[QUOTE="branbran, post: 84650, member: 3762"] I'm so sorry about your cousin's son, what a tragedy!! God bless all of you. I believe what BBK said is true, to pick up a drink or a drug in the first place is a choice, however, after that I don't believe there is much choice in an addiction. I also believe what Janet said is true, some of us are predisposed to addiction, depends on our genes. Either way it is very sad to watch a loved one give themselves to a life of drugs and alchohol. I know plenty of people who are getting high right this very minute. Like I said it is very sad. My step-brother and step-sister were both crack addicts for years. My step-sister is drug free only because she is very sick now and on oxygen, however my step-brother still relapses every so often, he almost lost his family. His wife has left him several times. I get very nervous with regards to my own difficult child, addiction runs rampid on her fathers side of the family. My sympathy to you and your family. I will keep you in my prayers. [/QUOTE]
