Oh Blue! Your poor Baby! I am in tears hearing how miserable, scared, and sick he is. Where is real help for him? I hope that the rehab center accepts him, and I hope it is the answer. Why, in this country, is there not help instead of pushing our children aside when they have problems? How is a 17 year-old supposed to say that he really wants help and he's ready to give up his habits? Your son has an illness, isn't there anyone out there who is trained to really help him? I know you have tried to find answers to these questions. It just pisses me off so much that unless you are perfect and productive in our country, you have to claw your way out to find any success. Thank goodness your son has a mom that is willing to fight the battle for him.
I wish I could give you a big energy hug right now!
