((((Moose))))

more mom hugs heading your way.

You are doing good and your detaching skills seem to be on high alert which will help you.

Although I know for me it never completely breaks that connection which feels the pain for our children.

Prayers going out to you and your son today.

(((Moose)))

I know this is difficult...
Prayers going out to all of you, including your son who is hurting.

You shouldn't feel bad/sad for him. I know, because I did too much of that myself.
But, are you *sure* you don't want to write him or talk to him?
I'm not telling you what you should or shouldn't do, Moose.
I just don't want you to be sorry later on.
We *can* detach with love. Communicate without giving in.
Yea, it's hard. But, it's possible.

I'm very very sorry if I've overstepped my bounds.
Because I *do* know what you're going through right now. I've been there too. And it hurts to know that our children are going to prison; locked away and not getting the help that they need; they deserve! (I'm glad you wrote that in your letter, too!) So, forgive me, Moose, if I've poured salt in your wound. It was not my intent.
I just never want you to regret what might have been...

Shalom!

Hugs and love and prayers coming your way. You have been such a trooper!! I just try to hang onto the idea that God is in charge and has a plan. And maybe this will be The Time for your son to get the right kind of help.

Sometimes this kind of letting go feels almost impossible to me. And then I get a lift from a call from a friend - or an email - or something that jumps out at me from one of our books.

Please keep us posted.

Love in recovery,
Jody Hepler

Thinking of you, tonight, Moose. However it went, his HP is with him.

Prayers going up for you, Mr. Moose, and your son. I'm glad that you were able to write the letter and I'm glad that you are doing what you need to do to take care of yourself.

Lots of love and hugs

(((((Moose)))) You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. I know it isn't easy...at all, but you are doing well and what you have to do for all of you. Many hugs.

Didn't hear a peep, but I'm sure I will eventually....

Teach, you never have to worry about saying how you feel to me, you couldn't ever say something that wasn't in my best interests, I feel like I know you, that well.

And yes, I will write back to him if he writes, but THIS time, he can find his own paper, and envelope...seriously, he makes enough money designing and doing tattoos.

And you know how us moms are all wishy washy, angry at them for having poor choices, then the next minute opening our heart. Hate the disease, love my drug dependent son...

For yours too.

Okay, heard a second hand peep, he called my sister.

Him and his attorney have decided to take it to trial.
That will occur on August 7th.
Supposedly, the tapped phone conversation, is distorted, and some 5th felony is incorrect, and all that kind of stuff. (what do I know about this...NOTHING)

So stay tuned...it may be on Tru TV...JK!


Thanks for all of your hugs and prayers...

May G*D's will for the best for your son come to fruition.
And soon, damnit!

Shalom!

Adding another amen to that and prayers for serenity in the Moose habitat.

Hoping things works out as your sons HP intended. Keeping your family in my prayers.

(((moose))) and family included in the hugs too!

I'm sorry to hear about your son, and at the same time, I hear a Mom! A Mom doing what she knows is right! Again (and again and again), the parents here astound me and make me wish...

Keep on doing what you do! You, the Mr. and family! Prayers and hugs to all

Hi Diane....


BIG MAMA HUGS.... (((((Moose))))))


You know I've been out swimming in my own chaos lately, and didn't see this until today. Please know you and your boys are in my prayers. HP is taking him exactly WHERE he needs to be, exactly WHEN he needs to be there.

My sponsor told me once about my kids going places I didn't want them to be - perhaps there is someone there he needs to meet, or something there he needs to hear. HP can see the path better than can we.



Your recovery is a shining light to me, Moose.... know you are loved.

I'm sorry you were dealt this hand. Stay strong.
