On about April 19th 2002 SOMEONE hacked into the old guestbooks and DELETED them. What they deleted was over 500 DEATH and ADDICTION stories relating directly to OXYCONTIN. They also deleted over 100 stories from people who are legitimate patients and most of them need oxycontin for their SEVERE PAIN. I apologize to anyone who took the time to share their stories to HELP warn others. Those guestbooks were somehow a comfort to all who have been affected by this ABUSE epidemic. Please if you are looking for your story then REPOST it. I'm sad to say but by the amount of email I am receiving these guestbook's will rapidly rebuild their SAD tales BUT people need to be warned as to the power of this drug and the deadly consequences when ABUSED.
Please read the other stories and add yours to our guestbook...

Hi;i signed the previous guest book but since there is a new one I will tell my story.On Sept.08,2001,I lost my beautiful son at the age of 19 due to an Oxy Contin drug overdose.There are no words to describe this.He was my world.He was the kindest,sweetest,affectionate child,and was so so protective of his sister,she was the most important thing in his life.I cant even begin to tell you what he meant to us.A lot of people think this drug has to be mixed to cause death,not true.My child's toxicology report showed no other drug but Oxy Contin.I think the most important thing I can express here is ACCOUNTABILITY.My son was there for so many of his friends but where were they when he needed them.He was with four girls that night,and one was aware of what he was on but yet she states she wasn't going to play his mother.Thus taking away my right forever to be his mom.She just dumped him like it was nothing,this hurts me to no end.I also think that anyone who knows a child has a drug problem has to be accountable for them,since they cant be accountable for themselselves.Kids or parents even if you have to call their parents annon.please let them know.So many children will be saved that way.Here is a poem I wrote for my child: My Son Elliot Jr. But 19 short years on this earth God took you from us too soon The pain we bear we can never erase God how we long to see your face If tears could bring you back you would soon re appear God in heaven,I need you near You are our joy the love of our life The pain it cuts deep like a knife Elly I love you more than words can say It's with you I hope to be with some day Elly it was too much to battle your addiction Now your at peace with no more affliction Elly I told you all of your life I will fight for you,when you can't fight for yourself So on I go trying to hold my head high Fighting the fight that took your life.

My son Shane died on May 09, 2002,from an accidental overdose of OxyContin, he would have celebrated his 21st Birthday on May 16th. Shane had struggled with abuse of pain killers over the past two years. He was attending a rehab program and taking classes, he was happier and more positive than anyone had seen him in some time. The story is that he had not used in a few weeks, he was sought out by a man who was not his peer. This man is older than I am, he had got his prescription filled and called around looking for Shane. I know Shane took the drug willingly but really how much will did he have? I buried my son two days before his 21st Birthday, never as a parent do we think that we will bury our child...it's not a natural process. My heart is irrepairably broken, the loss is unimaginable. I was blessed by Shane he taught me strength, compassion, and understanding. I am proud to have been his Mother, there is no shame, no embarasssment. No matter what his choices I loved him anyway. The abuse of this drug has taken away my son,who was a brother, an uncle, a grandson, a nephew, and a wonderful friend to many. We miss him so much... Shane's Mom

A beautiful young 18 year old girl, whom my son once dated..died from oxy overdose. I was so shocked by her death. She was an honor student and had a scholorship to college..but only a few months away from graduation her family was planning a funeral instead of a party. I still look at her picture sitting on my table..and wonder WHY WHY WHY...The tragedy does not end here...2 days after her death ..her present boyfriend shot himself..because he blamed himself for her death. Rumor has it he supplied her with the deadly drug. PLEASE>>>>>>>DO NOT USE THIS DRUG>>>NO HIGH IS WORTH YOUR LIFE and the pain an suffering your family and friends will go through. SARA...I miss you so much...your smiled..lit up the whole room when you walked in..what a shame that such a beautiful young lady so full of life and so much going for her had to be taken away at such a young age....YOU WILL BE IN MY HEART FOREVER ....and like the song the played at your funeral>>EVERY BREATH I TAKE I'LL BE MISSING YOU....
