Luckily for your friend, heroin withdrawal will not kill you.
Ironically, the only withdrawal that has that possibility is alcohol, which is a legal drug. Go figure.
Good luck finding your girl a place to go, you might be best off calling your local narcotics anonymous chapter and asking for a place she can detox.

Don't want to derail the thread, but just for clarification, withdrawal from many barbiturates can also cause death.
Good luck with your friend

Watch out for the benzos too, I guess.
The best rule of thumb is to avoid at all costs ever having to withdraw from anything, whether nicotine, gambling, dope, food, or relationships.
Take a walk in the park or at the beach. It's nice.
