Today my AS in recovery--and I sat and talked just talked--nothing special--but it was soooo special...I still can't get over the transformation.It seemed to bring back the feelings about what we always liked about each other as a mother/son. He spoke of his future-his boundries(good ones to) in a very mellow way and tone.Not much anxiety noted...made us lunch..it was nice. I kept thinking how much I wished that could/would happen for some of you...I never thought it would for me--and with my whole heart I wish it for all of you.
It was clear to me sitting across the table from him-watching and listening--that I will never tell him he may have caused this neck thing I have.
Maybe the bottom will drop out tomorrow--I still think that way--but with each passing month I feel more assured-this is gonna be the time he has really made it.
How blest am I to see this?

Thanks guys--its funny you don't get many replies when you talk about the good things that can happen-or about a good recovery--oh well I am going to enjoy it--took 14 years for it to happen!

I wasn't sure that what I wanted to say about it was appropriate. I wouldn't want it taken the wrong way. The other day when you had the meltdown, I knew it was leading to something unexplainable. It's obvious that your son loves you very much.
I think you had to be in that "place", to have expereinced what you are talking about in this one. Everything is OK and you know it. I sense your tranquility. Sometimes we pound the ground and we say we can't taken any more, God agrees.

Hey Sunflower,
That's cuz we're too busy crying and making noises like a goose
Thank you so much for sharing that. I hope my ex finds recovery some day. I still adore the woman she used to be and hearing stories like yours gives me hope. Our marriage is over but she deserves to have a recovery like your son's.
thanx again
Mike
