Addiction is no joke, I go to med school so I spend a lot of time in the hospital and its just awful what being addicted to something does to people. I believe its the second version. Ive been writing on this website now for at least 4-5 years and before that I would write about my memories on my personal blogs (Divageekdesigns.com and ibdreamy.livejournal.com) when I was missing them or whateverbut those posts got so much attention.. over the years that I finally decided to create a website dedicated to them. There was one time I found a spoon, and it was obvious what it had been used for. Well, I found two videos with the same interview, but I can not post the comment with the link and I do not know why.

Then, two things changed. Layne and Demri in the Sea of Sorrow video. Do you know that the book about Mike Starr on Amazon is like $100 bucks? and a life without it again can seems totally unrealistic and near impossible to ALOT of addicts if not all and that may sound stupid, heartless of them but most addicts Ive known are also the most sensitive, loving, non-judgmental and wisest people Ive known. It is not worth your life and the heartbreak of your family just to see what its like.

Thank you Ana and yes addiction destroys your body Thank you for bringing that up. She died in the hospital late in 1996. Why? Her cause of death was an acute intoxication and the combined effects of opiate, meprobamate and butalbital. She would be in there for months at a time following serious operations on her heart that left a foot long scar on her chest, and she had a pacemaker installed. Im determined to fight this demon, and be a better daughter, sister, aunt and friend to those who love me. Dating history: Layne Staley (1988 1994) Mrs. Austin, you tell of how Demri suffered, how she had gifts, it was her calling in life to teach and not to learn and to give unconditional love to all, yet you put her grandmother and the headstone that she made for Demri, down. For all she claimed she wanted to be known as Demri, not Layne's girlfriend, she rode that and took whatever she could from it. Hey Amber, I know its been awhile since your comment was posted, but do you by any chance happen to know for sure that Layne moved out of the Ward Street house in 93? Now I see it selling online for $200!! Why do you think it is so hard to stop? I try to study the different religions, lead a good life, treat others like I want to be treated and reach out to others who need it. I had started working for Sony Records at the time, doing a regional A&R job, and with them being signed to a Sony label, it was a little bit awkward for both us. Inflammation Of The Heart Caused By A Heroin Overdose How tall is Demri Parrott? Laynes father could have been that positive influence, but he only helped drive Layne to an early grave. im not an angel either, no one is, but alchohol is my stupid drug, whish it wasnt so, makes you fat and sick. I hope it helps you as well. I came across this site while listening to Laynes music on line.I along with many others loved his music and now I see why Layne loved Demri.I never new them but feel such a love from this website and the pictures of Demri and Layne. Whatever it was that happened, their names still linger and the mystery of their love and death still hangs. Kinney, though, continued to have fun the old-fashioned way on the Shi--y Cities tour in 1992. I dont know why I chose here, maybe I need to vent or maybe I just want to share a little bit of the truth as I perceived it. They both died alone, I know Demris mother and Aunt were with her, but in truth, everyone dies alone. Ive read things on here claiming that she took his money and relied on him financially, but I cant say Ive ever read anything to say this is true. Im sure that hes sad, Im sure he feels it. So sorry to hear about your Dad too and believe me I understand how easy it is to go back to the only thing we know made us numb again.

Yes, she died young, of mysterious circumstances, but she made a living for herself. Lol. I see so many other say this, I feel the same way. It will take a different catalyst for every addict to finally take that leap off the cliff and get helpsome will need to be love bombed, some will need tough love jail is not the answer but ALL will need the help of people who understand them and wont judge them and a very strong and loving support system, also time away from their old friends, sometimes family and the places theyve used in is crucial and they all need to want it at least enough to try it one day and then hopefully one more day and they will need to learn new tools to cope with their new reality and how to live their new life clean without the old faithful emotional and physical buffer of opiates. Demri Parrott. His father was an addict as well. Take care, stay strong. This fucking drug use is like the insulin a diabetic needs to survive, he said. I just stumbled upon this website and I really love reading about Demri and Layne and about their time on earth. Im at a low point in my life, and any more information about Demri would be greatly appreciated. So beautifully said, I believe the same. My mother overdosed and died 2 years before Layne. Having the time of their lives, without drugs, and living things up with harmony, peace, and love. Demri would be proud of you {{#message}}{{{message}}}{{/message}}{{^message}}Your submission failed. By 96 or so, Jerry was fed up with Laynes fear of touring. anyhow She thought he should because his stuff was there.

