Meth, Destroyer of lives and Families....

This blog is dedicated to my oldest son, who is in State correctional facilities because of his involvement in Meth. It has broken my heart, wounded his children, and touched so many lives. I wasn't going to write about my son, but have decided that i know most people here will understand as life happens to us all and we are all interconnected somehow, someway. So, my heart hurts with the pain and lonelieness that my son experiences as he writes me and I receive his letters gladly but they make me weep so.crying

Big hug to u hug
Thank you my good friend, Bambina. It is good to have a hug, once in awhile!!hug
C...am very sorry for the pain that not only you feel but that of your son as well. I lost a good friend to meth...he lost everything and eventually his life.
Very courageous of you to share your story. hug
i am actually almost glad my son ended up in prison instead of dead.......not a good consolation prize, but the lesser of two evils....he should get out in about four years for good behavior as he already had a year and a half in county...
Definately the lesser of two evils...he will have a chance to do something with the rest of his life and I can tell that you love him...that, I am sure is a great comfort to him.
take carw Calli, my heart is with uteddybear
Ta Roxana, I am ok. Just a little melancholy after reading my son's letter.sigh
Hey Funx, where is Buttholeville, anyway???laugh rolling on the floor laughing
LMAO! Buttholeville is everywhere. It's that little ol' place where not only does eveyone know your business they insist on butting into it too!
OOhhh, it's at my job then....laugh
I need to give credit where credit is due...Buttholeville is the title of a cool song by one of my fav bands the Drive by Truckers
At first sight it may weigh heavily that he knew what it can do.

But this gets relative because they all knew and know what they did and do without consequences, or maybe some money paying if at all.
E.g. using Agent Orange in Vietnam. Contergan in Germany. So many examples in all branches of society.
right away before even reading all of the responses i wanted to say to u girl to hang on...to detach w luv...to be there for him but also for yourself...hopefully he is getting the help he needs while he is there...that hopefully is some consolation for you...i am glad u reached out u need support and luv and hope and grace which i pray we all bring to u...blessings onto u my dear friendangel u all shall b in my prayersangel hug
Hi Calliopesgirl, I am sure every thing is gonna be alright in time! hug comfort
hang in there and go get the help and support u need to get thru this...angel
Calli, I am sorry to hear about your son blues Sending hugs to you comfort hug hug hug bouquet
Dear Calli, I do sicerely hope that when he gets out he will finally realize the mistake he made . I also hope that he is in rehab while he serves his sentence . I do also think that it is an irony that you wish him to be in prison instead of dead . Some choice !

You do know that you are a part of the Cs family here and if you are feeling down or just need a hug and a kiss we will be here . . . .

hug kiss hug kiss
Calli, the lonelieness that he feels now might just be what he needs to get his head cleared of everything and allow him to think over what his life has been and where the meth would have taken him. This could be a positive experience for him so keep supporting him and keep loving him. He needs you and his real friends. Things will work out. hug

Yes, meth is as bad as crack, if not worse. Somehow, though, crack gets more attention in the media confused
