- not any more. Bottom line, hubbys' family knows nothing about our sons' issues. I'm sure they have a 'hint', but would be shocked to find out the extent. So now, the holidays are upon us and they have always been filled with drama, just ONCE I...
- So, after not hearing from our son for a couple weeks, and I KNOW what THAT means, he supposedly was living at his fathers house and doing some work around the house and looking for a job. Low and behold, I get a call today from him, he is signing...
- I woke up Sunday morning, got on FB and my son's 1st ex gf (the one I WISHED he'd stayed with) sent me a message to let me know that my son's old GF, the one he started doing heroin with, died of an overdose overnight. I was floored.I won't lie, I...
- SO, quick recap, son is a heroin addict, in and out of rehab. We moved out of state, new home, jobs, great new locale....celebrated Christmas via phone with our son yet again in rehab....in Jan, before his birthday, he relapsed yet again, for a...
- As most know, our son signed himself into rehab before the holidays, well, he checked himself out, just left. Because someone needed him, someone who sacrificed everything for his 'well being'. REALLY? And what are we chopped liver? I didn't say...
- As I sit here, in our new home, miles away from where our son is now in a VA recovery program, he has his 24th birthday coming up. The past 10 years have been nothing but a battle. Since he was 14, starting with drinking, then pot, then pills...a...
- Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and happy Holiday Season! It's been a busy few months for us. We sold our home, the original buyer never showed up to the close, decided he didn't want to buy, got another buyer 3 days later and closed a month...
- Oh friends, this has been an INSANE year....as you know, I had reached my ropes end and tossed out our addict son, over a month ago now....it has been AWESOME, he is doing well, he still struggles, he is doing well in school and has his own place...
- Haven't been on much as I have spent the last week cleaning out crap, packing stuff up (we are selling the house and moving to another state due to hubby getting a great job offer)....I am on a spur vacation, thanks to my boss, and got the house...
- Well, as you all know, I've been on this heroin/drugs/alcohol rollercoaster ride for about 4 years now, only one on this board, but through all your stories, all your advice and Cardinals kick in the pants LOL..(which truly are a God send!).....it's...
- THAT is the question! So you all know, I've closed the revolving door on our son after finding out he was using again. AND if THAT isn't enough, the hubby took a job in another state, so we are in the middle of packing, cleaning, and looking to...
- So, in the past month, I have come across the information from 4 people I work with that they are each dealing with heroin addicts in their life, be it a brother-in-law, a child, a sibling....but in the past 4 years of finding out about my sons...
- So, here I am AGAIN! Yup, it's been a while, but our 23 year old seemed to be doing fine....it's been a long summer, he went 'back to school' AGAIN, for HVAC and Electrical to finish off what he got in the Navy.....he held a job, here and there,...
- So, here we are. He's 23. He decides, yet again, that he is going back to 'school'. He signs up, his 1st day was yesterday all seemed okay, he got an Ipad for school, so excited. He stayed in last night....it's now the time he SHOULD be going...
- LOL...from the mouth of Charlie Sheen....but I WIN! The ex user GF that worked with me, remember? They hired her, I didn't know, got blind sided, lost it at work, totally, got reprimanded, but then turned it around and even HELPED her, played...
