Well I woke up late.. Yes depression kicked in at 4 am stayed up until 530 alarm goes off and called into work and said I'll be in at 10. I didn't go back to sleep.. Uggg All I thought about was my son !! What can he be doing? Where can he be? Is he ok? Is he safe? Is he dead or alive? That's when I jumped up got in the shower cried out to god to save me!!! To remove that devil that is trying to defeat me. I prayed for my son and asked god to walk with him and asked god to give me peace. I finally get out. Felt good got ready left the house and enjoyed my Christian music on my way to work. I was at peace. I asked god on my way to work. I know he is better hands with you then I thought I had control of. Just give me a sign he is ok. So as my day went on 4 hours later. I get a message. My son: mom I'm ok love you take care. I just looked up and thanked him !! The man above. Will I know if he truly is? NO! I just know that I have to have faith and keep praying. Regardless of the outcome. But I have to continue to take care of me.. So now I'm with my daughter and husband enjoying a great combination pizza and family salad. I truly have peace right now. I know my son is not dumb and I know he knows recovery..! I also know the three C's. And regardless I need to be ok. God bless and thank you for reading.
It's a one day at a time program and you did the right thing for yourself today. Our adult children can and will take care of themselves if we just leave them alone and let them work it out one way or another. This message from your son is telling you something...he is thinking about your health because he knows your worried so just try and do what he says and take care because I know for a fact is will help them not to be worried about mom.
(((( hugs ))))

Wow! A share about you and what you did for you, Gaby! Love it! Glad to see your HP is there to do for you what you can't do for yourself, too. Hope the pizza was tasty and you and your family got to enjoy each other while you were out!
Thanks for such an inspirational post about letting go and letting god. I'm glad you were able to stay present and enjoy time with your daughter and family. It gives me hope when I'm struggling with faith to hear about answered prayers. TT
