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...

Shit.  Need relief and answers.  Although I am not sure I really want to know what the answer will be. My 20 year son, J, is in severe agony and needs pain medications (Vicodin) around the clock....

Middle son was sick over a week and a half ago - fever, aches and pains, sore throat, headache, sinus - you name it.  He was sick for a good few days.  He recovered enough to have scheduled minor...

I heard back from the director at our area adolescent drug treatment center.  He said that they're VERY interested in pursuing some of the concepts that the other treatment center are doing a few...

Now that things are settled down (in the major drama department) I'm trying to get back into the advocacy "stuff".  I have some many ideas and making some progress in some of them.   In fact, I...

Had a wonderful Christmas.  T-Man was a no show for our traditional Christmas Eve Mass we like to go to as a family.  He slept at his friend's again the night before and we didn't see him all day....
