As it's been said, welcome to PC and I'm terribly sorry for your loss but as you said, if one person learns something from it, it's not in vain.

Meth has almost taken my life several times and the power of it's addiction is so strong that I still struggle on a daily basis not to use it again. I can't express enough how dangerous meth is and how quickly it gets ahold of you and destroys your life. Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope it helps at least one person. It opened my eyes a little more.
