Our stories should be published, the majority of parents are lucky never to be in our situation. How can anyone say your son has mental capacity when as you say he wants to leave hospital with no shoes, coat, money and half his skull missing. I have been disgusted by the lack of help my son received even after asking repeatedly. The awful people who dole out these drugs had a powerful hold on him, exploiting him for money. I did my best to keep a roof over his head and him in work as I felt I’d really lose him if he was made homeless but it’s a double edged sword as I found he was basically working to hand his money over. I found my son on 19 June 2020, he had hung himself or someone had assisted I am unsure which. It’s a nightmare world when you have a child in addiction, as you say that original person has gone. Addiction not only killed my son but has killed me and my daughter, it will affect his little girl as she grows and for what………my thoughts are with you all look after yourselves xx
