We need more rehabilitation programs that keep a person longer than a week or a month to beat addiction.
Why is this important?
My brother just passed away over a 15 year battle at the age of 34 on September 5, 2015 because of addiction. I can't take it any more. I want to look into raising money or talking to the Mayor or state rep about opening a place like a rehabilitation center that can help these people. The rehabilitation centers out there are full--no beds available--and I'm sick of hearing that they'll only take you if you have insurance and keep you for only 7 days, maybe a month maximum. That's a disgrace. People are dying because of being turned away. I would love to work at a rehabilitation center and help these people in honor of my brother open one in the Bridgewater, MA area. I'll run it if I have to. I have a degree in the medical field.
