1). Take care and Thanks so very much again for keeping this site up and running. I didn’t get a album to hang on my wall which would have shown something for all the hard work. I want everybody to know this.". His body took a while to die, but his spirit lived on, as did Demri’s, after her passing. I just was smitten with Xana. I visit it often . I know its been mentioned she was to keep her distance from the band later on but I thought you might have some fun memories travelling together to see some AIC gigs from earlier in the picture? Same symptoms. Barbara thanks for putting your heart into this and also for educating people about drugs. I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand the man. Barbara thanks for putting your heart into this and also for educating people about drugs. Im a long time AIC fan and think Layne was the most underrated ARTIST of our time. 1. People around the world come here to share informations and curiosities and read stories about people you love so much. You’ve lived through so much loss and heartache, and you’re still there for the real fans, speaking the truth. I just wish that they both had survived, Layne marrying her, but it seems that she didn’t want to get married. Very seldom been wrong. I read it within days. Layne and Demri were certainly worth knowing and there is so little about them out there. REED HUTCHINSON (Feast guitarist) Before Layne was going out with Demri, I got to know her through 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 i’m very disappointed:( But anyway thank you very much for this site. It’s easy for people to judge and if they can stick with you during good and bad that’s a wonderful thing. My nickname growing up was AD so if it was shortened by her she would call herself little D. Don’t know unless she was doing a rap thing if she did that with others but do remember her correcting people who did say Dem, not Demri even to me. But as a fan who collects all kinds of memorabilia, it is nice to have. I just hope you are able to get well again and I hope whatever happens you are able to find peace with it. God bless her mother, cause mine would have let me die without hospital stays. Haha. I have no doubt in my mind about that. I know it’s a picture and not a video but… just thought I’d share in case it could add to Layne and Demri’s pics. ITS NOT A GLAMOROUS DRUG AND ITS NOT SOME MYSTERIOUS ROCK STAR SHIT. HK-47 - Unknown death (Canonized in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes) 6. I don’t know who wrote it but if it was Kathleen I would guess that she could not mention everyone and I bet a lot of important people were not mentioned…because only Demri really knew who mattered the most to her… just like you only know who is really important to you. I couldn’t afford all the hospital bills, but somehow, or someone, helped Demri. He told me that the first time he did it, he was exhausted and feeling like shit. Well I highly recommend it. You have too many things left to do. Who is the other girl with her on the couch? They refered to her separately as a groupie who lied and tried to have sex with them and they said NO so she slandered them. Read that on someone’s Pinterest. YigitYigit’s death is a tragic end to Season 2. I know it can be a struggle to help drug addicts. Haha! The fabric alone I spent thousands on which in the 80’s is a lot, considering everyone else in that ” scene ” was flat broke. Wild Demir made a sword for you and my sister. But like Demri i have a death sentence hanging over my head because my heart could fail at any time. That was her. I can only imagine what the music, art and fashion industries would be like today if they had both survived their addictions. Thank you Kat, I try to be friendly and just treat everyone like I would expect to be treated… so it’s always nice to hear. 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. I could go on for days with stories, but I won’t. He fights with an axe instead of a traditional sword. Hopefully be a soulful powerhouse like him. Take care!! *, I will pray for you and your family, God bless you Susan. 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. There’s just not that much out there about them and the beautiful souls they were. It’s been a doubt to me, because I’ve 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 98…but yeah, it might be possible…thanx again! —– There’s an interview with AIC from 1999 on RockLine (I’m sure you know it) where Layne calls in, and at the end of the interview he mentions that there’s a girl he was friends with that had turned into a freak. I am good today but I did have to leave Seattle and start a whole new life away from everyone I knew. So …. They were always fine with my vegetarian dishes but I wanted to get some nutrients in them and meat on their bones, which is pretty much all I could really do to help. I do not know how much truth there is in the message must have the attributes and say their name. I’m trying to post a comment and a link to a video, but all that appears when I try to publish it in this site is: your comment is awaitting moderation!! Addicts in your life should never be seen as selfish assholes.. most are actually just broken and sad and while they may come off as being selfish because they won’t get clean for you… most are  just not equipped to know HOW to get clean or are too scared to try. anyhow Sorry I really wasn’t trying to make this about me just stating that the daily struggle is so hard and it always helps to have those who have been there talk you through it. Haha! The blue hat was given to the EMP by me at Mike Starr’s