Though it is scary, for a person who is at the end of the resources, this really is a very good position to be in. I am glad that he is finally getting treatment, even if it may seem like a drastic way to go about it. Many of us have been through or know someone who has been through this kind of thing. If we can offer our experience and insight then we will be glad to help. Keep us posted and let us know how we can help. Good luck and we send our good will to you and yours.
