I am a mother of an alcoholic in his late 20's. I've received glimpses of my son deteriorating over several years. I've had conversations with my son, warned my son of the potential repurcussions of his actions, pleaded with him to change his lifestyle, gotten angry with him...The range of the emotional roller coaster made me feel helpless. Finally all of the consequences I was trying to prevent my son from facing happened. He had gone to jail twice in a year, CPS got involved to protect my 3 year old grandson, and his rights to his son is under supervision for a limited time each week. This was devastating but also a blessing in disguise because that was my son's rock bottom. He was tired and ready for a change.
My sister recommended Anaheim Lighthouse because their friend went there for a month. Their friend is now a better husband, father, person. I went down the rabbit hole of looking up rehab facilities, reading reviews - some of them were terrifying!
Finally, I called Anaheim Lighthouse and Bryan Krause picked up my call. He was very understanding as he is also a recovering addict. Bryan was not pushy. I didn't not immediately agree to send my son there as I was still contacting other facilities, but he followed up with me to see how things were going. I finally pulled the trigger. I made arrangements for my son to be picked up. My son stayed in the facility for approximately 30 days. He went through 5 days of detox, and had only positive things to say about the staff, the food, and the support he received.
It's only been a few months since my son started his sobriety road, but he's been attending AA, has a sponsor, has a strong support system outside of his family, and is actively putting in the work to stay sober. It's been a breathe of fresh air to have conversations with my son and see him grow. One of the staff members from Lighthouse still checks in with my son periodically to see how things are going! I am grateful for Lighthouse helping my son with the new chapter in his life.
