brought it to school the bathroom sessions became more regular to the point where he was snorting the drug nearly every day he just can't stop nick said he just kind of become dead inside the next five years were filled with disappointments including getting kicked out of five area schools stealing and selling mass to support his habit and running from police on a weekly basis there was always a warrant out for his arrest because he never showed up for court when he was supposed to be in and out of juvenile hall for four years he tried several times to kick the addiction it's like you can

words that if he messed up again he would most likely die in  prison over remembers his restoration and dealing with the young drug users with kids in general the tragedy is often magnified because those of us who have seen this in the past just know the road that young people are headed down because of their potential we don't want them to go down that road as a judge it's not as easy as you think to become detached when it was never used as never used drugs since the last arrest in two thousand and four he said he spent eighteen months in prison with credit for time served in county jail good time and work time he finished serving his parole in july of this year in prison access to drugs was limited and he was immersed in rehabilitation that's what changed him it took a whole year for my head not to be clouded that's when i realized i don't want to be this judged over was an answer to a prayer after the fog lifted from his brain  learn how to live like a normal person and give up his old behaviors when you've got a big bag of drugs everybody wants to be your friend he give you what you think what you want girls act like they like you and people will do whatever they learn to forgive the people he resented a lot of his drug use was aimed at hurting other people didn't hurt anybody but me and it has reestablished a close relationship with his family and he works with his father and brother painting houses this is the first time i've had a real job he said raising his eyebrows this is the first time i've had a license his mother who is clean and sober herself is it waited to have her son back as daily a man's all the people he vic behavior while he was using he now goes out of his way to serve others by opening doors for little old ladies and trying to make people smile with more than two years clean he also mentors other young men who are working the twelve steps he grooms who grins when he talks about his girlfriend who is also clean and sober he still dreams of being a rock star just without the rock star lifestyle before he lit up a cigarette when nick looked down and rubbed way for a while i see him around town and over said it warms my heart
