Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't, I give myself reasons why I can. - Unknown

Mike, Meg and Alex are on their way for Mike to check into the rehab facility around 2pm. It's known as a good one that has free year long after care - when the patient leaves.
I am very proud of him and scared for him too. Thankfully, his addictions were not daily - he could go for days without alcohol or cocaine - but, couldn't kick them both by him self.
I am going up to help Meghan with Alex - as I think Meg will have to work some of Mike's hours. I would have gone today - but, I need to get a tooth checked that is now sensitive to hot and cold. I don't need to get there and have a root canal from a doctor I don't know. My dentist wasn't in today - so, hopefully he can take a peek in the morning.
I know that this is a facility that works with their insurance company. He is reevaluated every 7 -10 days to see if he can leave. If he needs to stay then his insurance will kick in for another 7-10 days and so on. I just want him to stay as long as HE thinks he needs. Shoot - I would do what's necessary to pay for more treatment, if necessary. I just want him to get better.
I appreciate your prayers for my boy. He's going to be thirty in one month. The best gift he can give himself is a drug and alcohol free life.
Keep those thoughts and prayers coming, if you will. I know it helps.
