So ferlin came to the house early this morning while we were headed to the library. He said "I have a problem". They teach you in alanon that is the first step for them, but to be careful not to fall back into the fixit mode. I simply told Ferlin ok, what are you going to do about it. SOOO proud of ME! He found a place a few hours later that said they would take him in for Detox.
I drove him up there, boy was that a trip! Fussin the whole way from him, I just went in to my I cant fix him zone and happily sang along with the radio. When he threw up I wont go then, I simply said well thats up to you! After all he wasnt doing me any favors!
Sooo heres where we are, he entered detox this morning, while in there they are trying to get him into a rehab program where he will go 28 days, then he should be able to come home or go to a halfway house for 90 days. As much as this is about him and Im trying to change my focus to me, hearing him say he had a problem and finally getting the help that everyone knows he needs, makes me do my happy dance, just a little one on the inside, but im still doing it.
