[liscamdave]

Hey Guys....how is everyone? I miss you all so much. I haven't been on because a dear friend of mine passed away last night. He overdosed on Oxy-Contin and we have been up the hospital with him as he was on life support, until last night, when his parents decided that it was enough. Anyway, this is the 7th person that I was close to that dies from some sort of drug related problem. Including my husband. This is crazy and when will it end. The first out of the  7 was a 13 year old girl, who got caught up in Oxy's and Zanax, she was found in her room, after she had choked in her sleep from her own vomet....horrible...ugh....when does it end....so sad, so very sad....

I am sorry for being debbie downer....but I had to vent. I hope all are well.....

Love you all...

xo, Lisa

It is such a shame and such a waste of a precious life. We can never express what we really feel when a friend is hurting. To lose someone, even those we barely know, leaves a void in this world. Nothing speaks more loudly than to hear of a death through drugs, and when that death is that of a friend, it is even louder. Sometimes the weight becomes so heavy that it is all we can do to survive. It is unfortunate that it has to take a tragedy like this to wake some of us up as darienguy just pointed out in his sudden self reflection. This being said. Please accept my deepest sympathy and condoleneces for your loss. There are many here as the reponses have shown, that care about what you are feeling at this time. You can count me as one of them. Stay strong.

Sorry about your toothache. I think that is one of the most painful things you can go through. I hope it feels better soon. I am feeling so much better now. My thoughts are with you.

Love ya,
Tim

Good lord, 28!!   My daughter is 27 so my gosh, to me that is soooooo  young.   So sad too.  You know at NA meetings they do a moment of silence for all the addicts who still suffer and also those who didn't make it.

Hi dear.  Wow, that news makes one think, doesn't it?  Scary, scary and just think, we were playing with fire ourselves.  Did you get my message that I know nada about the Master Cleanse?  Sorry I couldn't be of more help.  I wish I could go with you to Key West!  It's a great place to have a vacation!
Love,
Yodes

Lisa omg... I feel like saying I'm sorry isn't nearly enough, but I am.  I wish I had more words.  

Lots of love and prayers are headed your way.

[darienguy]

that is 1 tough story

But i have to thank you- the "fear factor" just kicked up my strength

[tzt2lady]

So sorry to hear about the death of your friend.   This stuff is serious business.   I will keep your friend, his family, and you in my thoughts and prayers.   Its so sad when this happens.  Ive been to way to many funerals of friends who have od'd.

Hang in there,tzt

[lonote]

I'm good. I've decided to quit complaining for a while cause when I look at others problems, mine seem so small. Yes outside of a couple urges to get high, things are going very well. I guess the anti depressants are working.

[liscamdave]

Hey Cathy, thanks so much. It is so sad to see this happen...such a shame...but, what can you do. How have you been? Are things ok?? I haven't been on in a while, so I am catchin up. Hope all is well...

xoxo, Lisa

[liscamdave]

Thanks honey...It is so sad, and yes, such a waste. He was a good guy, but an addict for as long as Ive known him, not that it made him a bad person. But there was really no helping him.

How have you been feeling TIm? I hope better. I am feeling a little tired today, and have a bad toothache. SO, that sucks, but other then that, I am good. Hope you are well...Miss you...

xoxo, Lisa

[lonote]

Hon, I am so sorry to hear of the death of your dear friend. How sad. My heart goes out to you and his family and everyone who cared for him. Thats the kind of thing that can happen, and when it does so many people are affected by it. Again hon, i'm so sorry. It  was a horrible evening for you. As bad as it gets.   (((((((((((cathy-lisa))))))))))))))

[TimH2]

I am so sorry to hear about your friend. I am so glad that you are clean. What a waste of a young life. My prayers are with you and his family.

Love to ya,
