Dear Ben,
We can drive ourselves crazy with that question, can't we? And how hard
to watch your child go through something like this (for me, harder than
going through it myself). That "the rain falls on good and evil alike"
is little comfort. Let yourself grieve over this change of life plans;
try even journaling some of your anger and disappointment. In my own
journey, I got a lot of comfort from the Psalms when I saw how David
freely expressed himself to God -- even (especially?) the "ugly"
feelings, and somehow still ended up praising and at peace. Following
David's example, I have ranted and raved to God many times since, and
have always been answered in remarkable, surprising ways. You and Mavis
are in my prayers, friend. please don't give up hope. Love, Joicy
