In this episode of "Grieving Out Loud," Angela Kennecke interviews mother Sara Crosby. Sara has three children; two of them are twin boys. One of her twins developed substance use disorder, which started in his teen years, but intensified after he went away to college. Sara is a trained social worker, but nothing could have prepared her for the treacherous journey of her son's addiction. Sara has gained deep insight into dealing with a child who is abusing substances and shares what she's learned in this episode, both in how to help her child and herself.
