I do find it hard to have sympathy when people die of drug overdoses and such.

I'm in quite a difficult situation in real life actually thats quite on topic to this thread. My father-in-law has his ex partner living with him as she is fresh out of hospital. She is dying, she looks like a walking corpse, shes only about 30 or so. Alcohol has ****ed her totally and IMO shes just been sent home to die as they know theres nothing they can do for her as shes been in and out before and gets clean, then starts drinking again as soon as shes home. Yet rather than focussing on getting better/a bit more healthy, she just rants on about how he wont let her have a drink. Its going to be better all round when she manages to get hold of a pint and dies really(hospital told her that even a little drink at this stage will kill her)..trying to help her is just delaying the inevitable. She's never going to be better. And I am expected to feel sorry for her? **** that, she brought it on herself and is continuing to bring it on herself.
