 My best friend is addicted to heroin: advice needed

We were romantically involved, but now she is just some one I would consider my best friend. It could very easily turn romantic again however.
So she started doing heroin around late february/early march. She was away at a thing she goes to every summer, and she overdosed on heroin mixed with alcohol. She was found in the bathroom and her skin was turning blue, and she was passed out on the floor. She's been doing drugs like crazy since about january. No heroin until a few months ago.
So now she is at in patient rehab, and I can't get in to visit her. The visiting hours at in patient are more strict than prison where she is right now. She will only be there about a month tops however.
So I heard from one person who got in to visit her that she said that she wants to turn it around, and that the drugs aren't worth the suffering that she is giving to everyone that loves her. She is a very kind person, and would never want to hurt anybody.
So my question is, how do I keep her turned around? I am going to stop doing all drugs for at least a while to show my support for her. I am going to be around her frequently, and I am going to positively reinforce her decision to be clean.
I just need some advice on how to keep her going in that direction. I know she doesn't need drugs, I knew her before she ever even wanted to smoke pot, and she was happy as could be.
I just love her to death, and if anything ever happened to her, everything I would do in the future for a long time would feel hollow. I could never stand this earth without that girl.
So any advice would be appreciated incredibly.

Well, seeing that you don't have super powers you can't do much--it's mainly up to her. Being that you love her, you CAN be there for her when she needs support, a little push or a talk. I think that's a pretty good idea with being clean as you will be a positive influence, especially if you're going to be around her once she's out. Hey, who knows, you could learn a thing or two about drugs yourself. 
All in all, it's her body\mind. If she can't do it herself, nobody is going to make her. Good luck.
