Thank you, I know you may not get the chance to answer this. (then going to work on my singing. I will never be whole again and I keep stuffing the pain down and filling the hole in my soul with heroin but I never am rid of the pain nor am I ever joyful and worst I think of allI dont even feel alive. Also I read somewhere that Layne wanted kids of his own is that true? I am so sorry for Kathleen (Ds mom) to have lost her children like this. I find it hard to believe. By blaming Jerry and the rest of Laynes friends I also have to blame myself for moving so far away and losing touch. This was probably 91. I was just being a bit of a creep and trying to piece together when he lived where and for how long. I promised both I would never read it, but the excerps I have seen are ridiculous. but I cant help but wonder if he had stayed living there, if things wouldve been a lot better for Layne He wouldve have isolated himself in his ivory tower and died the way he did.

How does one know which ones will get stuck there and get in the grips of addiction? Its kinda surreal to read some of these stories from people who were actually there. At that point, Staley had already been to rehab after an intervention. As for cotton what as ridiculous thing to say. Sure, that might work for a short while but ultimately addicts need more incentives in their life then how someone else feels and those two things shame and guilt can also completly back fire on family members who always seem to try this route too and it will just cause their addict to go deeper and farther into their addiction and they may begin to isolate themselves emotionally and physically away from the people who made them feel that way because they dont wanna let them down anymore or let them see the disgusting mess they know theyve become.. so theyll just remove themselves from their lives instead.. breaking everyones hearts including their own. I just wish that they both had survived, Layne marrying her, but it seems that she didnt want to get married. Survivors include her daughter, Jeanne Blair of Indianola; seven grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren and six great-great-grandchildren.

Mrs. Austin, you tell of how Demri suffered, how she had gifts, it was her calling in life to teach and not to learn and to give unconditional love to all, yet you put her grandmother and the headstone that she made for Demri, down. Since both Staley and Cobain were smackheads and ran with the same musicians, the assumption was he might know something. Ill be thinking of you. What could he dofight back? Demri Lara Parrott, died due to complication of endocarditis on Oct 29th 1996. Ive also met some true asshole addicts but they were usually born that way. It is so scary and so serious. What do I have to do? Its extremely heartbreaking. Hi Barbara, I remember right after Layne passed that you sent me a beautiful email about Demri. They were less like brothers than like a weird married couple. . While it warms my heart that people want to know about her, care about her, love her and most of all have not forgotten her genuinely unique gifts. Its also sad that she took Layne down that path with her. For instance, I would never trade my mother for anything in the world and she would give her last breath for me. I know they seem crazy and all, but I have heard peoples stories on YouTube about how veganism, particularly the type that involves mostly raw fruits (unprocessed raw produce is key) changed their lives.

She would be in there for months at a time following serious operations on her heart that left a foot long scar on her chest, and she had a pacemaker installed. She wasnt making a lot of money back then, but she did manage to get a lot of his.
