First Love & Street Smarts ???

Oh yes the first love. He had been in some trouble. HE is a cute, and nice fella. BUT when all the stuff happened with him OMG. He was arrested in a larger nearby town selling E. He was given a sentence that was very stiff. 12 years. We made trips to the prison to see him because he is the love of her life. He swore to me they NEVER did drugs. She would not even smoke POT. He has always told me that and still will give me the same story. So I believe him. That night she was on her way to see him and could not get a hold of him. So she called his friend to see where he was and he told her to turn around and go home. We live about an hour away. Well that "Friend" set him up which led to his arrest and 12 year sentence. That is when all hell pretty much broke loose. Bre had a great paying job. A new car "that she paid for". She decided to move into her own apartment. It was all great so wethought. What the hell happened from there I will never ever understand. She gave up on the first love and another fella moved in with her. She worked with me at the time. I noticed she was sick a lot. My best friend dropped the biggest bomb shell anyone could ever have dropped. Bre was snorting heroin. OH NO NOT MY BABY!!!!! She just has the flu, I told my friend. Well she knew from her own experience with her daughter. Which the girls never were friends before. They knew each other and didn't like each other much. Well maybe 6 mos went by and Bre asked my friend for help. She took her to a detox and rehab about 2 hours away. It was around Christmas time. We were hoping that we caught this disease in time. It had not been that long and she realized she needed help. I thank god she had someone to go to. She was unaware that we knew about her problem. That is why she went to my friend and she also knew her daughter had the same problem because I helped my friend during all her frustration and agony. Well back to the street smarts. Her First Love must have taught her the ins and outs of the streets because our child has seen more things in her lifetime than a lot of people will ever see. I know lifestyles are different and I do NOT condemn anyone regarding the life style they choose. I just cannot imagine living life on the edge. The way edge. I respect everyone on how they choose life, however I do NOT agree with Illegal activities such as drugs and violence.
