Death Doesn’t Take a Holiday —Dec. 29, 2017 – Joe Thompson’s struggle with opioids started in 2004. After he was in a serious car accident, Thompson says her husband was likely overprescribed medication to treat the pain. He started going from doctor to doctor, a practice called doctor shopping, to get new prescriptions or refills. At his job as a package handler for UPS, he started swiping prescription drugs being shipped through the mail … Joe tried to get help. He enrolled in an outpatient facility. Several times, he got sober, sometimes for several years at a time. He even went back to school and got his nursing degree. But then he would relapse again. |
