Did anyone know Chronic Mistake?

I am chronics husband and am just trying to figure out where things went wrong.  I was by her side through her detox and she was deeply invested in an early recovery program..  She mentioned this web site a few times and stopped  becasue of a few harsh  It words.

I lost my wife "chonic mistake" a couple of weeks ago and and just wanted you all to know that drugs do take peoples lives everyday.  Chronic was clean but the doctors think she had some underlying heart issues that were related to possible drug use.  

Thank you for being there for her when she was apart of this community. it gave her a chance to see other have similar problems and that othes have made it to the sober side. This forum kept her busy  when she was in WD.  

Good Luck to everyone!!!

I am so so so sorry,I have been clean for a week.I did not know your wife,but our struggles are all to similar.I have been clean a week,and I was reading this and my heart just sunk,Addiction is a horrible thing but our loved ones are the ones giving us the strength to right our wrongs,I know you are probably asking yourself ...what did i do wrong,what could i have done,....from what i can see you did the one thing us addict need to make it thru,you were there and supportive,and yes fristrations come with it,but you didnt give up,and you did NOTHING wrong or didnt need to do anything different,My husband is here for me,he has seen me thru it all,and his way is by givnig me a hard time ...ALL the time,but if for some reason something did happen to me i would know he was there till the end and i would love him on the otherside ,as i did here,you are a blessing and my prayers are with you and if you need ANYTHING leave me a mess.......Danielle

Yes - I "knew" chronic mistake. She was one of the main people I read the posts from four months ago when I was first getting clean.  And I am very sad about learning this.  I am so sorry for your loss.  I mean, the name just jumped out at me today when I was scrolling down. Your post. I am very sorry. She really helped me though. I hope peace is with you, my prayers are with you and her. This last post of yours, the girl who told her "jump" I swear I remember those posts. I was reading along with everyone. Please take care.

Thanks for your post.  I cannot seem to stop reading all these posts.  I should have gone to Alonon to have a better understanding of addiciton but I thought I would have time for that because my wife was only 2 and 1/2 months clean.  To answer your questions, no we do not have childeren, thank god!  And yes, I am talking to a professional grief counselor.  

I could not stop thinking about my wife saying, "some girl on the post tells me to just "jump" and stop taking opiates."  So who ever that girl was, thanks for giving her hope and strength to do the right thing.   @>>>>>
