Most addicts do face their addictions and many get sober and then relapse when things get too much. Addiction is an illness. Would you give recurring cancer sufferers that same option? Get treated and stay well or be put to sleep??

Well I have someone close dying of cancer at the moment they are in hospital and the family have been given the preparation for death pamphlet.
The old guy opposite was being kept alive but two days ago he was yelling that he had had enough so they withdrew oxygen and drugs gave home a large injection and he dyed a few hours later with his family at his side.
I have first hand experience of having an addict in my life, one who has to me to hell and back from the countless over doses to shoplifting to violence.
From ten days in icu in an induced coma with a 50/50 chance Given the best round the clock treatment anyone could ask for weeks on a ward getting stronger only to repay them by being in icu again and countless addmisions.
You can’t tell me anything new about addicts and addiction.
