My little brother is a full blow Heroin junkie and the ripe age of 27. He has been to county jail five times, almost lost his foot to infection from shooting up, drained my parents for over $100k and that's not the half of it.

I want to beat the [bleep] out of him every time I see him. My mom is a total mess and this whole ordeal has taken years off her life.

I never realized how much this drug has taken over. There's kids dying everyday around here from it.

He met his match yesterday, had a parole violation, went to court and the Judge sent him to Prison. I am relieved because he is not going anywhere, don't have to worry about him shooting up and my parents hopefully will get a nice long break.

Anyone else struggle with this in their family?
