The Truth Box: Tough Month



Tough Month

It's been a while. I survived Family week so I guess I need to continue my normal life which consists of trying to blog on a more regular basis.

We look like we might have turned the corner. All of us. That's why I said "we". What we used to hear that sounded like complete desperation on the other end of the phone, now has a bit of lilt to her voice. Her ease of oppression transfers readily to us and we are all a bit happier.

Of course she is still in her bubble and while she has more freedom to make bad choices she has a huge safety net to catch her should she fall. When she comes home, that net will look completely different. Different landscape (no more coyotes and javelinas), different treatment team, different house rules, different friends. There is one constant ... her creator.

He was in the desert with her, I trust He will be back here when she meets friends at Steak N Shake or Chipotle. I hope He rides around in her car and walks with her in the halls at school. She is gonna need Him now more than ever.

I think I can do it alone but I am always proved wrong. She knows she can't do it alone. Its just a matter of who she leans on for help. We, as her parents, will certainly fail her but I'm kind of thinking He won't.

Coming down the final stretch,
Caroline
