Poor life choices

It's never fun to have a patient that is admitted for alcohol addiction and withdraw. It's worse when that patient is someone whom you used to be very good friends with in high school.

I haven't seen my friend or her family in years. It was a sad reunion when she was lying in bed very sick and delusional. She always had such high dreams for her life, and I thought she was out trying to accomplish them. It was hard to know that she was working only to buy alcohol and get drunk every night. Luckily her family decided it was time to put an end to the problem before things got too out of control. 22 is much too young to lose someone to poison.
