is trevor mercer. since i've been on methadone, i've come farther in life. i own my own home, i raise my son. i don't have any issues anymore as far as going backwards. methadone treatment is what helped. >> thank you. >> thank you, mr. mercer. >> narrator: but the loudest voice against the clinic was having second thoughts by the time he testified. >> when the thing hit the front paper, i was upset, and admittedly now, i didn't understand the whole issue. >> narrator: robert parker was dealing with a crisis in his own home. his son was slipping into drug addiction. >> it tore through our family. the first few times, we went running down to the jail, paid whatever the bail was. but it got worse, and he slid down further, and finally, when we wouldn't bail him out anymore, we lost him. he quit communicating with us completely. i was extremely conflicted about the clinic. i had my son, and at that point, i knew that he may be one of the patients that needed it. >> i will call to order the special meeting
