report on Adam

Right now when things are bad is when God is working the most in your lives. Sometimes its hard to see but its happening, and you'll recognise that it was happening more later. For now anything you are tempted to do that is obviously wrong is Satan trying to fight against what God is doing in your life right now. Resist the Devil and he will flee from you.

I'm glad to hear that Adam is doing better. I'm sure with some time he will improve more.

Thanks for the update and keep letting us know.

we all have to stand tall

Hey Don:

Thanks for the report - sounds pretty good. Tell Adam I said, "Hey" and hope to see him back on the water soon.

One baby step in the right direction means exactly that....in the RIGHT direction. I am pleased to get this update, I do not even know you, but after reading the posts here, I cannot help but offer you encouragement. You have a TON of people willing to help and support, through thoughts, prayers, and someone to talk to....I have been in a similar roll myself, as a brother though, not a father.....PM me sometime if you need to talk. Thanks.

I saw Adam this weekend. I can see some improvement every time I see him. He was concerned that the Evil One knew where he was. He realizes that she is a problem that must be dealt with when he is stronger minded. He is occupied by helping with some construction and remodeling projects at the facility he is in.
The wife and I forced ourselves to pay a visit to the children involved. I say forced because we have to see the Evil One as well and listen to the venom she can spew. We still have not had any returned contact from the different agencies we have contacted for the childrens sake. But, I think it has done some good. They look like they are in better care; and, the house is not quite as nasty.
I don't remember if I have posted this or not....a kid that lived in a house directly behind Adam's died last weekend just days after Adam got into some bad dope. He was 21. Like I have said before, all of the remedies I can think of will get me in jail. I know who is spreading this poison. The authorities "do not have enough evidence to act". I would think one fried brain and one death would be enough evidence.
