Nancy, this is Debbie.  Write me at P.O. Box 491, Dresden, TN 38225 and let me know if you have an email address.  I am very pleased to hear you are clean.

I wish all that knew he the best and my prayers are with you. Kris wrote me twice and said that he had spoken to his mom. He said that Deb was who told him what all these comments said. Well, if you are talking to him Mrs. Debbie...tell him I said hello and that I pray for him, often. I hipe that he gets the help that he needs. He will need his family if he does. I just hope everything works out for the best for everyone.

People on dope don’t have any friends...they have using buddies.  A person on dope has an acceptance level much lower than prior to getting strung out...in other words, what they “accept” as okay completely changes.  For instance hygeine.  Before on drugs, they might never go a day without a shower, but get strung out, and they might go a week withouth one.  Same with their morals.  What they would never do prior to dope, suddenly no longer seems so wrong to them once they are strung out.  A girl once said to me, “I’ve done a lot of bad things to get dope—shoplifted, pawned my jewelry, missed worked, had my kids around the wrong people, but I never turned a trick for dope...” (prostituted).  I told her “You haven’t YET.” Keep doing it long enough and you will...mark my work.  YET = You’re Eligible Too.  Dope has no prejudices and no one is “above” getting hooked, regardless of who you are, what you do for a living, etc.  I’ve known doctors/surgeons and attorneys who were addicts.

Sorry for the typo in my previous post:  I knew when I could tell he was selling dope it was to offset some of the cost of feeding his addiction.  Thanks again for sharing some of the details.  I don’t need to know who it was from...I just wanted a clearer picture of what he did, how it happened, etc., and what you shared gave me that.  I’ll be shedding tears for many years over this, as I have many other times...but I am only one of many who have been hurt by things he has done.  He has a 14, 8 and a 5 y/o and they don’t even know him (deadbeat dad)—probably best for them, to be honest.  The thing is, the 14 y/o took it upon herself to try to track him down recently in hopes of getting to know him and develop some type of relationship with him, and I can tell when I talk to her that she is not only angry but that her heart is broken over this/him—and how do we help her to understand the logic of his behaviors/actions when there is no logic to them??  Addiction SUCKS.
