Addiction Recovery

Timmy Solomon, a guide through the Rehab Riviera, dies of overdose at 31

Makes ya wanna holler –

Sep. 26, 2020 – “You are out of your mind with worry,” she had said in a phone call from her home in Boston. “And you don’t know where it ends. Well, you do. It ends with death.”

Patty Solomon is a special education teacher and was at school when she got the news. A doctor was on the phone telling her all the things that he had done to save her son.

She had been here before, on the phone with hospitals aiding her son, and in her mind he had been saved and she was already plotting the next step: Getting him out of the hospital and back in rehab.

And then she heard the doctor say: We did everything we could. But it didn’t work.

“I’m devastated,” she said.
