I was impressed by Andrew’s immediate
and committed response to our demand that he take charge of the Oxycontin problem.
Several weeks after he started the program at Penn, I asked him how he had managed to go cold
turkey.
I assumed that after we discovered and stopped the cash
withdrawals from our account, until he was established on the Suboxone.that he
had been without oxycontin.
Andrew said, “Mom, you cannot really go cold
turkey. I had some (OxyContin) left and I dosed it out slowly over the days until
I started treatment”.
I asked him if he missed taking the OxyContin. He said,
“Of course. It produces a wonderful feeling, some of the best days of my life”.
