mom-of-3

I told T he can't live here anymore.  I told him that I can't stand how he treats us and does as he pleases.  I am not feeling well - which may have added to my mood.  He said he'd leave.  I told...

I guess I have a lonnnngggg rope because I've been at this for quite some time now and I'm getting to the end of it. T didn't come home two nights ago - was gone all day yesterday and then showed up...

Okay - I am glad I wrote the letter.  I know somewhere deep inside my son knows I love him even though he isn't or can't return or show it right now.  I know it's because he's struggling with his...

This isn't about me.  It's about calling attention to the message I've been working on diligently.  On the other hand - it is kinda cool to receive this award.   A woman (whose children I taught...

Dear T,First I need to express to you how much your dad and I love you. Because we love you so much we are very concerned and worried about you.  We know that you are struggling and have fallen...

Okay - now that my husband are closer to being on the same page than we ever have been - now the real test for both of us --- can we follow through on this?  We know how stubborn our son is - we...

I found evidence and will hold onto if I need it at some point.  He had a pot pipe "hiding" under his bed. He's either becoming sloppy or arrogant.  And I cannot believe he doesn't have any remorse...

Penpal -  The comment you made about our counselor taking a "measured approach" is a good way to describe it.  I was trying to be positive and patient about how the counselor wanted us to handle...

In one way I feel a sense of relief - in another I feel uncomfortable after meeting with the counselor.  He knows that my husband and I are not quite on the same page, but did comment that we've...

Well, we have our counseling session today.  Now it will be time to put things into action.  I know what we have to do already but my husband needs to hear it from a professional.  Not sure he'll...

I am doing okay emotionally but I am concerned, of course, over T-Man.  He came home very late last night but then was up at 7:30 and went to breakfast with friends and was gone all day except when...

My instincts were correct - T admitted to me that "Yeah - I have a beer every now and then and I can handle it".  Well, maybe he can right now - but he doesn't seem to understand that this is a...

I think T is using again. I saw his facebook page.  It doesn't look like someone in recovery.....

J's pain left as quick as it came.  Man was that poor boy in agony!  And on top of it -  he had had a cyst removed from his back left shoulder blade just before his knee inflamed and wouldn't you...

J had this rheumatologist appointment yesterday and just as I thought - she couldn't diagnose what he has - yet. She did say that it could be one of two things - 1. reactive arthritis - the virus...
