Tell us what they were like before they developed a substance use disorder*
Dennis was hilarious, outgoing, caring, athletic, and up for anything. He was the best person to be around. His smile was contagious, and his personality was just the best.
Tell us about their struggles with substance use disorder
It started with being diagnosed with epilepsy, and horrible migraines...then he just started to self medicate. He never felt like he fit in, he felt “different” and it was so hard for him because things he would start, or things he wanted to do he couldn’t finish or was told he “couldn’t because of his seizure disorder” such as schooling for certain programs, sports, even driving....he had to be “seizure free for so long” etc. it was so hard for him, and his substance abuse just took over...
What made them smile?
His family, his friends, his dog!!! ( man he loved her, and she was such a great support for him) the Chicago Bears...( 😂) he was an avid fan!!! Biggest fan I know! And just sports in general. He could talk your ear off about hem!
What do you miss the most about them today?
His smile, his laugh, his voice...just being able to hang out with him and feel his positive energy. He was such a great person to be around.
If you had a chance to say one more thing to today what would it be?
I love you, and I’m hear for you whenever you need me. No judgment, just love and support. I’m ALWAYS here.
