That is great news that your brother is willing to try and leave his old life behind in order that he can begin a new one :) .
Keep yourself healthy and happy, first and foremost.
It is not going to be a easy road to travel with your brother, as you probably already know.
With that being said, I sure hope that you continue to come here and talk if you need to talk.
If you would like to talk to other addicts in recovery or dealing with a family member in recovery, come on over to http://www.ccnchat.com/login.php
The room is called: "staying in today" and there is always some one around to talk to, I go there a lot find it to be a really good place to go and talk about recovery, and just conect with people that understand.
Really really hope things go well for you and all your family.
HUGS
