The life and death of my brother, the junky

Article Abstract:

Drug addicts often have many secrets, even from their family and close friends. Some hide their secret for many years, and some details of their lifestyle may only come to light if they eventually die from drug abuse. Family members and close friends can become bound up in the addict's cycle of coming on and off drugs, and they can reach the stage where very little shocks them any more. They find that it is extremely difficult to have a meaningful relationship with someone whose only concern is obtaining drugs.

Inquiries have already been received from potential franchisees, and the company is now looking for a suitable site for its first outlet.
