A warning to parents of teenagers

Posted by S. Howard on October 28, 2000, at 17:34:07

The night before last, my son's two best friends, Terry and Pat (not their real names), took a bottle of ativan prescribed for Terry's mother. They split the pills between them and went to a party, where they drank for several hours before getting a ride home. Sometime during the night, Pat died from aspiration(drowning in vomit). My son is wild with grief and Terry is even worse. I've never seen anything as heart-breaking as watching these two young men, who normally act so cool and tough and macho like 18-year-olds will do, holding each other and sobbing inconsolably.

If you have teenagers in the house, you might want to hide or lock up your drugs.
