An Addict In Our Son’s Bedroom: Milestones

Milestones

Effective today, June 10, 2013 Alex is no longer under ANY government control. He has met and satisfied all probation (early) and he is no longer under probation for ANYONE. He has paid off all of his fines.

For every parent or addict out there reading this, there is life after. BELIEVE! Believe in yourself and make it happen. There is no one too far gone that they can't accept recovery. Parents or addict, it can happen for you. Day by day hope and love is all around.

In reality - he had not had 2 years of "good behavior",... as your son has - but hasn't been arrested in 2 years, which is a milestone -I'll take it. Hoping my son can continue on such a true path of recovery as yours has. Good on Alex. So happy to read this.; June 10, 2013 at 8:17 PM

WELCOME

We want to welcome you to our blog. This blog is principally going to be about parenting a drug addict. However as parents of drug addicts know they take up about 85% of your time, worry and stress, but there are other good things going on too.

My wish and goal for this blog is that maybe we can help you or you can help us. Feel free to e-mail us if you wish to comment or want to chat personally. Please if you want to post comments (good, bad, or indifferent) they will be very much appreciated.
