Hello, and thank you for finding Fierceboy’s little corner of the internet.
It’s been a long stretch of silence here—over a year. The truth is, this path has been harder than I ever expected. For anyone who stumbles across this blog in the future, here’s where we are now: our son Hawk turned 18 earlier this year and is now in adult jail. We are facing the difficult realities of the adult criminal justice system alongside ADHD, substance abuse, and the ongoing fight for healing and hope.
I’m a 55-year-old mom, born and raised in Pennsylvania, now living in Florida. Music and pop culture have always been a large part of my life and have quietly helped carry me through tough days. My background in communications shapes how I tell our story here, hoping it can bring light to the challenges families face.
This blog started as a place to share our family’s struggles with ADHD and addiction. Now it’s evolving into a daily journal where I’ll write more frequently about our son’s court cases, the legal system’s impact on families, and the personal exhaustion that comes with it all. I plan to keep us anonymous for privacy, but my hope is to shed light on the challenges many families endure in silence.
Though this blog doesn’t have followers yet, my aim is to reach thousands eventually — parents, caregivers, and anyone touched by addiction, mental health struggles, and the justice system. To show that behind every case number is a family holding onto hope, wearing their pain on their sleeves, and searching for a way forward.
Thank you for stopping by. More updates are coming, and I hope you’ll find something here that speaks to your heart.
With fierce love and steady hope,
Fierceboy’s Mom
