Can you get hash where you live? It's not plain old cannabis is it?

sorry about the spelling my youngest son keeps coming in and asking questions and hence the type errors. sorry all. Another thing would he be open to an honset talk or have you tried that. I so hope you manage to cet this sorted a least a bit. the drug thing is as bad as people say. It is so hard to stop everyone thinks they are different and won't get addicted. I think the right help- someone that he can relate to maybe an x attict who knows a lot more than him and has done time even. I wonder if a local drug centre could put you in touch with someone who may want to help those in trouble.

I am from new zealand and wondered if your son had done other drugs before this. what does he say the stuff is that you found? does he think he has things under control? how old is he again? whwen you smoke herion it leaves a black streak on tin foil, bottle tops can br used to mix drugs for injection, are there any marks on his arms?does he weat long sleeved tops? in terms of using meth or herion what are his pupils doing, this is a very good indication of what drug a person is abusing. How is his personal habbits and does he seem moody, different druds have different withdrawl symptoms.

Ok I am back. I am trying to find something on the coins but am not coming up with anything. You said that there was a green and black substance on them? Well I know that when a penny gets wet the copper turns green, do you think that maybe something got spilt on the coins and it could just be gunk? Like for instance sometimes change gets dumped in the console of my car and then pop or something gets spilt on it and it turns the pennies green and the other coins have a black gunk type of stuff on it. I will keep looking for a relationship between the drugs and coins though.
