Reality...drugs kill

Yesterday a 24 year old kid is threatening to kill his girlfriend, their baby and then himself. The police get her from her job, the baby from daycare and have them in protective custody. The cop is on the phone with the 24 year old yound man...a shot is heard, he is dead.
The police find the body....drugs.

Just another reality smack upside the head for me....drugs kill. And look what this young man left behind, because of using.

It is a good reminder that we should remember the addict who is still suffering in our prayers everyday and keep showing eachother the love that we all ,as miracles, deserve.

Hi I'm Bre. n its just too much to explain..well here goes a long entry! lol.. uhh im 15 n most of u are thinkin "stupid little kid" lol i think the same thing but ive been through too much, my moms dying in a krack house and i dont know what to do, Shes tried commiting suicide like.. 5 times and if it wasnt for me n my little bro finding her she'd be dead. so yesterday me n Brandon(my little bro) go over there to her house to stay with her because she went to vegas with some friends and didn't want to come back ever. n she said she only came back for one reason n that was us, so we went over there to stay the night with her and she told us her whole life story right after she did a phat shot n had us crying, n she was crying saying she was so confused n nothing makes sense n shes lost, n she said she "If I die, I want you and Brandon to be happy knowing that I'm in a happier place because I'm so missrable here." oh n added a little craziness like, "When I die i want yall to throw my ashes over the boat ramp"?!?! i mean wtf are we suppose to think about **** like this i dunno what to do n i got into meth a couple months ago n had a bad experience, im the type of girl that if u first met me ude think i was a stuck up bitch, and im not and i can say im not with so much confidence becuase ive been there for every ******* friend i had and they still screwed me over..im just confused, if any of u took the time to read this, thanx, it kinda helps to vent sumwhere, where people dont judge you, they just help..

I've lost 6 or 7 friends to this disease in the last year alone!! Brebre, I really feel for you and understand your delima, maybe check the naranon board to get some support for your self or the alateen program. Check out na.org for a meeting for your mom, or for yourself!! You don't have to end up like one of my dead friends, and neither does your mom. There is hope bre. Your family will be in my prayers. Mike
