way I'm giving him that room to manipulate me. AHHH! SCREAM!! Damned if I do, damned if I don't.

By the way, he's doing really well in rehab and accepting the treatment. First week in was whine, whine, whine but my last visit with him was peaceful and not all about him.
