tantrum asked:
this started in 1998. he split up with a girlfriend, and started drinking and taking drugs, i spent everyday driving to his home cleaning up and begging him to stop. The years passed by with no let up i would ring support teams week after week, do his shopping buy his clothes toiletries everything ..Then our mother died in 2001 and i still carried on looking after him and trying to come too terms with the loss of our mother, the whole family became scarce another 2 sisters and one brother..well then he was heavily into heroin drink and prescribed drugs and bought drugs.. You can imagine i would drive him everywhere at times i was so ill with a chronic back complaint it was hard, but time went by and it got to July 2005 and we were at the drug clinic he had made his mind up to give up the drugs, and there seemed as if there was some ray of hope. Then on the 7th of september whilst waiting for a clinic or what ever they were arranging,i was at the local supermarket and he walked up to me and said Lisa Daniel has been killed his 19yr old son had been killed along with 5 other teenagers in a horrific head on car crash. So i looked after him .he went from worse to even worse which i expected but the rest of the siblings would not help me and did not visit him.He started to take heroin crack drink methadone prescribed drugs bought drugs, needing my money which i hadn’t got every week so my health got worse and i lost all my friends my boyfriend and family..This year only 3 or 4 months ago i was at his home mopping up human waste wee and trying to lift and change him after i got him into hospital 7 times.. he came off everything except prescribed drugs until last week now he is drinking again but at least 6 to 8 bottles of white cider and now buying drugs again .. Id booked a holiday for him for the 13th november to go to lanzarote with me and my boyfriend yes we did get back together, but no longer as the holday is off because my brother cannot walk let alone talk.. I just lye in bed and worry so much.. i have no life and was such a happy person please help him I have been to bereavement doctors crisis teams samaritans aa he will not attend any..
