Sounds way too similar to a friend of mine. He held a very high position at a post secondary institute and had gotten to that place in life at a very young age. He had an accidental fentanyl overdose when he was traveling in Victoria, B.C.
He left behind a wife and 2 young children. He wasn't some junkie or some drain on resources or society, he genunely made the world a better place and was actively involved with several charities.
Users come from all walks of life but the stigma surrounding users keeps a lot of it in the dark.
Some day after decriminalization becomes the norm in the world, we will all wonder why governments took a hard stance against drugs at any point in time on it.
