I would if I were alone. My 2nd husband and I retired to a 55+ community almost 10 years ago. He is a skilled craftsman and did so much work on our home and simply loves it here. He would never returned to a city environment and the cost of living is less expensive here. However, my son can sell his condo and live anywhere since he works from home. There is nothing for him where he has been living for 4 years. Complete isolation. The "perk" for him is his psychiatrist who prescribes the medication he abuses...but he also flies to Canada to see a former psychiatrist (he lived there for 3 years for work), pretends he still lives there and gets more of this medication, also prescribed. So he is doctor shopping. 2 psychiatrists, 2 different countries. Because he is taking a controlled substance he could never do this in the US. There would be a red flag warning. Of course, he could always buy on the street but he is smart enough to know how dangerous that is.
My prayers are going unanswered now for 3 1/2 years. I don't know why. Sometimes I think I am being punished, again, I don't know why. I will address it all when he comes to visit at Christmas (hopefully he comes) but know he will deny, deny, deny. And I very well might lose him...never seeing me again. Addiction will take over, that's his priority now. Not having a relationship with me. My heart is broke and there is nothing I can do. He and he alone must change himself. I don't know what it will take for this to happen.
