I got a call yesterday that a friend of mine OD'ed the other night. She had a daughter. She was a single mom. She had been struggling for years. My heart breaks for her mom, and especially for her little girl. No Mom, no Dad.

This was the BIGGEST factor in my decision to get clean. My daughters father got arrested in August for none other than selling dope, and I absolutely knew that my precious daughter had to have me sober bc I'm all she's got. Who knows if her Dad will get clean...regardless, she needed me at my best. By the grace of God I have 7 months now. I pray every day that I can keep being strong.

I lost my Aunt to a heroin overdose, Nov. 2014, one month before my daughter was born. She was like my 2nd mom. I lost three friends to overdoses April 2015, bringing the total to 13 of my friends or loved ones that have died from drugs or alcohol related deaths. The madness has to stop! Praying for all the families & the addicts that are still out there. May you wake up to see another day. It's never to late to stop. [emoji26][emoji26][emoji25][emoji24]
