Dear Lily,

I read the posting on 2/3 where you requested help with
addiction to IV painkillers. I hope you read this, I'm
just sorry I didn't read your posting sooner. There is
site called Nurses In Recovery, and they also have an
email community where all nurses can get help with their addictions. They also will answer any questions
you may have about legal problems (if you get caught,&
YOU WILL GET CAUGHT!) We all get caught sooner or later. I am sober for 12 years, I am an RN, and I belong to NIR. They have been a lifeline for me & have
seen me through some really bad times. Please contact
them Lily, using drugs will kill you, and believe me,
sobriety is better, and being a nurse is great again!
You are in my prayers.
