The Beginning

Dan had just come back from a missions trip to Honduras with his Dad.  He had had a great time and things seemed to be going in a great direction.  I will never forget the night that Dan talked to me and told me that he had a problem and he needed help.  When he told me that he was addicted to heroin I found myself in shock.  I kept my cool and talked to him and asked important questions like how long and how much does it cost and how do you do it?  I thought that heroin could only be injected.  I had no idea that heroin could even been snorted.  My learning curve went from 0  to a billion in a brief time.  I remember that I asked Dan if he would be willing to be tested and evaluated and he said he would.  He seemed broken and repented.  I had no idea what the next couple of weeks would be like.
