Who knows why she started? She has had an addictive personality for most of her adult life. It was pills several years ago, but she stopped that. I do know that, as a single mother, she had that stress in her life, but we gave so much support and help when she needed it. She was a great mother, my best friend, and had so much going for her!

The father of her 3-yr-old has never been part of the picture except for some financial support here and there. That may be when the meth use started---he has addiction problems of his own. He was in a car wreck a month ago and is still in the hospital.
