Thank you time0. You're right.

Overdose, Aids, suicide, accidental.

Dead is dead is dead, it doesn't matter.

When my other brother, the one that died of Aids told me he was HIV he said,

"I played with fire and I got burnt. If I knew the 'disease' had come to (insert city here) I would've been more careful."

He never said he would've quit. Just that he would've bleached his needles.

Maybe this is surfacing because I just learned of the death of yet another one of their friends. Cirrhosis of the liver this time. That and Hep C are getting the ones who aren't od-ing and suffocating on their vomit or dying from Aids.

Maybe this will pass soon. There are only a few of them left.
