A dad died after taking morphine tablets supplied to him by his neighbour to ease pain in his knee.
David Rose contacted friend Kelly Rowell asking if she had any painkillers after suffering three sleepless nights. After taking some of the tablets, the 48-year-old died.
As partially-sighted Rowell, 42, of Oxford Road, Stakeford, Ashington, Northumberland was sentenced at Newcastle Crown Court for supplying the morphine, it emerged she had been "eternally grateful" to Mr Rose after he saved her life in 2015.
