Thank you everyone...I went thru some trying times with my son who is 20...he has been clean for 2 months and takes life day by day. And that is all I can ask of him. He wanted to quit for himself and no one else. Although I do not agree with the decisions he has made I had to stand behind and with him. If at anytime a child has ever needed the love and support of a parent it was definitely then and now....thank you!

Thanks for entering my contest, Cheryl and congratulations on your HM. I think you captured the horrors of this (and other addictions) wonderfully.

Congratulations on the HM. I knew it was a drug of some kind. Was waiting to see which! You described very well what that drug does to people.
