A Father's Heartfelt Letter: Part 1 - The Family's Journey Through Addiction

Your cost has been a loss of empathy for others, because the sober young man I know would not want his sisters or his mother crying and praying for a safe return.
Imagine pouring your heart out to a loved one in the throes of addiction. In this episode, Hank, the voice behind 'Opioid Dad', reads a deeply personal letter he wrote to his son during his recovery program. This isn't just any letter; it's a raw and emotional account that captures the profound impact addiction has on families.
Hank's words are filled with honesty and love, offering a glimpse into the pain, hope, and resilience that come with supporting someone through recovery. He shares stories from his own family's history with addiction, including the heartbreaking loss of his best friend and grandfather. Despite the sorrow, Hank's message is one of hope, urging his son to embrace sobriety and cherish relationships. This episode is part one of a two-part series, and it's a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction.
Hank's candid storytelling and genuine emotion make this episode a powerful reminder that even in the darkest times, there is always hope for healing and recovery.
