My sister just overdosed

I am posting this about 5 minutes after the ambulance has left with my sister.once again she has overdosed and will live thru it.I went downstairs and heard her gasping I tried to wake her and she was unresponsive,her skin was cold and her lips were turning blue.Not only did I lose a friend today,my sister almost died too.This is about the fifth time the medics have been here for her in as many months.The craziest part of it was when they revived her she immediatly started lyin!!!All this in the name of pain managment!!What a crock!I am really sick and tired of this nonsense....thank god it wasnt me ridin in the back of that bus tonite.But for the grace of god..thanks for listenin-Trish.

AhTrish, what a horrible day you've had! I hope your sister will see this as a wake up call. You make sure you take care of you however! With this much pressure and stress you come and find support from the people who care about you. Many prayers coming your way!
