    In 18 years I’ve personally discovered 20 bodies.

        I did spend a few years managing a retirement community, and a few more managing subsidized housing where opioid overdoses were the leading cause. So my stats are probably higher than the average.

          How did you react the first time it happened? Was it your first time seeing a dead person ?

            Walked in on a guy who was just sitting there. I immediately knew but completely denied it for about 10 minutes. “He’s just pining for the fjords.”
