Dear Silver --

I am sorry that you have to go through this, just when you should be celebrating your graduation.

Sabby said everything I would have written. I would add one thing -- we do not know what frame of mind he is in when he write messages that he loves you and then later doesn't call or comes home and ignores you.

You asked: What should I say to him, I can't keep my mouth shut much longer about any of this, I know I need to say
something to him because noone else will.

I was a drinker and drug user when I was younger. I did not listen to people who try tried to make me see what I was doing to myself. And even after I saw it, it was very very hard to get off the treadmill of addiction and out of a certain lifestyle.

You can try to speak your mind. You will at least know that you tried. You must be prepared that he is not going to listen, just as his mother has resigned herself to his current path.

I wish that much good comes into your life, Sparrow.
