A friend was in a serious car accident. Her friend, mother of three, was killed. The day after her birthday.
Another car ran the light and that driver had a DUI just a few months ago.
So another suspected DUI.
Very sad. My friend, who has young children, faces a three month recovery and rehab. I don't know if she will be well enough to attend the funeral.
Alcoholism is prevalent. It is the single most common reason for couples to seek pastoral therapy (per the ministers in my family). You would think with so many people dealing with alcoholic fallout that we would do better as a society.
But we don't.
This is now the third time a drunk has hit a friend. I've lost count of the people I've known who've had DUIs.
It seems like rehab is only effective for the victims.
