Hey Misty, it will pay off tremendously I believe. Missing the kids is tough, call often but also, write them. They will keep those letters for decades. Words will resonate for a lifetime. So, word wisely!
I also enjoyed doing crazy coloring book art for them and it was so therapeutic.
Creation is therapeutic in most any form. Create a bright future while in there. You ALL deserve this!

I agree with Josh, missing your babies will be tough, but just imagine a life, substance free and fulfilling your goals and everything you’ve been fighting for. It’ll all be worth it.

@misty311290 You got this. I can relate. Prison or rehab... Either way you're being incarcerated. Rehab gives you more freedom than prison.
For me way back in the day it was the military or prison. Again either way I was going to be incarcerated. I chose the military. It was the best decision I ever made. Granted I was "incarcerated" I still had the freedom to move about and travel.
You've made the right decision. I sent you a dm. We are hear/here for you.
