My great uncle died earlier this summer.

My uncle joe died two months ago after a lifetime of illness.

My cousin who is my age, 32, died today of a drug overdose.

Please if you have a substance use issue-seek help.

Sorry for your losses, Hallie.

I think it is very brave of you to raise awareness. Remember to be kind to yourself during this time.

I am deeply sorry for ALL of your Losses, HALLIE! Take ALL the time you need to Grieve. Thank you also for speaking up abou the Substance Abuse. It is really important to acknowledge that we have a problem, if we do have one. It is the first step. Keep writing here, my Friend, and hopefully you'll feel better soon. I hope your Uncle, Great Uncle and Cousin will be able to Rest In Peace Now. I'll keep you ALL in my Thoughts and Prayers. Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @HALLIEBETH87, Your Family, Your Friends, your Cousin, your Uncles, your Great Uncle and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK, MY DEAR, SWEET, KIND, ASWESOME AND WONDERFUL FRIEND?! KEEP IT UP!
