Health Makers: Eve Goldberg, 61, Founder, BIGVISION

A family tragedy inspired a commitment to helping young adults regain their lives after addiction recovery.

By Eve Goldberg as told to Abby Ellin

My son Isaac was one of these kids who was adorable and smart and funny, but he never felt comfortable in his own skin.

The first time he smoked weed, he came home and said to me, “I just want to tell you mom I am never doing this again. I hated the way it made me feel. I was in my friend's apartment, I was out on their terrace and I was afraid I was going to jump off. I got so paranoid.”
