I know this is an old post but why did you put Demris name in quotes? To clarify Demri was in the hospital at least 13 times I know of each time 2-4 months from 93 to 96 which didnt leave much time for her to get in trouble. I had started working for Sony Records at the time, doing a regional A&R job, and with them being signed to a Sony label, it was a little bit awkward for both us. "Died" takes this Up to Eleven. Ive always thought you were such an exotic beauty. I moved thousands of miles away, he changed his email address and, though we spoke on the phone a few times since then it was only about little things.

After that, I don't think he wanted to go on." Layne wants to quit, Demri doesnt, she has developed a fatalistic attitude towards her life. Without happiness in your life life is not worth much. I have always speculated that the girl he was referring to was her. She will know it sooner or later.

I don't know man, you can try to write your own story as much as you want to, but it feels like some people enter this world with a story already written for them. Being and ex-heroin addict myself, I know first hand the trials and tribulations that come with doing hard drugs, trying to keep a relationship going with my addicted girlfriend, and playing in a rock band, all at the same time. 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. are you Barbara, sure that your friend Rosheen died in 1997? When they began the KISS tour, Layne had been clean for a (relatively) long time, but I remember he was very scared to leave. Anyway, once Demri died it was all over him because she knew him. As I approach the 10year anniversary of the day I came home from work ( I bartended at Lindas the iconic dive bar on Seattles Capitol Hill) and discovered my sister dead in our apartment on Denny Ave N. Nobody can understand what a loss of a beloved can take from those left behind if they havent been there. they're narcissists what fuck over and throw away everything good they have in their lives.. feel sorry for fuckers struggling to survive in the third world instead of overprivileged fucks who destroy themselves on drugs cos they're so obsessed with themselves and their inadequacies.. self-fulfilling prophecies.. gross.. when you really think about it.

I had nothing left of them myself so it was like a true gift and to find pictures of my loved ones online. To Barbara or Darin do either of you know if Demri was capable of having another surgery or not? Haha. She died that night with her mother and aunt by her side.

Hopefully its still like that because its important that addicts be able to call for help without worrying theyre gonna go to jail. Many people looked after her, while Layne was on tour. Pretty soon youre just doing it to feel normal and function and you dont even get high anymore or getting high gets harder to accomplish without having to do more then usual..and rarely can you even afford to get wellbut that is also how some addicts accidentally overdose..just trying to feel it or after theyve gotten clean for awhile..like after getting out of rehab, jail or detox and then they relapse and overdose because their tolerance has gone way down and they accidentally do too much.. Thats probably almost 80% of the reasons why an addict will overdose. No one had a bad thing to say about her and honestly believe shes in that extreme minority of human beings that are inherently and intrinsically GOOD people. Although arts did not give Parrott the fame that she got from her relationship with Layne, she was in love with different aspects of it.

Most of us refused to turn someone on for the first time. Makes me wonder about the beautiful pictures of Demri above, Id love to know when they were taken. Also I do know Rachel was trying to be there for Layne after Demri died and he did let her but he said not romantically. Anyways, just some comments from me, a no one, to leave for anyone to read, so close to the Christmas holiday. They both wanted to live a normal life, get married, but the drugs stood in the way. if she had no association with Layne Staley you wouldn't give a fuck about her. How did her kids get so involved with drugs and addiction? Who would your Mom or Dad or best friend mention in your Obit? Thank you Barbara for making this site and memorial! Demri tried to warn me too and I also ignored her and lost years of my life.. that I can barely remember and doing almost everything I had always promised myself that ID NEVER DO I EVENTUALLY ENDED UP DOING THINGS I COULD NEVER OF IMAGINED ALWAYS JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE THAT FUCKING EVIL ADDICTION!! We all were our suing a buzz in those days and the idea was to just be careful. I remember I was shooting video for Nancy at one of those tributes five years ago -shooting man on the street interviews outside, and Mike pulled up in a limo and talked to some of us , and we chatted but he was high as a kite. They were both so beautiful in their own weird way. Im so glad to see the people who are able to look past her addiction because obviously there was so much more to her. Im her age, a Seattle native and recently lost my sister to heroin. I remember the first time I heard AIC I was living close to the beach and just started smoking weed and I surfed every day. You need to be happy. Not sure why I just havent.. never even held one in my hands or seen one on the shelves. So sorry to hear about your Dad too and believe me I understand how easy it is to go back to the only thing we know made us numb again. But with Demri Im not alone, and there are so many people who, like me, only know her through pictures and stories and are similarly fascinated by her. It floods your brains receptors with nothing but the good feeling chemicals and then when you try to say OK, Im done Ive had enough..Well, too badbecause your body and your brain will fight and lie to you..Just one more time it will sayyoull promise yourself over and over.. until you eventually just give up and cant fight it anymore because you get so violently sick. 2.

