Let's don't have a drink for Claudette
She faced three fatal diseases in her life: cancer, depression, and addiction.
Cancer was the easiest one to beat. Fuck cancer, but fuck depression and addiction harder.
The most appropriate thing I can think of, then, is that we don't have a drink in her memory. Remember her as we do not have a drink to her this week.
This will be of different levels of difficulty for everyone, and I don't mean to set your agenda, but for me, I will raise an empty glass every night this week.
And to every dwellar, for all time, if you have depression or alcoholism, get treatment. For fuck's sake, if you can't do it for yourself, do it for us. We will be here for you.
