My wife, Barbara (Btosh), has been successful in starting a f/f grief support meeting in Bucks County, PA, "specifically" for those who lost a loved one to addiction. It is not connected in any way with Nar-Anon, but that should not deter anyone in need from attending. The first meeting will be on June 16th with meetings scheduled for the 1st & 3rd Thursdays of every month afterward. Please contact me or my wife by private message if more detailed information is required. We are here to help.
Bucks County, in 2008, experienced approximately five deaths per month from drug overdose, and that doesn't count other related deaths due to addiction. Statistics are hard to come by, but I'm sure it is on the rise. I sincerely hope those who experience such a loss will give this meeting a chance. It is not necessary, or healthy, to deal with this alone.
