A thread #1 Years ago I was managing a rehab unit, my favorite nurse Didi (not real name) was so caring and good with patients till I noticed on her shift every prn drug was signed for. Every single Oxycontin and Percocet. We had a problem, started watching her every move.
One day she did not show up to work, I did something I never did before. My instincts felt something was really wrong. Went to her house, she did not answer door. Had apartment management let us in, found her semi-unconscious. Pills strewn everywhere. Called an ambulance.
She was in throes of an almost fatal overdose. Long story short she was so angry with us for trying to help get her into rehab. She already had HEB, HIV from a used needle that killed her brother. I left the US two months later she was dead.
I will never forget, one of the best nurses I ever worked with died of the demon that is addiction. We all watched big Pharma push these drugs that killed so many good people.
