    DH & I have raised our 24 yr.old grandson. At 14 he turned to pot & booze to cope with problems. He's a GFG#1. In 2005 he fell off a balcony, had brain surgery and has TBI effects. His recovery is very stressful. Time will tell if he ends up GFG or PC. Our GFG#2 is 20 and living with his GFGmom again. He is AS and S/A and not up to independent living. We have 6 adult kids & 11 grands. Yikes.
