ItÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s kind of hard to address the problem (Overdose rate climbing in the Okanagan) when friends and family would rather sit on their hands and not use tough love to get their loved one the help they need. Not sure if itÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s a lackadaisical attitude or lack of spine, but every person that ODÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™d had someone in their circle who knew they were taking drugs, and someone else who introduced them to it.
So, what is it? You donÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™t care? You donÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™t want to be the person that steps up? YouÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™re worried about being the Ï㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥˜bad guyÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™ for doing the right thing? You donÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™t think itÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s your business to say anything?
Then guess what? Your loved one is playing Russian Roulette, and itÏ㽶ÊÓƵֱ²¥™s just a matter of time until you get the call.
