I am no longer thetain, the originator of this thread. I started life new with a new name, teckikat. Losing my sister-in-law to drug overdose, husband to crack and then my sister to alcohol poisoning put me in the dumps for a long time. I don't believe I came back to state the cause of my sister's death was acute alcohol poisoning. She drank so fast she poisoned herself before the body's defense system could kick in and make her throw up.Since finding this out I have heard of many other people, of all ages, who have also met their end this way. Serious business to start out having a good time and not waking up from the party. I know my sister never dreamed this could happen to her or she'd have stopped. I bet she's pretty honked off in Heaven that she doesn't get to see her grandchildren she adored grow up. I've made it my goal that she not be forgotten and all gifts i give to our nieces and nephews come from her and I. I talk to her children and grandchildren about the person she was, the one they never knew.We surviving siblings say I love you at the end of every conversation now. Please, if you drink and you've read this far, STOP. The next drink could be your last one.
