When is Enough, Enough?

Wow, so much has happened/is happening, it must be hard to let go.. I don't know what to say really, but I wanted to let you know I've read everything and wish you the very best. Hope to keep reading you..

((((((((((((((((((((((((())))))))))))))))))))))))))))

I hope the best for you and Matt, Pam. I think you are doing the right thing although watching him drift through life making big mistakes must hurt really badly. Hang in there!

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply. As you may have read in earlier post, my mother has terminal cancer and I've been up for about 4 days straight as we're nearing the end.

As for Matt. He did call to say he was alive. I told him I was at my mothers and the nurse was here, but that I was happy to hear from him and for him to call me again soon. Right after that call, he showed up at my house, thinking only my children would be there, if anyone, but found everyone but me there, including my husband. He said he'd just came to pick up his things. He didn't speak to any of the kids and came with a gang of "wild looking" kids as my 16 yr old put it. Then his best friend called to tell me he'd let me know if there was anything bad going on with Matt. He called me tonight, but I missed the call, doing something with my mother, I'm sure, but when I got the chance to call back, I got Matt. My sweet, caring son. I told him I was sorry for cutting him short on the earlier call, explained to him what was going on here. He seemed very concerned about me being here, handling it all on my own. I have my other 4 children scattered in the wind and as much as I love Matt, he's going to have to learn the hard way. He's trying to play it off now, to his friends, that he had me fooled into thinking he had multiple personalities, but he's only fooling himself.

I thank you all for your support!!

Much, much admiration to you all!!!!
Pam

Hey Pam! I'm glad to see your update.

First, I am very sorry about your mother. You'll be in my thoughts.

Second, I am glad Matt has kept contact with you. That sounds like a good thing to me! Here's hoping he keeps it up. You sound like you're doing the right thing, as painful as it may be. Keep your chin up and keep us updated when possible!
