Thanks Portia for the encouraging words...I have been really looking at me, my actions and words, with everyone. And while I am not sure what the outcome of this is or if I would want what is presented I want to ensure that I am not the root cause of more hurt, damage, pain, etc...
My guess is that no matter what I did, his choices are his, not mine...but, if there was a chance that he does get through his crises and would want to return home, I want to know that I did the best I could.
