Thank you for your support and I do need it at the moment. For someone who has been through the care system, you have come out well, I know its tough to be pulled from your family but sometimes (not always) it is the better option, I do know something about it. you are smart, articulate and obviously a wonderful mum, your children are very lucky. I keep saying to my son that when he is ready to ask for and accept help with his lifestyle I will be there for him, if I felt he wanted to get back on track I would move the world to get him the help he needs. You are right that once you start being harder it gets easier, it is certainly easier now he is not at home and I am being knocked up at 4.00 in the morning . I had to take his key away as I was getting up early hours and he had all sorts of people in my home and would bring female one night stands in. I had to stop it as I didn’t feel safe anymore. God so much has happened….
I went to drop some food off to him and his friend the other morning, I got him to get his friend to the door and was shocked at how he looked his eyes were wide and staring, he didn’t seem able to speak and when he did it was very soft and quet. My daughter who was with me was so shocked as she had nt seen her brother for a while and thought they both looked awful. My son has had a skin rash for some time which itches, doctor gave him anti histermines. I have been reading it can be a symptom of heroin use, which worries me…..do you know anything about this? I don’t suppose it matters what he is taking but heroin seems the worst. xx
