Laura, you and your family are so full of love that I can only imagine eventual success for you all, but the pain of getting there is so immense that my heart hurts for you all. I will be actively praying for you all, and at least that will be more positive vibes flowing your way.
Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Laura, I am so sorry. I'm holding you and Brendon and your whole family in my heart. He is so bright, and so damaged, and you love him so much, and it ought to be enough except of course it isn't.

You're a good mother, Laura.
I have two glimmers of hope here: He lets people who care about him do things to help him so on some level, for all his excuses, he knows he's in trouble and needs the help. The second is that he's living with good people who care about him and trust you - somewhere deep inside he still has the good sense and self-respect you and his father instilled in him and stays close to good people.
All my love.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Hi Java cat!

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
So sorry, Laura. What a difficult thing to struggle with for all of you.

Our wings are not tired.
Laura all I can say is that your son (both of them, of course) are so incredibly lucky to have you and Brendan as parents. Much love to you.

Thank you for the love and support. I am frustrated with him today. (understatement) I was picking him up at 9:30 to take him to find out about getting a schedule where he used to work. He messaged me at 4AM to come later because he was watching esports finals until late. I picked him up at 10:30. Took him to workplace, but apparently he isn't actually employed there anymore. The ride to and from was filled with him being miserable and filled with excuses. Then he doesn't see why he can't just work for me. Long story, more him being miserable and giving excuses. Then as I dropped him off I let him know that I found out about the OD. Told him medical staff told me and then I found the details on his "friend's" FB page. Friend I don't mind him being mad at, and he would find it abnormal for me to know the medical staff. After I dropped him I sent him a letter I wrote him yesterday detailing my concerns. Detailed my priority list of 1) getting him physically and mentally healthy, 2) getting him employable and 3) clearing his legal issues (another long story).
I'll see how he responds. I know he read it.
