T did admit it to J

I guess I could only take in so much when J was telling us about T.  I talked to J today about the heroin and he said that T did admit that he did "tried" it again.  Although he told J that he isn't doing it anymore - T's friends gave J the impression that he still  is.  
Now that my husband seems to be willing to do what I think we need to do..... I am having a difficult time with it.  I am not sure what to do and as the therapist said "I don't think you're ready yet, either".  I thought he doesn't know me." Well, maybe he does! 
My thoughts:  Give him some options - drug testing, AA, and open to treatment or if he can't abide by these - he can't live here anymore.  Much easier said then done.  Sigh

The therapist I talked to said I should set the boundaries and hold to them. Well, before the kid got arrested this last time, her color came up for a UA and she wasn\'t going to go, I knew she was using. I said you\'re either going to go drop your UA or you\'re leaving this house. She went upstairs and slit her wrist open. This, I believe, was her way of negating my boundaries. Sometimes when momma bird pushes the baby out of the nest it doesn\'t fly, it splatters on the ground. Everything is much easier said than done! God bless, don\'t give up.!
