No easy remedy for addiction.

Julie is an interesting case study. As she tries to recover from her addiction to alcohol. She’s in her 18th day without a drink.  Julie can’t be admitted to a full-fledged, long-term alcoholic rehabilitation program until she’s ready to handle it. Her mental acuity has been affected by alcohol consumption over a long time. But the situation is getting better every day. She’s now biding time in a nursing home. But will move into an elite and expensive alcoholic recovery program eventually. The prognosis is good. For entry into the rehab program later in April.  But even then, there’s no assurance of success. No easy remedy for alcohol addiction.--Jim Broede
