Fortunately, the story doesn't end there. As a man, he scaled the heights of worldly success in his career, but all he had for a foundation was a crumbling sense of self-worth. When troubles came, his early education in addiction led to his own path in alcoholism, prescription drug abuse, and full-blown heroin addiction. Self-destruction was the inevitable outcome of a life lived for himself, but after recognizing a few miraculous instances for what they were-opportunities to change-Rocky found a new way. Repentance and recovery has led to a redeemed life. Rocky was certainly lost to his addictions, but his story proves that what is lost can be found.
