Well, *I*......nevermind.
This was the right place for her to come and ask questions. Maybe there are times when we should look past wounded sensibilities and see the bigger picture. The details of this particular situation warranted an extra measure of compassion and understanding so that the SON might get the help he needs by providing information that we have to give. How many of us landed here asking the RIGHT questions right from the start? Isn't that why people come here? For information and support? If we can tackle someone who wants to know if they can get Hep C from the dog that licked the infected mother-in-law's underwears, surely we can dig a little bit for THE SON - who needs his mom to have the right information - it just might save his life.
A mother and son lost to each other, a mother who says she doesn't have anything left for her son but is here asking questions just the same, even if not exactly the right questions - yet - and an opportunity lost to educate and inform. How tragic all around.
hepcson - keep digging, Mom. Your son is in there and you need to "see" and feel him again and differently. Out of anyone else in the world, it's you he needs. For the rest of his life. Forget the social worker jargon and all that. Just be his Mom. Just please...never give up. Good luck with this.
My only experiment was did I get high or not. And if I didn't I was more than happy to experiment again.
I could never seem to get that experiment right.but I tried hard for years
I have a 25 year completed study.
Yeah James I experimented with drugs........for 20 years until I proved my study was complete ;)
I always get a laugh when people say they " experimented " with drugs.
