Default Re: My little Bro has turned up.

So far my bro is still on the right path. He's clean. He's working at my aunts church. He had hernia surgery. Its crazy what drugs do to you. He's a 27 year old OLD man. Part of me is still waiting for him to screw up. We(as a family) haven't let him talk to or see his son. He hasn't been apart of my nephews life in at least 3years. My nephew is turning 7 in Feb.

If you really care I would suggest going to al-anon or nar-anon. If you can not leave your house please go to this site....

My brother was also a heroin/meth/cocaine/alcoholic/name any drug addict. He is in jail right now for writing bad check and as sad as it is, it's the best place for him. I hope he stays clean. You are in my prayers. I have seen too many people die from addict and I am so happy to hear your brother is sober. One day at a time.

Any advise to help him heal?
I hope and pray her gets better.

Really sorry Fal, that's horrible.

He deserves us being proud because that is hard to quit. I know we are lucky though and I will pray for the other familes who aren't.

Default Re: My little Bro has turned up.

*UPDATE* About three weeks ago my bro fell off the face of the earth.....again. I'm so sad for him that he made it all that time and the blew it. It's so agravating. I honestly felt in my heart in the beggining he wouldn't make it. I never told him that though. Damn it.