I adored the both of them, but we definitely had plenty of conversations that were like, Look, its not fair for me to say whats right or wrong for you guys But I got to the point where I was like, I cant have this goin on here and be wonderin if you guys are gonna wake up or not., SUSAN SILVER Not that the others werent heavily into drugs, too, but Layne was clearly so deepit was so dangerousthat all of our lives centered around how to aid him. All the pain and suffering when their lives could have been filled with so much love and happiness.

In October of 1996, his fianc Demri Parrott, died as a result of bacterial endocarditis, as she was also a heroin addict. Which didnt bother them though because they took it like one big joke. They were trying to treat her endocarditis for the last 2 years and she had a pace maker at 26 but the H had a serious hold on her, too. I do know someone who read Mike Starr biography thing he did and said he really had tickets on himselfhe couldnt express enough how much women loved him. : ( T Triplemoonsbreath 699 followers More information Demri Parrott, with, I believe, her brother, Devin Remme (also deceased). Why wouldnt she stay with Layne, or anyone, always running, to and fro, even before she got sick?

But Demri seemed to live an existance of from here to there, no where to run, but her mom had a home waiting just for her. She had three younger half-brothers from her mother's side, Devin Remme .

(I never knew about Demri until I discovered this site and got to know BarbaraI consider her a friend and thank her for putting this wonderful site together.). I just feel that sometimes Jerry does not get enough credit for the good things that he has done. It has nothing to do with you why they cant get clean. I wish you were still here with us. She was perfect just the way she was, Demri could pull of any look and this picture is a great example of her versatility as a model. Layne and Demri always thought I could help people get clean for some reason when I never did and Mike thought I could help by getting him on the show Intervention. She was so young, so beautiful the tragic muse, a fairy. I can understand that to a degree, but we were pals, and I wasnt gonna And did you ever see Mad Season play live?

She was then determined to help her then-boyfriend, Layne to get clean but she couldnt. That doesnt mean nobody cares that simply means people have priorities. I realize this stuff is old news for you guys, but for people who are just coming to this subject (who have a passion to know the truth) the information via comments on this site is vital. Theres an interview with AIC from 1999 on RockLine (Im sure you know it) where Layne calls in, and at the end of the interview he mentions that theres a girl he was friends with that had turned into a freak. I knew she was really Layne apparently adored her; he would never talk badly about her and apparently it was the same with her.

I am good today but I did have to leave Seattle and start a whole new life away from everyone I knew. He thought Demri could see him from heaven so it didnt want to upset her. I was and still am a huge fan of Laynes and AIC, and admired the beautiful Demri. She would be in there for months at a time following serious operations on her heart that left a foot long scar on her chest, and she had a pacemaker installed. Why did Layne rely so much on Demri? God bless you all. I didnt wish to get in an argument here I dont think its appropriate but I think it was just a misunderstanding. Darin was there but I wasnt because I was in the process of having my first baby and didnt even know about it until it was too late because I was out of the social loop at the time.. Instead, the Alice in Chains singer later began withdrawing from public spaces but was able to avail himself at the 1997 Grammy Awards and a few other appearances.
