Mike in Horseheads Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 This past Friday afternoon, my son Danny lost a long battle with addiction. My heart has a gigantic hole in it that is only getting bigger as the hours go by. Danny was (as some of you that met him) a kind, funny and gregarious boy...he never lost those qualities. He tried to beat his demons over the past 6 years, and was temporarily successful for months at a time...once over a year! He never wanted that life and hated it, he never gave up...My family and I never gave up on him...we loved him so much. Friday I got the call that no parent ever wants to get. He will be coming home for the last time later this week. Not the homecoming We ever wanted. He was a life long rabid Bills fan. Proud to be a Bills fan. Wore his Bills colors in the heart of Dolphin territory...we texted each other all game long, shared the victories and the defeats...planned to come this this years tailgate. Now that's all gone. My plea to you is to have compassion for people in his position, they don't want to be there...they hate it, are ashamed of it...and sometimes just can't escape it. I miss my son and best buddy...I'd gladly change places with him, he was so young so much to live for. Please say a prayer for Danny to finally be at peace.

billsfan_34 Posted February 6, 2017 Posted February 6, 2017 I am so very sorry- I cant understand what your going thru howeve I can emphasize- I am an RN on a cardiac floor at the Buffalo VA Medical Center. The addiction to drugs and alcohol has no boundaries- it has ripped through our veteran population. On a 24 bed unit at any one time 2-3 beds are for withdrawal and heart arrythmia monitoring- It is so very sad. I hope through this very tough time you and your family can find some peace.

jethro_tull Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 You're absolutely right it is the call no parents ever want to hear. I am so sorry for you and your family. We will pray for you and your son to be at peace. Unfortunately I know what you are going through because the same thing happened to my son in 2008. Those addictive substances are absolutely evil in the way they destroy lives. Their is a national of organization called "The Compassionate Friends" that have get togethers where grieving parents can offer each other support. They should have a place local to you. It helped my wife tremendously. I encourage you to join if you are able. Thoughts, prayers and hope for peace to you and your family. https://www.compassionatefriends.org/

hondo in seattle Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 All the Pats bashing, Tyrod debating, and coaching musings seem irrelevant after reading this post. Best wishes, brother. Life is a roller coaster ride, full of ups and downs. I hope your coaster starts heading up again soon.
