i am devastated for you. i'm glad you were blessed with those happy, healthy two years - the pain of addiction makes the good stuff huge. you have experienced what so many of us fear..... our tears join yours...

this is the reality of the disease and i struggle with how to convey this fear and pain to my son. the closest he came to feeling the soul clutching fear i lived with daily was when i asked him what i should tell his daughter if he died from his choices. he chose recovery 2 years ago - struggled in and out for a year but has been drug free for a year and is building a good life. yet i still fear.....

your sharing of Chris's story has helped me as much as it has pained me. you and the children and all of his friends and family will be on my heart and in my prayers. love and comfort and prayers are soaring your way from all over the globe.
