I mean, I think it takes up quite a bit of your attention, you know, being a junkie.

Because it's quite a complicated process and you have to keep finding it and buying it, you know.

So, yes, it changed that.

And our relationship, no, I mean, I knew very little about it.

I had to sort of look up, you know, as it were.

what drug addicts were, you know.

We didn't know a whole lot about it.

So I just thought, oh, he spends a lot of time in the bathroom or whatever and worried about him.

But eventually, you know, eventually we discussed it openly and I was basically saying to him, what can I do to help?

And so I helped him in whatever way I could.

And, of course, the actual process of becoming clean took him years.

But eventually, of course, he did it very successfully.

Well, actually, Danny Korchmar is a key figure yet again in this story.
