What a Labor Day

You can read my last post about the plans for this past Labor Day weekend. All went as planned, except for the fact that a close friend of mine OD'd on methadone and died for a moment. The EMT's were able to resuscitate him, but he inhaled his own vomit and that didn't help things. We've all made stupid decisions in our lives, but this guy has made several and has had lots of chances to turn things around. I believe this was his final wake-up call. All of the people that truly care about him visited him in the hospital, and everyone finally said what has needed to be said to him for a while. With any luck, and hopefully power of attorney taken by him mother, he'll be in rehab for a while, get cleaned, maybe move out of the state for a bit, and come back as the person he really is: a very funny individual that loves life and is one of the best DJ's I've had the honor of playing alongside. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed.
