WE HAVE HAD A CRISIS HERE. JAMES' FRIEND AND OUR ADOPTED SON CHRIS WERE DRINKING IN THE GARAGE. THEY HAD BEEN DRINKING FOR A LONG TIME TODAY. WHEN I LEFT AROUND 1:30 TO GET MY HAIR DONE CHRIS ASKED ME TO BUY HIM A PACK OF CIGARETTES AND I SAID YES. WHEN I GOT HOME AROUND 4:30 JAMES WAS PAST OUT ON THE COUCH AND CHRIS HAS FALLEN ONTO THE FLOOR. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT IT. ROGER CAME HOME A FEW MINUTES AFTER I DID AND TRIED TO GET CHRIS ONTO THE COUCH. CHRIS WAS DEAD. WE TRIED TO DO CPR ON HIM UNTIL THE AMBULANCE CAME BUT HE NEVER CAME BACK. RIGHT NOW THE HOUSE IS FILLED WITH COPS AND DETECTIVES. THEY ARE WAITING FOR A WARRANT TO SO THEY CAN SEARCH THE HOUSE. THEY SAID THAT WILL TAKE ABOUT 4 TO 5 HOURS. AS IT STANDS NOW JAMES COULD BE AN ACCESSORY TO A HOMICIDE.
WHEN THEY DO A SEARCH THEY WILL FIND DRUG AND NEEDLES IN JAMES' ROOM. THEY HAVE US IN THE LIVING ROOM AND FOLLOW US EVERYWHERE WE GO, WATCHING US.
I DON'T KNOW HOW JAMES WILL HANDLE THIS. CHRIS WAS HIS VERY BEST FRIEND. HE STAYED HERE WITH US. I'M SCARED OF WHAT JAMES MIGHT TRY TO DO.
I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THAT CHRIS IS GONE. HE WAS ONLY 24 YEARS OLD. HE HAD HIS WHOLE LIFE A HEAD OF HIM. MY HEART IS BREAKING. HIS POOR PARENTS WILL HAVE TO HEAR IT FROM THE HOSPITAL.
WE ARE SUPPOSE TO LEAVE AT 3:00 THIS MORNING. GOD HELP US ALL.

Does anyone else feel pressure to always reply because you're afraid it'll be the last conversation?

Hi everyone. This is my first post here.I lost my brother in December 2024 to an accidental overdose. He passed away suddenly in his sleep. We were only a year and a half apart in age, and he was the closest person I've ever had.One thing I've been struggling with ever since is that I feel an overwhelming pressure to reply to texts and answer calls as soon as I can. If someone messages me and I don't respond right away, my mind starts thinking, "What if something happens to them before I reply?…See More
