I am sure no words can help you get over with her untimely loss, may her soul rest in peace. But I must say it was very brave of you to come up and share thoughts with other parents, teenagers & everybody who is reading this blog. Together we can strive to bring some change & make our world a better place to live in! @ Martha: Thanks for sharing your thoughts and telling us about your beloved daughter.

They may fly home on an airline that is serving alcoholic drinks, in fact may even sit beside someone who is ordering them. When they get home they can't go into a service station, drug store or restaurant without seeing a huge display of wine and beer with large posters posted in the windows with sales of the product. If they watch television it will probably feature someone drinking alcohol. There is no place they can go to escape the temptation of taking another drink. My Daughter tried to overcome her addiction, she went into rehab facilities five times within the last year, unfortunately the temptations was to great and she passed away Saturday morning at 1:45, August 20, 2011 of liver failure. Please help stop the alcohol industry from pushing this deadly drug on our Children. Doctors seem to be more concerned about cigarette consumption than alcohol consumption because 80% of them also consume alcohol, yet they will not respect or treat an alcoholic as a human being, they will tell them to come back when they are sober. This happened to my Daughter, she would go to her Doctor with complaints but was told that as long as she drank there was nothing she would do for her!
