Marco Broccardo was an ordinary boy from an ordinary family. He had parents who loved him and older sisters who doted on their little brother. He had friends and he played sport at school.
Schoolboy experimentation with weed quickly turned to coke and ecstasy. Drugs made him feel great. What was the harm?
The trouble came when supply and demand were out of balance and a harmless joint and a couple of pills no longer did the trick. Marco needed cash – more and more of it. He became a runner for the dealers who operated in the clubs where Joburg teenagers went to party. He had money and he had drugs. Life seemed good.
Then he discovered crack cocaine.
From that moment the ruthless pursuit of his next hit took his family to the brink of financial ruin and emotional despair. Marco lied his way through rehabs and halfway houses; he used every genuine offer of help as opportunities to plan his next spectacular relapse; and he dismissed several close calls with death as signs that he just needed to be more careful next time. He didn’t care.
Until the day he made the dramatic and life-altering decision to change. How he did it and what he has done with his life since then are nothing short of miraculous.
Rocks – One Man’s Climb From Drugs to Dreams is Marco’s story.

Rocks One Man Climb From Drugs to Dreams eBook Marco Broccardo Reviews
A griping story, couldn't put the book down
I loved the raw truth reliving the worst of the worst. An engaging read that educates as much as it draws you in. Thank you Marco for your honesty.
A remarkable personal story which guides you through the forbidden territories of addiction and the never avoided consequences. Fortunately this one happily ends with a personal triumph.
The story is fluently read and it would be difficult to let it out your hand ...
I found this to be a thoroughly compelling read. Marco Broccardo's story is horrific and sad in some places, ironically funny in others, but overwhelmingly courageous and hopeful overall.
Addiction is affecting an alarmingly growing number of people, whether as addicts or as the family and friends of the addict, and Marco and his family's sharing of the intimate details of their stories is very brave. These stories are raw and shocking in their telling, and go a long way to explaining the passion that the author and his wife put into their fund-raising efforts towards rehabilitation of addicts.
Whether you read this book as an addict, family or friend of an addict, or to educate yourself as a parent or teacher, read this book.
Living in Johannesburg at the same time as Marco and reading his story has made me realise how fortunate I was not to have gone down the same road. I applaud Marco for his bravery in having written this book and for being such an inspiration to everyone.
The proceeds of the book go to wards a good and just cause, and encourage everyone to pick up a copy. If not for the benefit of the less fortunate in the vice of addiction then to just read an amazing story of a man who was able to go through hell and back and finally become a recovered addict who is now one of the brightest entrepreneurs in South Africa and a role model for us all.
The book shows what a deep rooted problem addiction is in society and that we must take it seriously to combat it.
Amazing life!
Started reading this and couldn't put it down. Well written and an honest & sad account of how an addicts brain thinks. Highly recommend a must read!
