Kindeyes and Puddinface - I did not make my earlier post to generate unwarranted fear, but rather to remind people on this site that the worst COULD happen. It probably won't, but it COULD, and as we who love addicts weigh our courses of action, recognition and consideration of ALL possible consequences should be considered.
Puddinface, your answers to my questions make it clear to me that you did the right thing. You have been dealing with your son's addiction for far longer than I did, and he is older - my AS was only 19. Best wishes for peace and serenity in your decision, and for your son's ultimate recovery.
