Yeah, after watching the whole thing, I agree her fam loves her alot. Especially the dad. I still think the older sister is kind of a snot, though. lol WOW, I got on an 'intervention' roll....after watching the brooke episode, I watched Ryan, Alison, Marie, and Kristen. Kristen's story really broke my heart. That poor girl! Oh, and I saw the one with Jerrie the norco addict. THAT one I can really relate to. I would so love to get off of these things....and yet, at the same time.....I would so hate to get off of them. Make any sense? Cuz it doesn't make any sense to me. :--(
No problem. The post intreque me and I had to watch it. Your right,I dont think she was that heavily medicate compared to what mg.doses I have read about here. What was ruining things were her extra doses. I mean dozing off and taking a taco bell burritto in the face and sleeping on the kitchen floor. I would start to question my own doses if my wife told me I did those things. I too am a chronic pain patient and am addicted. This is why this interested me so much. I too wonder how to manage my pain without the use opiates. But I know, this cant go on forever. I just have to learn also how to not abuse. This girl had such a loving family, she couldnt ask for a better support system.

Oooops---lol----when I first posted the above, I was only 15 minutes into the episode. After I posted that, I went back to youtube to continue watching and LOW AND BEHOLD....the camera crew arrived to brooke's house to begin shooting and found her passed out cold on the kitchen floor. Oooookay....maybe Brooke does need some help, after all. lol ( I know its not funny, I'm lol'ing at MY stupidity and MY first reaction to defend this girl I don't even know.) Wow. I really am pathetic, aren't I? Now I am rolling my eyes at myself! Okay...sorry to bother you all. Take care. :)
