Sara - thanks for the suggestion of Retrouvaille. I spoke with him about it and I think he will go - it's a matter of timing. His sis is coming to visit up the same weekend of the next session and there isn't another until September! SD - it's hard not to be judgmental when it feels like we're stepping backwards sometimes. I really do realize how much he's doing and how far we've come. But there are those moments when I think he just wants to walk right back into my life and pick up where we left off as if nothing changed. I sometimes want to scream: When is it my turn? I believe it will come - it's just tough and I know I do things that make him wonder whether it makes sense for him to return. His choices are also difficult. For a while, he had a good friend but the guy moved to Costa Rica. His only interests are self-focused like books, computers, painting - none that offer him the escape of getting out of the house. I still do this - but he doesn't. It really isn't healthy but what do I do?
