This story is about my brothers who used meth for quit some time my oldest brother Rob used for 12 years, my younger brother Rick I believe no more than 4 years.
They lived in a small town Deming, New Mexico
my brother and his wife ended up getting addicted to meth it tore there family apart, they have three sons, my ex sister in law used meth during her last pregnancy with my nephew and he was born without any known birth defects but at the age of 6 or 7 he was diagnosed with leukemia, Rob didn't even know his son had leukemia since she had taken the boys and moved away he has not seen his children in 4 years, He ended up getting addicted to the needle and one day in December 2004 he injected himself with the flesh eating bacteria known as Necrotizing Fasciitis after only 5 days in the hospital they had to amputate his right arm and then the doctors werent even sure he was going to live. We watched Rob lay in the hospital for 9 days not knowing rather he was going to live or die, do you think that stopped Rick from using, NO, Not until he got busted selling meth and went to jail for 6 months and ended up with 5 years probation and will face a minium of 15 years in prison if he messes up. It also split him and his wife up. Now his son is still living with his ex wife who still is smoking meth around my nephew so he is inhaling all those chemicals as well, my mom has went to all authorities in New Mexico and nobody will take him out of that home, the mom also went to jail and was busted for meth they also had child abuse charges because of the meth parphanalia in reach of the 4 year old, but when she got out of jail she went a picked my nephew up from her mothers house and he lives with here still. I just don't understand how the law can leave a little child in a house with a meth addict. If any one knows who you can go to out side of the state that this is all going on in please let me know, because none of the authorities will listen in New Mexico, its like they don't care.
