DON'T THE KIDS CARE?

I went to the wake of the most recent heroin victim, Eli Lizauckas. I lost
my daughter, Natacha Campbell, in February, and I know the pain the family
is suffering now, and forever.

I looked around the crowd and wondered, who's next?

We now know the drug is stronger than the kids. Even the kids (and young
adults) who have appeared to "kick the habit," and helping as much as they
can to help others, just cannot do it! Why? How can a drug take over our
babies like it has? How can it kill so many, and the kids are still willing
to risk not only their own lives, but their friends' lives, by getting the
drug for them? Even if he got the drug from someone other than a friend,
who was at his party who was a friend?

Why didn't they do something?

Can't you kids be accountable for your friends? Do you not care if they
die, or are you all addicted to heroin and don't care about anything except
the next fix?
