So yay my 26th anniversary of entering the Church.
Motherhood is hard. Sometimes excruciatingly so. But that’s not a bad thing.

OK, that was fun.
Went live. Expected like one person to accidentally tune in. At most.
There were…considerably more of you than that.
Maybe we’ll make this a recurring thing?

Correction to your post. You state that Neely died on the subway. He had a pulse after being released to the cops and was transported to the hospital. Because there was no EMS on site he was not pronounced dead until after arrival at the hospital. Did he die on the subway? Maybe, but you cannot state that as true as there was no one of medical authority there to declare it so.
He was alive when turned over to the police and pronounced dead at the hospital is the fact of the matter.
Nobody wanted to save him, so he wasn't saved. He was written off as being unworthy because he was dirty and probably diseased. Not condemning anyone, just saying that seems to have been the consensus.
No, probably not. As I said, I'm not condemning anyone for anything. Just making an observation.
Fentanyl, carfentinil, and Tranq are an epidemic where I live. They give us all free Narcan to carry around and use if you see someone overdosing. Are you kidding me??!! I'm not getting within ten feet of someone who's ODing. Because if it's too much for THEM, it sure is gonna be deadly for ME. That "good Samaritan" shit goes right out the window when my life is threatened.
There was actually a local cop who nearly died some years back, trying to save somebody. He actually got a little bit of the drug on his shirt and brushed it off. That was enough to send him into a coma.
