Sorry to hear about your friend sounds like you did the right thing. Early in sobriety I had a friend who died of an over dose. We were going through the steps at the same time different sponsors so we hung out a lot. After my fifth step I seemed to pass him and we went back and forth about who was right and who was wrong but eventually he saw why I passed him and he caught up. I lost him on 6th and 7th.

I try and remember the funny, good stuff you know. I remember being mad at him for getting the girl I wanted in AA, we had some fun.

We kind of went our separate ways and one day I was driving to work and I saw him thumbing. I stopped to see how he was, he was in rough shape. I dropped him and his friend off downtown. As he got out of the car he looked me right in the eye and said pray for me.

That was the last time I saw him alive. I’m really, really sorry to hear about your friend.

All Good Things,
