My son wants to come home
After living for 10 years with my son's addiction, he moved out the day I joined SR. I had limited contact with him through this time, but knew he went from his (now ex-) girlfriend, to an older woman to his dad. I just received the email I knew would come one day. His dad has kicked him out and he wants to come back.
Thanks to my years on SR, I could send him a loving letter telling him how much I have learned about addiction and enabling and that I could not do that anymore. I told him that if he needed help to get into rehab, I will be willing to assist, but that is all I have to offer him.
I told him that I loved him very much and that I place him in God's hands every day. I wished him well.
I am still very sad, but at the same time I know I did the only thing that would be really helpful. I pray to God that he may find his bottom. But I also know that even if he doesn't we will still be ok.
Thanks to everyone on SR who have been here for support, day after day.
