Nephew

by Robin ()

My 25 year old nephew, Eddie, has struggled with addiction to drugs for a number of years. The type of drug has varied as he has attempted treatment alone and with professional help. He has refused residential treatment. He has been through day programs and has experienced the faulty legal and treatment/mental health systems multiple times. He has walked out of group treatment sessions to witness drug transactions take place in the parking lot. He has been severely impaired during a traffic accident but by the time it ever gets to court, he has cleaned enough to suffer minimal consequences for actions at least a year earlier. And the cycle continues. He needs help before he kills himself or someone else. Thank you
