Mrrzy, this is great news! Please extend my best wishes to him. I admire him greatly for taking this important step. It is likely to be the most important thing he has ever done or will ever do. I am happily cheering from the sidelines.

All good news, Mrrzy. My co-worker's nephew also made it into detox and a facility for helping recovering addicts.
Wish I had good news on my son but maybe in time.

And the song is something about somebody being on the couch... kind of a One less pair of jeans upon your door flavor? Ring any bells?

Thought I'd let you know - he's still sober! I'm very proud of him.

Mrrzy-

I like to hear a positive update.

It's not easy but if it's what he feels he needs to do it can be done. One of my best friends was both a smoker and an alcoholic and was close to death 20 years ago. He managed to shake both addictions, first alcohol and then smoking, with some help from friends 15 years ago and still walks this earth.

That is good news! It's a hard battle that needs to be fought daily. I wish him continued victories and you peace of mind. He is lucky to have you in his family.
