What a morning

OK i Have to get this off my chest:

 

 

Picture this.. I get into my car after changing from weight watchers to go to the Sea Food Festival. My cell phone rings for a message so i answer it.

 

"Kelli....... this is Mike from Florida.. please call me as soon as you get this" ( Mike is my oldest son's grandfather ) By this time my heart is racing for he NEVER just calls me. So I hurry and called him back.

 

conversation goes as follows:

 

" Hi Mike it's Kelli. what's up?"

 

"Hi kelli.. first let me tell you he's alright...he's ok.....he's going to be ok"

 

Me: "what the hell are you talking about?

 

Mike: " Linda and I weren't going to call but ..Kenny ( My oldest son) was shot on the ankle and taken to the hospital and may have to have surgery"

 

Me: Oh My God.. what happened"

 

Mike: He's going to be ok.

 

So what had happened the short of the long was we're still trying to get to the bottom of it as it is still and on going investigation .

 

 

The person who was the passenger had a pistol in the glove compartment and was 'trying to put it in the case and accidently discharged grazing his right leg landed into his left ankle shattering the bone

 

I feel he needs to go to a rehab for drinking and abusing marijuana. But i'm in a quandary : He's 21. I can't make him do anything. This is truly testing my inner peace and vibes...

 

 

I just needed to vent. He's fine he talked to me before the doctors came in. I feel better not to be dealing with this myself. His dad and I are wanting to stage and intervention . I spoke it over with my father who is my subconscious. He stated before we jump into that. we need to ask him what he wants and thinks meaning is he happy with his life choices.. so I'll give him time to recover then ask him

Kelli, just take it a day at a time, as you go on the story will unravel and you will have a clearer view of what happened, what has been done, what needs to be done.  Your son has youth on his side, he may not be as wise as you would like but this incident may be a turning ppoint for him.  Treat it all as lightly as you can, use your sense of humor and remember to just love him as he is now.  Adding you all to my prayers.
