Just doing some pathology studying. this information is right out of my text book.

Drugs of Addiction:
The mechanism of brain damage caused by morphine, cocaine, and other related drugs
(such as crystal meth) is being investigated but poorly understood. In the acute situation, cocaine and meth can be associated with intracerebral hemorrhage, thought to be due to transient severe hypertension.

AKA - Taking those drugs severely increases one's blood pressure at the time, and makes that individual extremely suscepitble to brain hemorrhage..causing death.

I think that makes my point pretty clear. I hope the right eyes are laying upon this information. You know who you are. I'll bring you your l word this weekend. stay strong, cuz i kno you can.
