Pat came out of rehab last Thursday. We told him he had to find a place to live like an Oxford house.
We let him stay for a few days but his place at Oxford fell through.
I have to get him out of the house!
I took off work yesterday to drive h im around, outpatient, court, etc.
Then last night I had a migrane that was on my worst time list. So, I told him to drive himself to AA. He came home, went out, came home went out. He said he went to AA and there was not many miles put on but...
Then, at 11 last night, he had a friend come by and take him to Winco. When I told him that was not acceptable he got mad at me.
I heard him cough, just like when he smokes pot, I went downstairs and Leah was there, he said she was smoking pot. I told him he was too. He argued.
He has to go!
His dad will deal with it when he gets home tomorrow.
I never should have helped him. My calm has disappeared and I am frantic again. can hardly make sense here!
I suppose pray for him. My head hurts and I just am giving up

Pat in Rehab
I am so sorry that I have not updated for so long.
Pat went into Rehab 4 weeks ago. He is out this Thursday. He has committed to following a sober lifestyle using the AA 12 step program. He plans to live in an Oxford House. He has an interview on Sunday to see if he will be accepted.
His dad and I went down last week for the family program. It was about what I expected but really opened Mikes eyes! He and his dad, I think, decided to accept themselves and each other as flawed human beings with forgiveness for the past.
I will continue to be cautiously optimistic for now.
Lots of things went on there. Some I still haven't wrapped my head around but most of it was as expected. Thanks to my online support group, I was prepared and strong and ready!
I will talk about what happened another time. Sorry, with Mom and Pat and life, I just have not been able to keep everyone informed. I am here though and prepared to spend some time telling everyone the goings on of the past month.
