I learned a great deal about the disease of addiction, and particularly what crystal meth can do to a body, which isn't pretty. I also learned about how love, faith and persistence to not give up can save a life.

My review of Tweak by Nic Sheff was published awhile ago (My Methy, Methy Life), Beautiful Boy by his father, David Sheff is in today's Globe:
