Morning oldman. Hope you are having a good day.
My mother died of a drug over dose at 76 years old. She went to sleep and didn't wake up. She could get anything she wanted from her docs. Just like Alice's Restaurant!
Doctors killed my mother.....they gave her to much access and all she wanted was pain relief and a good nights sleep.
My sister in law went out of her mind just before Christmas.
She has never used "street" drugs or even smoked weed.
She had been seeing the same doctor for over 10yrs. and
he was prescribing her xanax. Each time she would tell him
that the pills weren't helping... he'd just up the dosage.
She took them as prescribed and just continued on without
telling anyone about how she was feeling and how her doc
wasn't really helping.
She had a psychotic break and became violent towards
her sons who were there visiting. She was raging and
her boys were freaked. Screaming obscenities and
trying to physically attack them. So not in her nature.
EMT's came and had to strap her to the gurney as
she also tried to physically attack them.
She might weigh 120 and is abt. 5'5".
She spent 14 days in the hosp. while they detoxed her.
Might be a law suit in this if she wants to pursue it?
I have spoken with others this has happened to.
I have also read personal stories on the subject also.
Sadly, these instances occur more often than we are aware of.
