A Father's Love: Bridging the Gap in Addiction

I needed to go to bed last night knowing that my son heard from my lips to him: I love you. And I just wanted to say for myself: I didn't want to go Another Day without talking to my son, and it was brief, it was not long, but it was heartfelt and it was real on both sides, and it's not going to change anything in the short term.
Picture this: you're a parent watching your child struggle with addiction, feeling helpless and unsure of what to do. In this heartfelt episode of 'Opioid Dad', Hank opens up about his own journey of reaching out to his son amidst the chaos of addiction. With a mix of raw honesty and gentle humor, Hank shares how he navigated the murky waters of guilt, shame, and stigma that often accompany addiction.
He emphasizes the power of communication and the transformative impact of simply saying 'I love you'. This episode is a poignant reminder that it's never too late to extend a helping hand and that familial support can be a beacon of hope in the darkest times. Whether you're a parent, sibling, or friend of someone battling addiction, Hank's story offers valuable insights and a comforting sense of solidarity.
