For What It's Worth...
I drink... period. So I won't get into a sanctimonious diatribe of one side or the other... I just won't.
But, I thought I'd share this with all...
I had a friend who died this weekend of internal bleeding. He wasn't feeling well Thursday & was take to the hospital. He was told he had serocis of the liver & was told what to do by the attending doctor. Among them was to stop drinking all together & to see an internal specialist Monday - the appointment was set up for him as an emergency case.
He went home and drank himself to sleep where he was found in a ball, passed out cold & a puddle of sweat. His brother took him back to the hospital where he passed away.
JP would not listen to anyone let alone listen to the advice of others. He lived his life hard and fast and couldn't care less. Always the life of the party, he was the first to see to it that all were having a good time... for they came first.
So for what it's worth... he was only 44.
