Fortunately life moves on.
For M, his life will never be the same. But he is getting on with it. He got together with a couple of high school friends a few weeks ago and had a chance to relax. He is enjoying his job and is making friends there. He joined a D&D group which is expected to start playing in the next couple of weeks.
He is conscious of having to repost to the state police every 3 months and even has a reminder on his phone so he does not forget.
He says he will never find a woman who will accept him and I hope that is not the case. I know there is a nerdy girl out there who will love and accept him for all of his flaws and mistakes. At least I hope that is true.
He is still pretty nervous about getting out and meeting people. He is afraid of them finding out and not being accepted.
Family is, well, difficult at best. My BIL has kind of sort of accepted M. He has told M that he should call my SIL (his wife) and apologize. Which is absolutely insane and NOT happening! So family get togethers are minimal to non existent, which honestly I am fine with.
In good news, we found out that we will be getting a new grandson in a few months! We were pretty surprised since our oldest and his wife have not been able to get pregnant and determined it would just not happen. We are thrilled! Of course!
Easter is this weekend. I am reminded that this is a season of rebirth and growth. God is good. Always.
