Thank you everyone. I dropped him off at the bus depot today and off he went. He was alot different this time around. Well, he has been down this road now 6 times so this may be it, or it may not be. I think he does grow with every experience.

He met a wonderful (his words) guy in jail. He was slightly older than him and they were both in isolation. They chose to be in isolation although it's tough as your locked down for 23 hours, out for one to have a shower. Guys that chose isolation are usually victimized so that's why they go there. There are no windows and my son says he found it hard to breath at times.

He said they talked the entire time and he learned so much from this guy about recovery. He was just in for a minor infraction as he breached his probation. He told my son that his parents are both deceased and that he is really lucky to have a Mom who is there for him. Nice to know. I actually managed to meet this young guy as when we were downtown getting my son's bus ticket we saw him and my son introduced us. He seemed really happy to meet me. My son said it was meant to be that this person came into his life when he did. Wow! Take these wonderful serendipity moments when we can. I'll keep you posted.
