Parent’s Reflection
My Son

The doctor said a baby boy
Your dad and I cried tears of joy
I held you close unto my breast
My precious baby
That God had sent
I cried when you got your first tooth
I kissed the pain away
The joy my son of your first steps
That I can’t explain
Then the teenage years arrived
Girls booze drugs and highs
Son my heart broke for you
Now an addict I still love you
You arrived at Aislinn
They welcomed you with love
They took so much care of you
Just like Jesus up above
The support you got with your addiction
Advising you against conviction
Counselling, therapy, helping you through six-weeks at Aislinn
Did a lot for you
Thank you Aislinn for being there
Aislinn will always be in my prayers
We’re doing well in Aftercare
One day at a time we take from here
My unconditional love forever
Mammy