service there. Aðalsteinn, Hi Xana! After she died, in ’96, it seemed like Layne went into a darker place. But I will say this: Jerry saw this coming. Yes, she was sick from herion, but so was Marilyn. I’m sure if I did I would snatch it up with excitement in my heart and then eventually growl under my breathe a little and put it back.. who knows though I might buy it. Barbera & Katherine~I am seeing this as I walk out the door, and will read more later, but I don’t know who told you someone else made the blue hat, I made ALL Andy’s hats. Dear Barbara, I wrote this on Darrin’s page, but I’m writing to you again on this one, though they are probably all one and the same. Layne was like no other. I dont update it much but sometimes I add to the pages more.. like I did this one recently. , Hi, Hope to read some more posts soon. I’m lucky to have 2 beautiful little girls that keep my life full. I was iv’ing heroin for 8 years when i suddenly came down with what i thought was the flu. Thanks for visiting the website and sharing the video but that video has been around for awhile and it is not Demri.. She could’ve been so much more, it’s a shame. I just come here to pay my respect to Demri passing anniversary…. Thank you so much for sharing your stories. My deepest sympathy to her family and you the friends. As a mother, I cannot imagine losing any of my kids. Rest in peace beautiful angels. It speaks volumes about this site that a guy sitting in his living room in Iceland in 2017, can read through it and feel as if he were a fly on the wall in all these parties and gatherings. Johnny was a Godsent to Layne. Sparing the details, I ended up having a stupid fight with her about Layne. Thanks Dave! Maybe some of Dem’s 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. You lose the internet Susan bc you obviously don’t 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. It was copied and posted to several different places. You were never just “Layne Staley’s girlfriend”… you were definitely an energy and a force all your own. *sigh*. They can seduce you and make you feel like nothing else can be as good to you. What a joyful presence she must have been, all the while carrying and apparently, practising some horrible habits. If people only knew how stuck in grief I was for YEARS and today I still miss them all but I dont break down crying anymore. Layne’s father could have been that positive influence, but he only helped drive Layne to an early grave. Ill try to sum this up as much as i can. ciao sorry for my english I hope to be understood, I wanted to participate more and share with many of you but as I said I do not know the English language, thank you barbara (admin) and his friend Darim you for sharing your stories . They both died alone, I know Demri’s mother and Aunt were with her, but in truth, everyone dies alone. Demir Parscan as Toktamış Bey- Blood brother and companion of Candar Bey. Addiction is no joke, I go to med school so I spend a lot of time in the hospital and it’s just awful what being addicted to something does to people. Hi Barbara, I was just checking in to see if there are any new posts an I noticed your comment about the books. If it is truth you have lost more than your Demi but a sibling with a “D” too. Was she running scared? , …..u can always download vuze then go into kickass torrents and type in any movies, books, sitcoms you want to watch and download it….voila it downloads onto vuze and you can watch it anytime offline from then on….free all free, Sounds good i can be your book reviewer give star ratings..!!! Makes me wonder about the beautiful pictures of Demri above, I’d love to know when they were taken. Take care, It’s nice to see this page and realize how much she was loved. Barbara, I found an interview of ALC at the backstage of Lolapalooza in 1993 and the good news is that Demri was caught by the camera . I love this site and thanks Barbara for all the work you put into it. For some reason I always thought it would be better to go out with an OD because then it wouldn’t be a surprise and maybe my family wouldn’t be as upset as they would with a suicide. Mike, Rosheen, Andrew Wood and now sadly.. the list grows.. Chris Cornell who was an amazing man, husband and Father and Friend. 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 am an addict and have been for years. This website is dedicated to Demri Parrott, Layne Staley, Mike Starr and Rosheen Raugi with love and for anyone who ever thinks they wanna try it just once for fun.. So beautifully said, I believe the same. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in Western countries. I was just being a bit of a creep and trying to piece together when he lived where and for how long. Seeing posts pertaining to Andrew Wood, Xana and Mike was very pleasant too. I know he did get an infection because of his very, very stupid way of not looking after things. When Layne didn’t feel like eating Johnny could get him to drink an Ensure sometimes 2 or 3. Then there was some stuff with his mother that I just can’t share here. I know none will be truly right until you and Darrin perhaps right one but for now could you guide me to what you feel is ok?? They had called me after being with me in Vegas in the spring of 93 when they got there and they wanted Layne to have the band there on Family Day to deal with Band Issues. my heart aches when I see these pics. I’m loving this website and to found out more about Layne and Demri and how unique they were makes me really happy| . Adalsteinn, thank you so much for your kind comment so many years ago Thank you for that ms. Susan. According