Damn.

You are one of us, Melissa. Thoughts are with you.

That's terrible.

Can't imagine going through that. So sad.

I was really sorry to read this. A girl who was a great friend of mine at Mizzou lost her son a couple years ago to suicide. He jumped off the Natchez Trace Bridge outside of Nashville. He was 18. Just awful to lose someone that young. Melissa is a wonderful Chiefs fan. My heart goes out to her and family.

That is heartbreaking. Condolences to her and family. And as a person that has lost a family member and friend to addiction, I can certainly relate.

RIP

It’s sad that people abuse these medications and there are people who need them but now can’t get them without tons of jumping through hoops bullshit.

Sad and ironic. This was the infant that made mild news back in the day because already aging hippy burnout genius David Crosby donated his sperm to the lesbian couple.

It's horrible, and my goes out to her and her partner...but Goddamn, what the fuck did she expect with those genetics?

So he overdosed? Killed himself??
