Post it Note Tuesdays

Here it is, another renditions of the Post it Note Tuesday! I hope all of you that actually read my blog have a better day than I have having! :)

On a different note - I was unsure if I should blog about this or not, but I think that if I can get any advise or suggestions from anyone out there, it will be worth it!

My little brother has had some problems in his life. His dad - my step-dad - had an alcohol addiction. His relationship with my family and my mom was always on again and off again due to whether or not he was drinking or not. When he wasn't he was the best, when he was - well you know how it goes!

Through a series of events that are too lenthly in explanation for this post, he ended up dying when my brother was only 11. My brother started smoking pot and drinking really early, like 12 or 13. I full believe that pot is the gate-way drug and my brother followed that gateway to whereever it lead him.

His latest and hardest to kick addiction has been heroine. I was hopeful that when his daughter was born that he would finally have the reason he needed to quit for good! He has been through rehab - if you would call it that - that my mom's insurance offers at the hospital twice and we found out the other day that he started back up again.

My mom is so scared that she will lose him too and I think that is why she allows him to live there with a phone, a car and pretty much everything he could want - but it is enabling him to keep doing this. She says that if she kicked him out and he OD'd she would never forgive herself...but I KNOW that he will NEVER quit living there either!

I watched Intervention last night and it scares the shit out of me that my brother will go down that same treacherous road!

I do not know what I can do but I feel that I need to do something to help!

Any thoughts???
