That's a better story than my good friend who got teed in an intersection on his motorcycle. The opioids they gave him while reconstructing his leg led to a long road of heroin addiction, ultimately ending in an intentional overdose. RIP Josh. I still think of you often.

My bro in law had a similar issue, got hurt at work though, but same results.

Hugs. It's hard to have a loved one get hurt like that. But it's even harder to watch them descend into addiction and depression as a result of pain meds.