to Ahmet Akgunduz and Said Ozturk in Ottoman History – Misperceptions and Truths, the Ottomans came from the Kayi tribe. Because it does and these beautiful people have created this place for dialogue. They are blessed to have had a great friend in you who will tell their story and stick up for them so fiercely too. Age has shown me that it´s probably good that I didn´t, as I´ve never had any sort of chemical dependancy nor drug habits, and been overall successful in my life. The site is great, the pictures are beautiful, and it so wonderful that we can remember them. Not the fake books that have, or will be coming out about them, by authors who have no real knowledge of them. Finally, best of luck if you write a book Muself, I would love to produce a film documenting all of this. Just how much sense does that make? And thank you for your website. Makes me scared to have children. They didnt want people to be too scared to call them. Again, another puzzle piece that helps to clarify who these wonderfully talented, beautiful, yet flawed human beings really were. I’m just happy more people came out and started to share pictures of her. Layne continued touring, they both continued the drugs. I have wanted the book for years, but could not see me spending $200+ for a paperback book. I know that he was at Jerry’s ’98 Halloween concert, and had thought about making an appearance there. In one of the all-time saddest deaths of the whole show, Aykiz dies in Turgut’s arms after much agony from being burned alive by Noyan and his soldiers. Makes total sense that D and L were soulmates. A google search for “Demri and Layne” brought me here at last. The sad parts of all of our lives are the MOST important cautionary tales on this website.. written for someone who needs to hear it or some kid or young adult who thinks they just wanna try heroin someday… Do not do it! We will met them (again) and all together we will party and laught up avobe someday. This is the kind of ridiculous talk he put up with from people who claimed to like him. I personally haven’t lost any friend such at young age, and the pain all of you guys who new Demri and were their family and friends are having, I think I will never imagine it. It was Layne and Demri and they had to find me to tell me they started doing dope and how wonderful it was, and right then I knew they We have a guest. Someone who took many drugs, uppers, downers,narcotics, yet she always tried to better herself, in acting, in life. Try whatever it takes and if you’re NOT an addict… then all you have to do… is never try it in the first place!!! I know her story is full of pain and mistakes, you never hid that from us, and maybe because of this some close friends and family don´t come in public to tell about her. A lot of creativity! . I noticed the list of books on the home page and decided to go check out Everybody Loves Our Town by Mark Yarm at our public library. She died of an accidental overdose, her mother will confirm this and its also written on her death certificate. I know he was taking care of Layne and buying groceries and making sure he was eating and cared for. I love you. Think about it like this… who could write a book about you? I too lost a sister. I know he blamed himself for Demri dying we all played the should a, could a, wouldda tape in our head. Every addict I’ve read about has said the same thing. I bumped into this web site and it was a very nice memorial for Layne and Demri. I don’t know where he went though, and even the people who he rented from thought he was still living there. Demri was five feet tall and tiny, and Xana was six feet tall and, like, Amazon. Jerry wanted to tour but Layne was sick and then in and out of rehab 13 times. But miraculously i stabilized and had open heart surgery to replace my valve..im so sorry this is so long but im not done yet. I believe it’s the second version. The distance between how young, beautiful and full of life Demri was in this pictures, and how much pain and suffering she must have suffered later in life, based on what you have shared, is so huge. AiC was playing a show that night at an old fire station in Redmond–do you remember that place? She had talked him into putting a lot of big purchases in her name. Also, you mentioned the pain she was in, & how her mother, Kathleen tried so much to help. How you doing Jacqueline? I went to the video and checked and I don’t think it’s Demri because: 1. A lot about Alice in Chains, Mad Season and Layne. Question: Did Demri ever drive a car? Him and his girlfriend Demri both lived with me at the time. Some are experimenting with stuff, which can just be a part of growing up. Jerry would make these stupid, hazily spiteful remarks like “we’re standing by Layne” and “I love him anyway.” Who wants to be loved “anyway?” And the thing was that Layne was really bouncing back at this time. 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 I’D NEVER DO… I EVENTUALLY ENDED UP DOING THINGS I COULD NEVER OF IMAGINED… ALWAYS JUST TRYING TO SURVIVE THAT FUCKING EVIL ADDICTION!! So go to youtube and search for this: I bring it up also because I know her family would prefer it be used that way. Being involved in the music scene, where there tends to be a lot of substance use? I believe Layne when he said before his passing that Demri visited him. The statistic for heroin addicts who get clean and stay clean are actually depressing and shocking. My sister also was an addict and passed away in 2008. Thank u to everyone who takes the time to read this ! 