BIOGRAPHICAL STORIES DISPEL DRUG MYTHS

Thanks so much for your biographical series about the tragic
drug-related deaths of young people in our area.

Though the stories are terribly painful to read, they are important
because they do so much to dispel the deadly myths about drugs:

Myth No. 1: The drug problem is only in the city.

Myth No. 2: Some drugs (i.e. marijuana) are harmless.

Myth No. 3: Good kids don't do drugs.

After reading your latest story, I put it in front of my 13-year-old
nephew and asked him to read it.

I hope he does.
