[quote=Anonymous]Heroin mom here. DD is very active in NA. Last Saturday night, a 17 year old showed up at the meeting wearing khakis, Sperries, and a Ralph Lauren polo shirt. She a a couple of others took him our to Starbucks afterwards and as they were talking, it was clear he was in withdrawal (cocaine, apparently). They took him to a psych hospital that does detox and had him call his parents who arrived in shock. They thought he was at his senior prom. He is an athlete and has been accepted at a top 20 university. They had no idea he was using. Two days ago they sent him to an inpatient rehab. He won't be able to attend graduation, but luckily he had finished his classes. I can't imagine what they are going through. These parents had a son with all the achievements a parent could want and suddenly this.[/quote]
