This afternoon, hubby and I went back to the old house. Upon arrival, our neighbor opposite came out and chatted with hubby for a while.
It had been quite a while since this neighbor came back to his old house. I remember he left his house and went to live with his daughter in another state after his son was sent to a drug rehab for a non 12 step program. Or was it a 12 step program?
Drug addiction is a hard addiction to recover from but since the neighbor’s son was willing to get help and find the proper treatment for drug life can be restored and addiction can be a thing of the past.
Hubby’s brother was a drug addict. I had seen him a few times when hubby and I were still having our courtship.
According to hubby, his brother had been sent to drug treatment centers a few times before he successfully kicked off his drug addiction.
It’s heart-broken for hubby to see that his brother was involved in drug addiction because hubby respected his brother very much. He always viewed his brother as a hero. He could fight off a few men when he was challenged. Wow…:-)
I wonder what had led him to take up drugs ? Apparently, he was influenced by his village buddies.
Drug abuse was very rampant in small villages more than 10 years ago and still is.
