P.S.  You NEED to be as HONEST with the doctors as possible... they are there to help but CANNOT if we are NOT HONEST...

Just tell them WHAT YOU KNOW... and even WHAT YOU THINK YOU KNOW..

THE more information the doctors have... the better equiped they are to help..

OH sweet pea.. my heart goes out to you.. (I too have a son)

First off... let me ask.. how old is your son?

Second... do you KNOW what his drug of choice is.. AND how much he is using..

Third... He will be in a GOOD PLACE... a hospital... which can help him.. and you..

And....Try and remember that "DENIAL (DE-NILE) is NOT A RIVER IN EQYPT!:  
Your son is gonna lie to you... maybe cheat... steal from you ....and BREAK YOUR HEART....but it's all part of a process to HIS road to RECOVERY...

Don't mean to sound harsh.. but just trying to be realistic...

If you have the strenght right now... locate a local ALANON meeting...it will help you see that you are NOT ALONE!!!  

God Bless you and your son... My heart goes out to you
Always and Forever!
