I've been thru this with my son. He isn't diabetic but I worried about his asthma when he was in jail. He spent 18 months just sitting there and thinking. It took about 6 months before he stopped blaming his circumstances on others. It took another 6 months for him to see how deeply his situation affected me and the rest of the family. I prayed God would keep him in jail until he really, really learned what he needed to learn.
He's been clean for 2 years now and says he'll never drink again. I believe him.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that this may be the best thing that could happen to Tyler, especially if he gets the help he needs. I'll be praying for him every night as I pray for my son.
