[Am I Too Late]

I'm trying to not get sucked back in emotionally.

Two nights ago, my Son asked me if i think Mommy will be getting in touch to see him soon. That triggers my parental instincts emotionally.

So, i still have not made any contact with her. I did go to her Moms grave site yesterday afternoon and said Prayers for her and my wife. My wife's vehicle was parked in the parking lot at the bar one block away that she has become a regular at, which would have been 1 1/2 hours right after her school bus route shift was done.

I then took my son to his cub scout pack meeting , followed by my home group AA meeting. My wife called during the middle of the meeting, but left no voice mail message. Since i knew she had been at a bar earlier, and left no message, it didn't warrant a return call.

She still needs to hit bottom with her drinking. Abandoning her only child doesn't seem to have made any long lasting effect. I can't fix her problems though. I'm not allowed to even try. I used to be and that still hurts.