Someone in his life thought that was enabling Layne and suggested Johnny move out.I cant remember who it was (maybe Nancy?) For Layne to die was just sad and wrong, but for him to die alone was just an abomination. Today the sitereceived a comment from Demris Mom Kathleen which is so special because she thought of us and wanted to let us know how she felt today and I personally wanted everyone who watches this site.. friends, fans and people who loved her a chance to hear from her Demris Mom today. I know it sounds crazy but Im begging you to check it out. Barbara you remember when you came into the room at the hospital and thought you were interrupting and we got Rachel to leave so you could have some private time with Demri and she thanked you saying she felt like she had vultures over her and could feel Rachel wanted her to die so she could have Layne. No that is not true I come here today, Oct 30 to pay my respects because Oct 29th I didnt forget but rather I was being told after fighting cancer for 6 long years that the cancer had returned and given results of my scansit is now in my ovary, uterus, also back into breast and 2 lumps one blocking a duct in the breastso basically I was trying to take in that I dont have much longer to live and what I will need to do as far as my kids, etcbut still within 24hrs I came to pay my respectsjust because someone doesnt post on a site on a certain date doesnt mean that the person is still not remembered. i was born after demris passing but reading about her and seeing her photos is truly enchanting. Life is one thing after another, with drugs more so. I have nooo clue i would never have imagined in a million years Id be doing what Im doing today if I was asked back thenI have 3 kids.. She was an amazing person from what I can get, and im sorry for the bad word but f*ck the haters.all jealous people that dont know how to appreciate someone so full of life Demri was! The last public appearance he made was almost four years before his death when he attended his bandmate Jerry Cantrells solo concert in Seattle on Halloween in 1998. Hadnt seen that one in a while,its been around forever. A fascinating existence to say the least. Although Demri passed anyway, her mother remembers her fondly and without regret or anger. From the time I bought Facelift (14 then), until Laynes deathand to the present. I wish I could hug you and Thank you again for visiting my website and coming back again after 10 years thats crazy huh?

It was therapeutic and worked [for] me for a while until my dad saw my picture printed on a magazine., The singer divulged how his father became a bad influence on him. Its quite ridiculous. beautiful post, beautiful website and beautiful comment thread . If you put him in rehab, he could check himself out. Laynes riff with Jerry was for telling him he needed to go to rehab and not going himself, hearing Laynes solo music and taking it to the band and borrowing his 8-track and erasing his stuff with Maynard (I dont think Jerry noticed it was on there). Dear Barbara, Thank you for sharing about Demri. Ill try to sum this up as much as i can. That sucks! Ill do what I want! She was her own being, she did what she wanted, to the point that her tiny body couldnt take it anymore. She was really sweet and really cool. Youve lived through so much loss and heartache, and youre still there for the real fans, speaking the truth. This website was also made with the AIC fans in mind and to introduce you to themthe real Demri not just the girlfriend of Layne Staley. But it did allow me to come over for several days and get things clean a tidy, although Demri was always a neat freak around me. It wasnt a blatant thing, but it was definitely implied a couple of times that they wanted to know how he was. Sometimes, we forget that they are people too. Just saying that Demri could have done so much more. They were both so beautiful in their own weird way. Id cook up some favorite foods like my scampi tacos, phad Thai, smoked chix green chili enchiladas, and Layne loved his pot roast meal and Demri Fettuccine. She had affairs with other men and women, he had his own affairs with women. Would anynof those be from 95 or 96 ? I know I did my best or what I thought would be right. I just had to say it. Layne and Demri always thought I could help people get clean for some reason when I never did and Mike thought I could help by getting him on the show Intervention. Stay strong, stay strong, you can beat this. Heroin becomes their lover, their mother, their friend. If you have a better quality version of this photo please send it! Sure, that might work for a short while but ultimately addicts need more incentives in their life then how someone else feels and those two things shame and guilt can also completly back fire on family members who always seem to try this route too and it will just cause their addict to go deeper and farther into their addiction and they may begin to isolate themselves emotionally and physically away from the people who made them feel that way because they dont wanna let them down anymore or let them see the disgusting mess they know theyve become.. so theyll just remove themselves from their lives instead.. breaking everyones hearts including their own.
