As a loved one, you have to be alert. Age has shown me that its probably good that I didnt, as Ive never had any sort of chemical dependancy nor drug habits, and been overall successful in my life. BECAUSE YOU ARE SICK AND TIRED OF BEING SICK AND TIRED!! I am just curious if this is something Demris mom had to face with her kids, especially since some did get caught in addictions. Its the worst pain in the world. "Died" takes this Up to Eleven. you can find these new pics on the Instagram account called memoriesofdemri . HML from what I understand, Layne spent a lot of time in the slumped forward position while he was nodding when heroin users experience their rush and then get sleepy they sortof nod off and then wake up and then nod again He used for so long and slumped forward a long time and that affected his posture and height. Again not blaming if we knew then what we know now. I know this is an old ass post and comment but I agree, this post is weird as fuck. I hope so. Mike Starr said he was going to be best man at Layne and Demri's wedding. I just feel that sometimes Jerry does not get enough credit for the good things that he has done. You could say that I believe in alternative medicine, have you heard about the raw vegan/ vegan movement? Demri was super-funny and very forward. She knew him off the drugs and on and had been there from the start. Omg, those TIGHTS! The report further exposed that Parrot did not use it until the Alice in Chains singer became a part of her life. Did you hear this new record by this band? And I loved itI thought it was so cute. Demri didnt have money she combed the carpet and started using again. Thank you for visiting the site and showing love for the ones we love. Hi Barbara, I was just checking in to see if there are any new posts an I noticed your comment about the books. Im on suboxone tho. You have done so much, been through so much, God bless you.

She was only 27.Alice in Chains manager Susan Silver told journalist Greg Prato in his book "Grunge Is Dead: The Oral History of Seattle Rock Music" that she was the one who went to Layne's apartment to tell him that Demri had died. Maybe some of Dems other friends can help you to confirm if that is really her but I say 100% NO.. but you should ask Fab what she thinks or Darin Lamb. SORRY, but no one Ive known has ever STAYED clean for someone elses sake, because theyve been shamed or guilt tripped into getting clean. The EMTS never did anything but save your friends life. Staley was on the sofa, illuminated by a flickering television. I know Im near death, Staley continued. She will know it sooner or later. Dear Barbara, "Died" is a song by Alice in Chains and the final one recorded with vocalist Layne Staley before his death in 2002. In the six years between Demri's death and Layne's, he never even began to get over her. WTF are you talking about? If your brain and body like it your brain and your body will talk you into trying it again.. and again and before you know itand pretty soon you cant stop itand even if your brain and your body agree with your heartdrug addiction is cunning. We live in a world of selfishness. I stumbled across it by chance. Dearest Dem, I will forever miss you..you silly, sweet, wild and precious fairy child. Alice in Chains was the first of grunge's big four to break out, but Nirvana clearly won the to-the-death competition. I apologize ms. Susan. I do get it a little but its silly.

Truly a loving person. Its been a doubt to me, because Ive also read in a lot of interviews from 97, 98, that Mark was already living in La because of rehab and stuff like that but sometimes would come to Seattle, although he moved to LA in 98but yeah, it might be possiblethanx again! The blue hat was given to the EMP by me at Mike Starrs service there. So . Demri has haunted me on a regular almost daily basis since I first learned about her story.

Layne continued touring, they both continued the drugs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBZm-_6Qa3k, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL29f0AehNI, Oh Barbara, I was just waitting for your confirmation but now im very disappointed:( But anyway thank you very much for this site. I hope it helps you as well. Most of us refused to turn someone on for the first time. After that, I dont think he wanted to go on.. And we all know about Laynes death, alone in his apartment for weeks before anyone found him. I didnt get a album to hang on my wall which would have shown something for all the hard work. Thats when he came back and Demri left. People call to make sure they are listed in the Thank Yous on an album. A little flower wild child girl who wont be never ever forgotten and will be for ever and for always loved and missed. Now whether or not Layne ever knew just how much I liked him, I dont know, but Demri knew. And there used to be a girl in my life who reminds me of Demri a lot. He was also reported to be put under suicide watch. She was just honestly sweet and kind to literally everyone around her. There is a popular opinion that Demri introduced Layne to drugs after they started dating. Xana here, just wanted to let you know the photo of Demri at friends was my photo and taken at my apt in Hollywood, she did not even know the people in the photo, they m,et about 5 min before I took the photo. I was somewhat envious of her because Layne always seemed to forgive her each time, and there is something TO that, but at the same time I felt I was right; she was making a mess of things and she was in big trouble. To be honest.. Ive never read Demris obituary but wed have to ask the person who wrote it why Rosheen was not mentioned.. maybe they did not want to confuse people? Best Of Luck to you Ms. Jacqueline from Scotland. Survivors include her daughter, Jeanne Blair of Indianola; seven grandchildren; 15 great-grandchildren and six great-great-grandchildren. How does one know which ones will get stuck there and get in the grips of addiction? Their pain or their struggle.

