Why are we dehumanizing people who are suffering?

Before I continue, I think it’s important to acknowledge that while, yes laced heroin is what killed my brother in the end … he was no different than you. Just substitute drug addiction with your addiction of choice. Instagram? Social media? I’m making a strong assumption that social media is what led you to discover this blog. What’s your screen time like? Mine averages about 4 hours a day since I began blogging. I’m addicted to social media. I’d say a majority of the population is.

When John died, the recent pictures I have of him are not what killed me. What killed me was his baby book. The way he’d drag his Beanie Babies around on a string pretending they were out for a walk. The way he’d explore our backyard and play with our puppies. His innocent laugh as he ran around the house tormenting his sisters the way only little brothers can.My parents never saw this coming. No more than I can see my boys’ future. No more than you can see your kids future.