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. I am here to support if I can but a simple chat is as far as I’ll go. Big hugs! That’s where all the “gangrene” rumors started. RIP. I’m sure a lot of people would like to see a video of Demri. Not only am I a fan, but I have become intrigued by Laynes life due to having a 21 year old son, who in many ways, reminds me of Layne. Thank you for this wonderful website. I feel as though we can no longer talk about Layne on any AIC sites and that he is slowely being weened off of all of them…..so again & again, thanks, and love hearing your stories. The surgery went good..(tryin to hurry) after surgery i got on suboxone n was doing really good for 6 months. It must be so painful and so hard… but also them you receive these positive messages, of love towards you, towards Demri… and this must be also very grateful. Someone—I don’t want to say who—brought him some heroin because they couldn’t find any coke. Need to search harder for the better ones. The Iron Giant is a 1999 American animated science fiction action film produced by Warner Bros. Yumurcak lives in a village in the wild west. Thank you B! Hang in there sister it gets easier and it gets better. 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. Just stop! I have seen people/myself go from great people to completely changed. XANA LA FUENTE “Innocent yet provocative.” That’s how Andrew described Demri when he first saw her. What a cute smile! Demri counted on Layne & others to help, & they did. and this: watch?v=LL29f0AehNI I don’t know. I have changed it though to allow 3 and I have posted the videos for you.. all you have to do is post the link and it will automatically post the embedded video. I first heard nutshell about a year ago and had to find the source of that sound.It was here that I found AIC + the voice of Layne. YES, IT IS POSSIBLE to get and stay clean but you have to do it for yourself. The reason: hunters have been planting captive birds in fields to attract wild birds so they can be shot. 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. Yes, she died young, of mysterious circumstances, but she made a living for herself. Probably every home in America has it, so it would be easy to squire. Also I read somewhere that Layne wanted kids of his own is that true? He fretted and fretted. There are also the addicts who just seem to overdose all the time and I don’t know if their bodies are not built to handle it or what but there’s always “that girl” or “that guy” that no one wants to get high around or with because they know they might end up giving them CPR by the end of the night… and let me tell you when you have someone’s life in YOUR hands… that’s traumatizing. A little flower wild child girl who won’t be never ever forgotten and will be for ever and for always loved and missed. – Layla, Ummmm people still have lives to live sir…, No need to apologize…It just shows you care…I was just giving you another way to think of it but not like the person behind me answered…”saying others have lives to live etc”…that is selfish and narcissistic as you know what! Makes me wonder whether genius will always, without exceptions, come with an enormous cost. Until America recognizes the addict is sick have compassion try to help “not enable” stand up to the Government to look at Portugal & the actions they took “it worked” sadly it is scary how the future looks. Your site was the most helpful then, and continues to help those of us wanting to learn more about Layne & Dem. I also took the photo of Demri with the red white and blue tights on, I gave her the tights from my work Fantasy Unlimited, and we went to see our friend Pony and I think she and Pony dressed up then we took a few photos, this being one. How did her kids get so involved with drugs and addiction? Demri DID die of an overdose after not using for a short while,,,,She battled endocarditis for over 2 years which the doctors informed my family they were unable to kill (I’ve often wondered if it was MRSA before it had a name,) She had a heart valve repaired and another replaced and the pacemaker implanted age 26. And, as I mentioned, there are a lot of true facts in the story but I don’t know what to make out of it as a whole. I thought that taking drugs is an adventure, that it makes possible to survive such a thing as great artists who are an inspiration to us, but now I know it’s not an adventure, it is often the road of no return. I remember Johnny being the same way. Layne was always really quiet about it. We were all rocking the “grunge uniform” in those early days. What do I have to do? Click here for instructions on how to enable JavaScript in your browser. Love and support to you and your family, God bless to you! There are very few who are strong enough to keep up the fight for as long it will take to stop completely and for a  lifetime. If I didn’t have anything I just wanted to give up and not go to work I have no idea how I made it through it because I called in with the flu a lot. I wanted to also check in on you and see how you’re doing with your recovery and your heart? It’s hard to have someone understand that you didn’t get off the couch all day because you just couldn’t get up or because you want to rip the painful gaping hole out of your chest. One Day Ay A Time. Oh my… she was so beautiful, so beautiful. All text content on this website is copyrighted by ©, DARIN LAMBS GUEST POST – ONE OF LAYNE AND DEMRIS BEST FRIENDS AND MY EX-BOYFRIEND, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ot0g2SWqnK8, http://grungestorytellers.xanaland.com/2013/02/happy-birthday-demri-crew-guy-recalls.html, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlGZfqQzpvU, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQA98ZTJDTc. The