It's not a habit, it's cool....

I can almost go two or three hours in a row until the word and the thought of it hits me again. Heroin. My son snorts heroin. And then the palpatations come and the breathing becomes difficult. And then I remember... God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can;and wisdom to know the difference. And then the breathing returns.

I will get through this. I can let go.

Happy Thanksgiving and love to all of you!!!

Kel,
Heroin sends chills down most peoples spines...even the people who have tried it or were addicted to it.But you have the right perspective...accepting you cannot change somet things in life.Especially when it comes to the actions and decisions of loved ones.THAT is a toughy.
You can always let your Prince know you believe in him and love him by giving him room to grow and sticking to your values and boundaries.I know that fear you feel.From one Mommy to another,I am with you Kel.
One day at a time really does help.
You sound like you are really moving forwards and finding your own courage to change..and sometimes Kel..that can do more to help others than you could imagine.
Sending you all the best for the holidays..peace to you and yours.
