While I was writing my last post Sarah McLachlan's Angel was playing in the background. It's a lovely song. It beautifully conveys the warm, suffocating embrace of a vicious addiction.
Years ago one of my friends had a heroin habit. It used her up. She grew emaciated and scarred, and in the end she slipped into a coma. She stayed on earth for one more year and then she went away.
