I am sorry this will be a very personal entry, and I'm sorry if it offends anyone.
Today started actually very nice; I woke up got ready for work, and went to work on time. Today started just like every other day. I even remarked on my Facebook page how beautiful the day here in FL was. Unfortunately the day did not turn out so beautiful. I got a call from my best friend back home in So. MD, and was told some very heart wrenching news. A friend that we went to high school with, and who lived with my mom and me for a while committed suicide today. Her name is Becki, and when we were friends she was so full of life and energy. She was married and had a little boy, and apparently within the past couple years became addicted to heroine just like so many others I knew.
See where I used to live has become ramp-id with narcotic abusers. People start out with small stuff then start crushing Oxycontin for the high. Then they start using the big H bomb. Unfortunately from what I have gathered since the first call at 4:45 pm Becki had succumbed to this life. I am not sure how it started, nor why she decided to end her pain. She decided to end her pain by hanging herself!All I know is to end your own life when you have a child you must be tortured terribly.
So this is to my Becki, I pray that you will finally know peace!R.I.P Becki Belcher
This is an update to my post. I found out that my friend was not back on drugs, and it had nothing to do with them. Becki was suffering from severe depression. I guess the weight of the world was too heavy for her to bear.
