recovery looks like recovery... or does it??
I say it does. I got another letter from the prison. This one is about 4 pages of all kinds of stuff. IMHO an addict who is using inside will always need more money, and ask for it in various ways. I haven't seen any of that so far. He has an "allowance" of about 20 a week from his mom. That's enough for stamps, ciggs, whatever.
I admire that he's sober but that's always been his cycle. Rehab 30 days, relapse, rehab 90 days, back to using, now sober since decemberish.
oh he'll stay sober inside... but he wants to know if he can come straight home from behind the wall...
I'm not sure about that and I'm glad I have a year and a half to decide.
I guess I'm just venting here. The drama around AH going to prison has subsided a little bit. thank goodness. there was a time there over the holidays when the family was calling every day to see if I had heard from him.
I've decided I'm ok with visiting, but my oh my....
what a journey this has been.
