Oh I am so very sorry about the loss of your daughters. I have another son who is using drugs and I know the call could come any time. It is devastating. Fortunately, I have had really good support from my family, friends and local community. And I'm also in a support group similar to what you are in. I think overall my province has a slightly different approach than Alberta. But it's such a big problem and I don't see a solution any more than the powers that be. But I just wish that the public who is so angry would see that this can happen to anyone. Since my son died so many people have told me about a family member or friends son in the same situation. It is so widespread.
