Wow as we speak the police and first responders are getting ready to take my neighbors body because he just overdosed.I'm not 100% sure what he overdosed on.I know he did h and pretty much shot everything under the sun that would give him a buzz.he is at least in his late 50s.feel sort of bad for the guy no one wants to see or hear of someone overdosing.not sure why I posted this just felt like I had to for some reason..

That really sucks. Poor guy. When i read stuff like that i realize it could happen to me..or any one of us

A couple years ago i over did it on dilaudid and passed out. ( ok.that happened a couple times). This one time in particular i woke up naked on the bathroom floor. I got up and the tub was filled with hot water. I dont remember starting or stoppong the water. I only know that had i gotten in the bathtub and passed out i would just be another OD statistic. It can happen so easily.
Im sorry about tha poor guy.

I'm sorry. That is jarring, I know. Tell us more about him, before he fades into the past along with the memory of him

I think it is good that you posted it even though none of us knew him. He had a life, a childhood, troubles, pain. It always seems so strange to think that all the intensity of a living human being, with all of their deep desires and tangled thoughts, bad and good decisions, memories, agonies, delights, feelings, physical sensations can simply be extinguished like a flame, without a sound.

May he know peace.

You posted it because you have a heart. And that is a very good thing.

Well he was my landlords son in law actually x son in law that still lived with him.he was a former marine.he was a very nice guy just
caught up in addition.I know for a fact he was hooked on the needle because he would often tell me he would shoot various things one time mentioned he was shooting ambien? We spoke on a daily basis about life,drugs,woman,etc.we had are disagreements as well.I just had got home last night from getting some herb down the road got inside Sat on my favorite couch and was just getting ready to burn.when I heard doors closing (car doors) so immediately I thought maybe I was followed home by the cops.then I heard someone say to the cops hurry he's turning blue.and I guess they tried to revive him but had no luck.he was also a daily drinker he sure loved his vodka lol he was a good guy and it's even worse because it was a overdose.2nd friend I've lost due to this.cops said they seen a needle next to him and they said it was respiratory failure.I guess all the years of doing drugs caught up with him.poor guy I'll miss email.we weren't super close but we were friends.sorry for the delayed response by the way been a busy day
