My mom died when she was 60, she added.
60 is too damn young to die.
She continued, I then googled drug overdose deaths (another fun morning google!!!)
and it is over 100 thousand people per year.
Lourd opened up about helping her mother get sober but sadly my mom couldnt ever escape her addiction.
As an addict, being open about the struggle is the only way through.
And same goes for those of us affected by that struggle, Lourd said.
Sending my love to anyone out there who has lost someone to drug addiction.
You are not alone.
