Many addicts die, but my addict was given another chance....

My husband died 5 years ago. I found him lifeless, blue, swallowing his tongue, and not breathing. I'm only 110 lbs and he was 280 lbs. I pulled him out of bed and performed CPR while on the phone with 911. When the police came, one who knew him, punched him the chest out of frustration and screamed "COME ON" It kicked started his heart and he jumped up. He spent the next week in ICU. They asked me "do you smoke crack?" WTF! No, I don't smoke crack. "Do you take pills or other drugs?" I waited till they left and I read my husbands chart. It can't be! Cocaine, opiates from Percocet and oxycodone, and his gas levels were so high. God gave him his life back. God gave him a chance to be with me and be a father. I didn't know that he would be this man. He died. He promised to never ever ever touch another drug. I am an enabler. I admit it.
