One of my bf from high school just called me. Her brother in law, who is only 30, was found dead a few days ago. He had been struggling with a meth addiction, and was attending NA to try to reconcile his family. He had a great business, a beautiful wife, 2 sons, and a nice house. He was found dead with morphine and methadone tablets next to him. Apparently, he was carpeting a pharmacy. He had his own carpet business. They don't have the autopsy report yet, but it is such a tragedy. Her sister is totally torn.
He was trying to get better. What a sad disease this is. Death is the ultimate consequence. Especially for the 4 and 6 year old beautiful boys left behind who idolized their dad.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it really makes you think about who we might be affecting due to our use.
She wants me to talk to her sister to explain the insanity of this disease. They know my struggles, but they still love me because they know the kind of person I am. I feel soooooo horrible for them. What a shock. Her sister, the widow just sees life as too hard to go on now. Everyone is worried about her. She wasn't a user, but has always been a little unstable. Now this kind of stress they feel is something they can't handle.
This disease sucks.

You know thats one of my biggest fears that if I lose control my beautiful daughter would probaly be the one to find me.My bro in law was OFF the tramadol he was doing good we all thought(my bro-in-law has been a hardcor addict since he was 14 he is now50.It is hard for me to even try to understand his reasons for relapsing.My sister has no idea nor does she care.Her feeling is he should be able to think of his family first.I have tried ALOT of time to sit and talk with her about how addiction works but no aveil.Now I am so scared that she is gonna come home and find him or worse yet my sisters 7 yr old By you posting that it will make me think long and hard on just what it is I'm trying to do.I DO NOT want to DIE I deserve a NORMAL life without being on a roller coster.Thank You for the motivater....Mollyjean

I only met him once in January. I his struggles through my friend. It is just a bad disease. He built this little business, and he and his brother were making easy six figures. Their house was amazing, and they were young. The left behind wife wants nothing to do with life now.
How sad,
