I am super happy for my guy and all he is trying to do currently he is in 4 classes 2 to get lump sums and 2 just to help himself the two he chose to take is for relationships and one for fathers. He started the second lump sum one today and I am really happy but I won't be hearing from him as much which will be hard. I shouldn't complain I know most ppl don't get to even talk once a day but I'm used to 2 to 5 calls a day. But he will be busy with 2 classes a day as well as a job in the store they have which is open at lunch and dinner most days. I know all this is helping him and us but time just seems like it's stopped and hearing from him less will be hard I know ill get through tho. Sorry this is alot of rambling haha
Miss him ha if he only knew how much I miss him!
I know it will be okay though he is doing all of this to come home sooner which means everything to me!
I don't know what the LUMP SUMS you are talking about, but I gather it is something like a program to get out sooner, maybe????
My fiance's treatment program did help him immensely. He came home a different man. He took it very seriously, and to date, he is a man determined to succeed out here, this time.
Yes, he did drink twice, a few, but they made him sick, and he hated himself for doing it. He taught himself a lesson by doing it. The lesson was that he didn't want to give up how much he had accomplished for beer.
The treatment program he was in taught him why he drank, why it wasn't the way to continue.
I think that the programs your guy took are great. Anytime a guy wants to take a relationship class and a dad class, that means that man is wonderful. Many would never admit they wanted to work on those areas. They would think they were just fine the way they had been.
I think yours will find ways to still call often. They get used to it to. Mine said it really helped him get through his days knowing he could hear my voice at any time.
