Thanks for the words and prayers. It is his life. We listen, we care, we encourage and we give advice... He is on our insurance until 10/31 so I suggested now is the time to go back into medical detox, etc... Nope, will not do.
He called while I was out and told my husband he isn't doing well. I would assume he went and got some drink. He is depressed and lonely. He listens to the addiction in his head instead of pushing it aside. He reached out to his sponsor only once...
I know we have done everything we can do. He knows that no matter where he goes this will follow him until he puts it behind him. Just trying to get him to take the next step before it is too late is so hard.
He was invited to see a friend in Florida to take time away and get his head back on straight. Won't go until he "detoxes himself" by slowly cutting down... Doesn't want the coworker to see him with withdrawals... From how it is going, it may take awhile until he goes.