Im sorry that your friends made so many mistakes that caused them to lose their life. I could go on and on, but simply wanted to leave my mark on this site, and thanking Barbara for keeping it alive for all this time. The last public appearance he made was almost four years before his death when he attended his bandmate Jerry Cantrells solo concert in Seattle on Halloween in 1998. I was the only one with a real job and I should have been saving to travel but spent it on making Andy look amazing and it irks me to think someone is claiming to have made his hats! I wish Demri had that same desire, to want to be an actress/model, who read books, studied acting. Not to mention the way she speaks about Jerry Lets not forget that the guy wrote (and still writes) most of the beautiful and haunting AIC music. Living your life not feeling happy is not the way you were meant to live. I have no doubt in my mind about that. Im sure we all have that person that has this strange magnetic effect on us and we dont exactly know why. I guess there is so little real information out there, so these kinds of stories become defacto fact. I wanted to also check in on you and see how youre doing with your recovery and your heart? On the other, Staley's affair with heroin got serious fast. Layne was very true to Demri in his heart, but he related many, many wild touring adventures to me.. In 1993, when the band was touring in support of "Dirt," Staley would walk offstage midsong to get high. It is around this point he cut her off financially so he was not supporting her addiction. The would cut and bag their heroin. She will forever be loved and missed. God bless her, and God bless Layne, not just because I feel for them both, but because I hope that both are pain free in Heaven. Then again, all the dealers would come to his house anyway, because, hey, he was Layne Staley. They both died alone, I know Demris mother and Aunt were with her, but in truth, everyone dies alone. She had her own connections for buying heroin and she could afford that, but it was LAYNES fault that she got sick b/c he hadnt bought her cotton before he left. And Layne tried it, and he said that was the first time he really thanked God. Today the site received a comment from Demri's Mom Kathleen which is so special . Just wanted to say hi and that I really love all the site and all the posts about Layne and Demris music, art and lives. (Back then we were still afraid of Aids and stuff and I dont mean Layne and Demri but others that came over. I know that you have a busy life, but Ill never forget that you emailed me info on Demri, such as her liking of decoupage with Angels & Victorian art, which she used & put on boxes as gifts for friends. I have noticed that Layne is very tall, upright in his earlier career. Layne did mention that he was affected by Kurts death. I hope and pray that youre ok today, to live and tell more of your story. A week went by and my symptons worsened. Haha! On one hand, the two bands got up to some hilarious business pranking each other. This site has been around. Which is a good thing trust me. Is that because of damage to his skeletal system due to heroin? It was kept by a friend over the years, who had it in a box and it was in perfect condition. She was apparently very chatty, witty and loud. I have no clue where or how that rumor ever got started but it is for sure not Demri. Demri and Layne were awesome people who had a fatal disease but that did not make them bad people. then announces the song say hello to heaven. layne'i hayatta tutan tek insand belki. It was drilled into him how his life and career would be over if she OD on his watch so he was afraid to have her around if she was using. She couldve been so much more, its a shame. Its hard to have someone understand that you didnt get off the couch all day because you just couldnt get up or because you want to rip the painful gaping hole out of your chest. They werent dating at the time, just sharing the apartment. This was probably 91. It was the other way around. 1 person I know said he came by their house in Seattle and wanted them to come to his car to see if this girl O.D.d. Other things as her signature scent, patchouli oil, which brightens your home & others, have brought me joy. Thank you for this website and your time. She was so young, so beautiful the tragic muse, a fairy. But I will say this: Jerry saw this coming. It sucks that NOBODY commented other than the one person but most people are so busy they dont even know its Oct 29th. During those years, Staley became a recluse and barely left his apartment. If people wanted to not just voice their opinion and get their hands dirty they could have, they chose not to and got jealous of the ones that did. The did accept him but it never worked out. I am here to support if I can but a simple chat is as far as Ill go. She also told Starr something that very likely helped him sleep better at night: "Layne would forgive you. Not a day goes by when I dont think of the both of them. That Koa story has been particularly perplexing and I never could figure out exactly how it fit in. Barbara you are right on that they suffered from a fatal disease- and also right that drugs arent worth dabbling in. Its like someone out there looking for a job and you cant find one but you keep trying and trying but after a while you just give in to the fact that its not going to happen and you stop trying. Producer Dave Jerden watched as Staley disintegrated after a dressing-down from Cantrell: "Layne, who had such a strong personality, had completely turned into this nothing.". She was really sweet and really cool. I never met him, but thats according to people who did.

