Thanks to those who have followed suit with some kinder, gentler messages. I, too, am mad and sad about Jesse's choices (and Joey, although I am not friends with him), but know that he is a good person. Everyone makes mistakes, some need to make several before they get it. I would never expect them to be let off easy because they are nice, but I would hope that others will read these new messages and at least have enough respect to offer helpful words or none at all. Good luck, Jesse and Joey! Know that there are people out there who care.

It's unfortunate that people feel the need to judge individuals they know little or nothing about. For some of the above commentors, I realize you may know Jesse or Joey. I do feel, then, that you have the right to say from your experience what these people may be like. I know Jesse and have for many years. Meth is incredibly addictive and although you may not die from withdrawals, you feel like you might. So for those who have spoken about the "choice" that one can make, it is much more difficult than that. So please, realize that you truly don't know what it is like. It's hard. THat is not to excuse any stealing, etc. that may or may not go on with people who use drugs. Not all meth users are white trash, thieves. In fact, there are some professional individuals out there who use daily. Just keep that in mind. Jesse is a very kind and caring individual. And that's coming from someone who does not use drugs with him, is not receiving anything from him, etc. You don't know the whole story, so don't pretend to have insight into things that you cannot.

Wow! I truly feel a lot better about humanity after seeing the follow up comments to the one's that were originally posted. I had started to doubt the innate goodness of people...now I can see that there is no need for doubt. There are good, caring people out there who are willing to see people for who they are rather than what choices they have made. It just takes us a little longer to respond...rather than posting a knee-jerk response to something, we take the time to think about the individuals in which we are speaking of. Joey--I'm glad someone had faith in you. For those who are questioning Jesse--I have faith in him. I have faith that he can get this straightened out and will go on with life as the caring, kind individual he is. He'll always have those of us who truly know him in his corner. Drugs or not.
