No matter how hard you try, you never can help everyone. We took someone in. But we couldn't change him for the better. Drugs are evil and can take over a person, you can see the difference. And it's really terrible. To watch someone go to rock bottom after trying to help them move on and be successful. He was normal and fun when he first came here in to our home, but then over the weeks he changed, he'd fall asleep all the time while eating, holding a cigarette, taking a drink. Nothing I've ever seen before. All he did was complain and mope around. He wasn't the same person we thought he was. Though we wanted to help him, we can't change everyone and put others at risk. We already have enough nuts in this house, we can't have another druggie. We just can't. So we had to say goodbye. Hopefully he realizes what he had and works hard to stay clean and keep his job. Thats all for now.
*EDIT* 2012
We have found out that Will had died of an overdose... Apparently months ago in some motel. My brother hadn't talked to him in a year(ish) because he needed to put himself first and not get caught up in that. It's sad, but in the end people will do what they want to do even if it's bad for them. I will though remember the good times we all had with him and try not to think of the bad. Drugs are a terrible thing to be addicted to, a very scary thing.
