God bless all of the people who are, were addicts and some of the people who didn’t make it. My brother died of an overdose. Every single person has a chance at redemption. I hope she takes this time to find Jesus. Seriously find Jesus. Some people will get this and some people won’t. I will pray for this world to become drug free. It gets a hold of your life and doesn’t let go. I look at her picture and see a person. She has a chance to redeem herself. I hope she does!
