What was said
"And when I came back downstairs, my son had gotten worse. Like he was like lethargic. Like we couldn't even get his attention. We had to bring him to the hospital and that was the last time I smoked right there."
Strings says he stopped using cannabis in December after an incident where his young son became seriously unwell while he was upstairs getting high. He also describes a separate moment of realising he felt unable to do a short errand without his vape pen, which made him feel “weak”.
