((((Kath)))) I'm sorry that your son's solutions to his housing problems are problems in themselves. Does it ring true to you that he's not able to find an appropriate roommate? or that accepting a room instead of an apartment is not as good as living in a tent?
It kind of sounds to me like he isn't accepting this new reality that his disability pension has created. For me a room somewhere would be a better option than pitching a tent.
This is his decision, though, and his alone. As poor a choice as this appears to be, my take is that in a round-about way he's been wanting to get back to the familiar "people and places" where he used to use.

I'm glad that you went away (the Bruce is such a gorgeous area!) and it's perfectly understandable that you were distracted from the beauty. Keep putting yourself in places where the beauty of nature confronts you. Keep stopping on your walks to look around and notice the wonderful perfection of the world around us. Keep reminding yourself that such beauty and perfection can exist in our imperfect world.

more hugs to you,
Scratchpad