day I met Demri she was wearing them, along with cut-off jeans, and a cardigan she’d had since gradeschool (apparently). He told me that he They ask his mom, Maureen for ransom money. Ok, thank you Liz! I found this online, in case some of you haven’s seen it before…. I also like to believe that there is an afterlife where we get to see our loved ones who have passed before us and we get to watch and protect the ones who are still here on earth. At the end of the season, Ertuğrul falls into an ambush set by the new Tekfur of Karacahisar, Ares . Now whether or not Layne ever knew just how much I liked him, I don’t know, but Demri knew. I know Mrs. Austin has lost more than Demri, may God Bless her, and Layne’s mom has a grandchild, or grandchildren, by now. It’s like being high on life and that’s what everyone should strive for because though life can be scary and ugly, it also can be beautiful depending on how you look at things. – A bit like the tutu story . Who would your Mom or Dad or best friend mention in your Obit? Hopefully, this still reaches you today. One story he told her mom the other her dad. Young, but very sexy. Opiate Addiction is selfish to the core. The girl is shorter, but not 4’11 short like Demri was. I get sick to my stomach when I read things about Demri that are her friends words but twisted around. Layne was tired of it and didn’t want to do it anymore, and Jerry became very devious in his words and his actions. I miss you, Demri. Yet, MM continued on til the day she died. I love you still, sweetheart, and I’m so sorry. Enabling is just as bad as abandoning. I know that you have a busy life, but I’ll 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. It wasn’t a blatant thing, but it was definitely implied a couple of times that they wanted to know how he was. were goners. I gotta say, if demri had lived, layne would be here to, No doubts, if she had gotten clean, there would have been hope, and this world would be a better place. I would stay with Layne and Demri sometimes, and I had laid on their floor kicking for a couple of days. :)), Thanks for this site and sharing so much about your friends. Don’t forget me though and please continue to be my angel; I know there’s enough of you to go around for everyone. I breed dogs, I work in tech support and I’m a web designer.. not in a MILLION years would anyone have guessed that about me. When Vasilius attempts to ambush the Selçuk Sultan, he fails and is killed by Ertuğrul. WTF are you talking about? I promised both I would never read it, but the excerps I have seen are ridiculous. The seduction of heroin is no joke and ANYONE can be it’s next victim. A lot of creativity! She went out one night with the new bf of hers and she had shot heroin before they left. Things were mellow, Layne was doing really well. Hi Amber, I was shocked to see how much you have shared about Layne and Demri’s life. From everything you say about Demri and what a force of personality she was, this drug seems to have had an unbreakable hold on her. A good portion of the stories accessible on the internet seem to take place around the release of Facelift, gathering info about the later years in much harder. Loosely based on Tokhtamysh , a leader of the Blue Horde . I listen to ‘Chloe Dancer’ and think of how I want my life to be as beautiful as that song. I think she, Nancy, and Mike Starr’s mom have been through hell. Personally, I have no idea exactly what happened, but I got a lot of stories. He hardly ever saw Jerry anymore, but Mike Inez was still kind of close with him. And then shortly after that, their whole sound changed ’cause they got introduced to the scene and Susan Silver. She was constantly on the run..not sure it was running scared but running for sure… maybe she was afraid of missing out or just looking for the next thing to stimulate her… I have no clue what it was but I definitely could NOT keep up with her and whenever I tried… or whoever tried… we all would end up just as sick, lost and confused and most of us would tap out. People don’t seem to understand how much Demri suffered the last 2-1/2 years of her life spent mostly in hospital several times on life support given hours to live or that she didn’t complain and was always more concerned about others than herself. I’m not jumping on this now just because our wonderful Layne is gone as much as because of the conjecture. They were less like brothers than like a weird married couple. And what does Jerry’s songwriting abilities have to do with him being an asshole? 04/05/93|04/05/02 I’ve really been inspired by a lot of Layne’s music, both AIC and Mad Season. I know thats super personal n i thought i remember Barbara saying she didn’t know specifics on what exactly happened. Demri didn’t die till the morning of the 29th, in her mother’s arms at the hospital. I do not believe and I do not disbelieve. The Blue Moon was kind of notorious, at least when I was a teenager, as the place to go buy drugs. You are brave and strong and you do all Demri’s fans a favor telling us about her and running this site. And Layne tried it, and he said that was the first time he really thanked God. Rest in Peace our sweet angels. It usually has nothing to do with how much they love YOU. I was a reference for him. Visas Marr - Unknown death (Canonized in Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes) It’s sad because most society can’t look past ones addiction to drugs although we all have some weakness or do something that would be frowned upon & even if one was perfect it’s still not right.
