My loved one returns from 45 day alcohol treatment in 10 days and I welcome ALL comments from those of you who have been in my shoes. Based on good, prior conversations, she is doing well. Diagnosed mild/moderate, group leader, has a good therapist. We have been in a relationship for several years and the alcohol has tormented relational progress. She has an 11yo son who is in the care of her sister during this time. Within the last 5 days, my messages (I only left 2) haven't been returned, and that concerns me. I know the days are long and the therapy can be exhausting. Phone time is restricted, they share community phones during the last two hours of the day, 8-10pm. However, I long to hear from her and become anxious and nervous when I don't get that return call. As if something is terribly wrong. I don't understand. She knows of my unwavering support and happiness for her recovery through prior calls, a personal visit, and cards in the mail. What experiences/advice do you know about these final days? What is wise for me to consider upon her return? What support did you practice in the early stage home? Thank you SO, SO much.
