I'm starting this blog as a new journey in my life. I also hope it helps others who may be going through the same things I am as a parent of a child addicted to heroin.
My daughter was a model at the age of 3, she did very well. It all became to demanding for me so we agreed to stop as some days would be just so long. As the years passed her father and I got divorced and she came to live with me.
She was a smart little girl and even though she had her days I would not change a day of it.
As time went by she asked if she could go live with her Father as he was all alone and he had no one to care for him, mind you she is only 6 years old at the time. I told her if that was what she wanted then I was going to join the Military because it was something I always wanted but I did everything backwards in my life anyway and she was up for it.
Well, as I'm in the Army things go pretty well for an old timer like me (33 years old at the time) with all these teen age girls with so much energy and full of life of course I wonder if I did the right thing or not. She come to visit me in South Carolina a couple of times and Korea for a week. Let me tell you, she was 13 when she came to see me in Korea and she looked all grown up. We stayed at a hotel and I lost track of her as she met another girl around her age and they were all over that place. I finally find her, with a cigarette in her hand playing black jack and a waitress comes by a gives her a beer and she yells out Holly, over here. I was so angry but had to keep my cool being in the Military and all.
I finally get out of the Military and she comes to stay with me and what a hell yin she was and still is. She had to finish her schooling through the mail because she was always into some kind of trouble but she did finish and got her diploma. She went to college for all sorts of things but nursing was her baby until she got into trouble and got a felony. Well, all that nursing school money right down the drain so she just kept going to college until she found something she liked and then she did which will bring me to another day and time.
