I too am only an alcoholic, and so know nothing about drugs, so I can't relate in that way. I can't imagine what it is to be on the other side of it. I truly can't. I think it takes a certain type of saint to be with people like us...ha ha. <br /><br />What you say about letting go and letting God...absolutely true. I am sure you have seen enough people in and out of the rooms who you wish you could just ask them nicely (or shake them nicely) to just STAY. But it's not our call. Sigh. It's been a tough thing for me to get used to, but I am used to it now. I used to get upset if someone didn't call me back, or if they avoided me or hung up on me when I called. They are where they are, and I can't chase them.<br /><br />But we can wait, pray and wish them the best.<br /><br />Wonderful post.<br /><br />I hope things turn out :)<br /><br />PaulAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
