Please Remind Me to Keep My Feet on the Ground

I got to spend about a half hour with him today, and it was wonderful.  The other day I was worried because he wanted to walk somewhere rather than get a ride...I think I was over-reacting.  He SEEMS so good, so happy, so positive, so grateful.

I picked him up at probation and drove him back to his Rehab.  He has first all day pass this weekend.  All Day Freedom????  I tell myself he will be fine, and I really think he will.  But the nagging in the back of mind, those constant fears that never completely go away.  Five months is good - but he's had nine before and....well you know.

So, I have to keep reminding myself that even though I see all these positive changes, I've seen them plenty of times over the last few years.  I can't let my guard down.  I can't be too excited.

Peace, Hope and Love, Barbara
