I wanted to take a few minutes and touch on something. The coming months are going to be the most challenging the *Lost and Tired *family has ever faced.
Our journey is going to be taking a dramatic turn and I don't know what that is going to result in.
While I will do my very best to remain hopeful, it will be a very fragile hope.
I know the reality and gravity of the situation. I know that no matter what we do, he can't fix the parts of Gavin that are broken.
Having said that, I'm *hoping* that placing him into treatment will give him a chance to overcome, at least some of these obstacles. Maybe he can at least come to understand his situation better and simply become more aware.
That's something, right?
In any event, I have decided to be as transparent and honest as possible throughout this entire process. Much the same way I am already.
The reason for this is that I know there are others out there going through something similar. I want them to see that they are not alone and that there are others out there, navigating the same system.
Lizze and I are fully aware that this entire process may be for not. We proceed anyway, out of love for Gavin, even though the odds are not in our favor.
We want something good and positive to come from this heartbreaking situation, even if that something positive is simply being able to be a beacon of light to those that will be following in our footsteps.
Something good has to come from this. Even if all we manage to do is give someone else a fragile hope.
