@[chrisotto:29401] @[chrisotto:29401] I finally worked up the courage to have a sit down with my son who was just an amazing kid in every way, star hockey player, volunteer at homeless shelters after realizing some people didn't have homes walking back with me to the car as a kid no higher than my hips. So good looking that it's hard to believe that he's real sometimes, junior year he started smoking a little marijuana at parties I didn't say anything because I did I just said be careful and it's not good for your lungs, he just smiled ya know.. then for some reason started or tried heroin and overnight he became another person, quit hockey shocked everybody, left our home his senior year age 17 moved into an apartment close by with his longtime sweetheart who also tried to help, he fought and fought and said Dad I think I'm done with this I'm gonna get help please forgive me I'm such an embarrassment aren't I? I'm a loser Dad..I said no your the opposite of everything you just said and I love you and one day when your handed that little warm bundle looking back at you you'll understand how much I love you, so last month I got into the car smiling away going to take my son out to eat lunch and have our talk. He didn't answer the door and I had just talked to him half hour earlier so I kicked the door in only to see my precious baby boy on the floor, needle in his arm dead.... the paramedics tried everything to no avail, I held him for hours until the doctors pulled me away. Two people died that day |
