My son


I feeling a bit down but  OK.   My son is now drinking 24/7 so I'm sure he's is in pretty bad shape.  It's so sad. I wanted to see him for Christmas but it's not going to happen.  I don't think he even knows it's Christmas.  He talks about nothing....only bits and pieces  of the past.  He really doesn't know what he's saying most of the time.  He crys a lot missing his family but doesn't remember anything the next day. 

I pray that he will find his way and find God...  It might be too late  I can only pray 

Just needed to get out my thoughts right now. I love him so much and he's killing himself right before my eyes and there is nothing in this world I can do....

Cathy,
Sending support and best wishes your way. I know how hard it is, especially at this time of year. We had a blizzard Thursday and I wasn't able to make my f2f meeting, so I've been listening to Al-anon speakers online. If you Google "Alanon speaker podcast" you can find them and download them. They have been helping me a lot, along with MIP and my Alanon literature. Sending prayers out for you and your son. I hope that regardless of where your son is right now in his disease, that you can find peace this Christmas and that you know you have support here.
Mary
