My uncle, whom I love dearly, started smoking crack about 20 years ago. Before then, I idolized him. He was like a father - my protector.
As life would have it, he's had his ups & downs - mostly downs since becoming addicted.
My uncle is only 53 years old but he looks like the damn Crypt Keeper. One eye, bald & extremely thinning hair, double amputee (wheelchair bound), hands look like eagle claws, full top plate & partial bottom, etc., etc.
This man is not stupid, just does stupid shit.
When I bought my house I let him move in with me (before he lost his legs). Now most people would not let a known crackhead live in their house, but my uncle is not the ordinary. Even before he lost his legs, he could barely walk so I never had to worry about my shit walking out of the door.
