I lived out the story with my little brother who was also my best friend. We were as close as brothers can be until about 30 yrs old. He lost all interest in things he once loved "hunting,fishing etc" and became a stranger to me.I tried tough love and every thing I could think of over the course of about 6 yrs.After not answering the phone a couple of days my found him in his living room floor past away from an over dose.It's been 7 yrs this past Jan 21 and I still think about it daily and it has changed my parents life forever. I pray that you guys with children going thru it realize it'sa choice they've made and it's not your fault. Most of all I pray that they are able to break the addiction and return to their normal walk of life.
