Dr. John agony auntThink about what a verse in the bible says; "Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

Just don't lose contact with him. Visit him when you can.

Talk to him and tell him what you have written here.

I am sure if you have this kind of relationship with him already he won't let the bond between you die out. Doc

bfly36 agony auntDo not hate him Drug Addiction is a disease and many people try to stop for years, its really hard. However if he goes to a good drug program he can stop using drugs. he has been good to you talk to him when u visit him and let him know how much this has hurt you and remember you have nothing to do with this he is an adult and he needs to find help. You can write to him and in some cases if allowed visit him.

People make mistakes and learn from them. Take this as a lesson that drugs r no fun thing and can cause problems not only for people but there familes too. I grew up in an alcoholic family. ALL the men where. they were in jails, detox, hospitals, u name it and its not fun. Good Luck and stay strong!!
