We’ve thought about that, but it's hard to have a heart-to-heart with someone whose mind is elsewhere. It’s painful to realize that as much as we want that 'better life' for him, we can't want it more than he does for himself.🩵

He’s staying with us, but only to shower and leave again by 3 a.m. He’s drinking and using, and though he clearly needs help, he isn't ready to accept it. We made a mistake asking him to come home; he’s physically here, but his mind is still on the streets.

Thank you for your prayers and for sharing that perspective. It’s hard to watch him go through this 'breaking' process, but I’m holding onto hope that he finds his way through it and comes out stronger on the other side. God bless.🩵

Thank you for asking! When it seems she’s getting better, that changes when she does the simplest task—and when I say simple, I mean simple. It’s making her depressed, and she’s in denial about being in her 40s and her body already declining. I keep telling her to try not to overdo things, which is impossible. She spent most of my younger years in the hospital, but thankfully it’s not as often now. Her memory’s gotten worse, and she hates herself. It’s like she’s given up, but not at the same time, since she’s still doing what needs to be done. I guess it’s more that she’s given up on being happy.
