It can be a living hell for the mothers of addicted children
Thanks for the support. It is a living hell, and I am getting much better. It's hard, awful work. It is -25 wind chill tonight, all CPD schools will be closed, I am sure suburbs as well. Exposure can happen in 1 minute. I did wish him a happy birthday today. I do realize this is not helping him. All the shelters are full, I wouldn't trust him to even go to one. I have driven him to shelters before, and he has refused. When he is out of jail, he will have no other options. Sometimes, I just don't understand how this works: al-a-non suggests letting go no matter what. Hospitals and treatment centers won't release him, unless he has an address to go to (malpractice reasons) and if on probation, they want an address, (in case of a warrant) and then I am told not to help him. I can't wrap my head around this sometimes. I know people in al-a-non and families anonymous are not alway perfect. Thank you for all your understanding .
