busting out... I am glad I stopped in and got to read that you are seeing some positive changes to your sitch.
It sounds like he is starting to have a lot of realizations... but I think it may still be some time yet before you really see him ready to AT on it. It has been mentioned before in many places across the board that they are rather slow at times. Something they hear from you or that they say themselves will take some time to settle in and result in actions quite often.
What you've been doing is clearly working. I would just keep being consistent with the things you have had success with and not be too eager to push. He needs to feel like HE is the one in control and making the decision to reconnect with you and the family. Let him have some time to set the pace.
Remember, when you pursue it often causes them to pull away. So just be patient and let him make his way back.
Good luck!
