Now that the semester has officially begun, we students don’t have as much time for hobbies as we did over the summer — but that doesn’t mean we have to abandon those hobbies entirely. I love to read in my spare time, and I had much more free time to read over the past four months. I didn’t finish every single book I started, but of the seven that I did complete, there were four that stuck out to me.

When my son Nic was born, I was like other parents who hope that their children will be healthy and happy. But when Nic became addicted to heroin and methamphetamine as a teenager, my dreams shifted. I wanted him to get clean and stay clean. As his drug problem escalated - he used potentially lethal drugs in dangerous combinations for a decade - my hope for him became very simple: just to survive. He did, and my gratitude for his life is at the heart of our relationship now. He is here.

Yes, loads of fantastic new books keep coming out every week, but sometimes it’s nice to look back in time and consider a slightly older gem you may have missed.

Fifteen years ago, I was the father of a child who was living on the street, addicted to meth, opioids and other drugs. My son was slowly dying. When he was missing, I scoured neighborhoods where I knew he hung out. Mostly I searched in vain, but I found him a few times and tried to persuade him to enter a treatment program. He was unwilling to get help. He became angry and belligerent. He accused me of trying to control him.
