Had a friend who beat heroin for at least 10 years.

Turned his life around. Got himself a sharp, smart young bride who made business suits look terrific. They had a son and everything was peachy. Heard he picked up. No one seems to know where he is now.

Heroin keeps on coming. He told me that, and I didn't really understand it until I heard he did it again after all of those years as well as how it killed Garrett Reid, the son of Eagles head coach Andy Reid.

When police searched the dormitory room Garrett Reid, who passed away one August Sunday morning at training camp, a source said they found needles, drug paraphernalia. 

Apparently he'd been out the night before at Musikfest in Bethlehem.
