I have a young adult child in recovery. Since 14. 5 years sober. This child is the exception...so far.

She's buried 8 people also in recovery - teens and early 20's - in the past 4 years. Suicides overdoses drunk driving and a murder victim.

If you pretty much died while nodding out, and were revived, wouldn't you want to be clearly informed of that fact?

People get sober after life threatening overdoses. It happens.

Obama care made rehab available to millions of people btw.
