INtervention
 
OK, I did it, I told my hub it's a 30 day treatment faciliy or we are done. He agreed to go after a yucky bender this weekend. We did the intervention with a therapist on MOnday. He goes to a facility on Friday. FOr now he is staying in a hotel with the interventionist bc I told him he is not safe for our baby.
So I am taking care of ME, enjoying my peace. I know I cannot put any stock in the outcome of what will happen but I set my boundaries and that is the good thing.

Good for you on making a decision and following through. That isn't easy. I hope that your AH is sincere as he goes into the recovery program and that he brings about the needed changes. I hope you and your baby find peace and healing.

Actually, really well. It didn't take much convincing at all. It seems like he is ready but what matters is I AM READY!!!! Ready to be free, ahppy, and healthy. It is amazing the peace I feel after living in that chaos. You really don't know how crazy it is until it is over.

Isn't that the truth! I live in craziness for 15 years! It truly is a new life.

Peace and contentment to you!
