Having lived a successful life in Bangkok that included friends, two teachi ng jobs, and her own apartment, Sandra Gregory recounts how her life took a terrible turn in 1993 and how she experienced a journey from prison to ren ewal. While recuperating from dysentery and dengue fever, Gregory ran out o f money. With mounting medical bills to pay, she met a heroin addict who of fered her $1,000 to smuggle his personal supply of heroin to Japan.
