When he went to play baseball they were gone and he was "free." He was at a bar one night hanging out and just got sucked into peer pressure. It led to a major addiction. So sad how that happens.<br /><br />Thanks for the comments!ModernDayDrifterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10842026842594128896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4165558285673999225.post-15979406290630172572010-04-13T13:37:12.921-05:002010-04-13T13:37:12.921-05:00What an amazing journey this guy has taken.

What I find frightening & fascinating is to wonder (I haven't read much about the road that led him into his addictions). What drives a guy that no one would expect to get mixed up in such things to even messing with things like cocaine?<br /><br />I mean, I can understand the guys who started fooling around with steroids and such, because they were trying to further their career. But how turned around did Josh have to become at that time to find any upside to trying cocaine for the first time.<br /><br />Great post!Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03726858055689145824noreply@blogger.com
