Yep, that's the best way to describe it...horrifying. That's how Danny got started and that was his progression...truly, just like the experience of losing a child, the drawn out downfall of addiction cannot be described or really imagined. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. Sometimes I think Duterte in the Philippines has the right idea with drug dealers and traffickers (obviously not users, they need treatment).
Thanks Tom...I understand, there's some dark humor to be had, I'm just not there right now.