God bless them both, may both be in Heaven with G0Ds good graces falling upon them. His father was an addict as well. It is a horrible existence. She had three younger half-brothers from her mother's side, Devin Remme . Demri Lara Parrott Murphy was an amateur actress, girlfriend, and later fiancee of Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley, who lived from February 22, 1969 to October 29, 1996. They were engaged to marry on 1992.However, in the years that followed "Dirt"'s success, Layne and Demri drifted apart, and their engagement broke sometime in 1994, although she features in the cover of Mad Season's "Above". Demri did NOT get Layne into heroin. You lose the internet Susan bc you obviously dont give a shit about other people that have to concentrate on sobriety every day, work a full time job, pay bills, take care of kids, etc. They broke up, in part because she couldn't accept his relentless womanizing. My sister also was an addict and passed away in 2008. If so, what kind. I desperately want my life back, and as much as I adore the aforementioned people, I have no desire to follow in their footsteps and go to my grave this young. Its all in your head how this life is and if you can find away to stay positive then everything wont look so dark. Just one of many reasons I want to be cremated so Im not out in a cemetery forgotten about like by some prick like that! She stayed with whoever would let her in during her final year, and was taken in by the father of a friend. Thank you for this wonderful website. Oh lord, the jokes ;D They would go out together and a lot of people thought they were gay. Ive read things on here claiming that she took his money and relied on him financially, but I cant say Ive ever read anything to say this is true. However I also want her to know others have been there before and youre not alone. One night, Alice in Chains dressed up as strippers in skimpy panties and combat boots, and followed Van Halen on stage, aping their signature walk. Thank you and I am sorry too just been very emotional lately with all going onno disrespect to this wonderful page or people. It was for that, not because he was mean or wanted to date, he just wanted them both to get well and even said he wished Rehab had Co-Addictive Behavior Counselling for couples, which I was trying to help with at Wickenburg. It took Layne Staley, Alice in Chains' lead singer, a while longer to kill himself with a speedball. Do not let it get YOU! also if you look up Demri Parrott Dave Hillis, theres a pic of her in not great condition soon before she passed. You will be ok. Love lots of love. Its quite ridiculous. Its not Angry Chair, its the revised addition, Get Born Again. He always kept saying that he had slipped. Most of what everyone heard then was nonsense. Demri and I share the same birthday. In 1996, Staley's life was turned upside down when his former fiance, Demri Lara Parrott, died of a drug overdose and when she passed, so did a bit of Staley. It steals everything from us including everything that makes us who we are the things we love about ourselves and then it takes our very last breathe before we even know how far gone we are. Ive really been inspired by a lot of Laynes music, both AIC and Mad Season. Im sure a lot of people would like to see a video of Demri. What a beautiful comment. Its such a shame that these 2 talented people were taken from their families and friends at such young ages. I was just being a bit of a creep and trying to piece together when he lived where and for how long. She was also bisexual, which was not as accepted in the early 90s as it is now, and there are some beautiful photos taken of her with a girlfriend. Haha. Helping as a group also made too much sense. Ill try to sum this up as much as i can. You can tell when theyre lifers. Did Layne Staley go to toys your us to buy games? Hopefully its still like that because its important that addicts be able to call for help without worrying theyre gonna go to jail. Just as Alice in Chains became famous, Staley's girlfriend, Demri Lara Parrott, introduced him to heroin. Again Thank you so much for sharing your story it is important that we all share our stories with each other openly and honestly so another person does not fall into the same trap. SomeoneI dont want to say whobrought him some heroin because they couldnt find any coke. ~Kat. Layne had told her that if she started using drugs again hed have to make her leave. But then I was never much more than a witness. Starr, after a stint on VH1's "Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew" and "Sober House," overdosed on prescription drugs in 2011. Im grateful to be 19 years clean and sober and also I stopped before my body got thrashed ( although coke alcohol and pot were my drugs of choice, not heroin).
