Tonight's blog title was written on the dry erase board as we all walked in this morning. It became the major focus of our discussion throughout the day/
Part of that had to with the (sort of) loss of a group member. Apparently the pull of heroin was too much for "E" and her parents checked her into a closed facility. This hit Iggy pretty hard, as he felt he (and we as a group) were doing her some good. How wrong we were I guess.
I met my first meth-addict today. I'm going to include a photo, and I certainly do not mean to be cruel or flippant about her appearance, but damn... she looked just like a certain South Park character. I've read that doing meth eats away at your body... but wow... I didn't know it would do that kind of damage to someone's teeth. She is apparently in her 30's... but looks nearly twice as old!
Again, not being judgmental! I swear! I hope she finds some solace and some sense of calm during her stay with us.
