2/ Kevin wanted me to know he had no family history of addiction and he didn’t use habitually until he was 29. His addiction caught him by surprise. He says “I never ever thought I’d end up like this.” — PolitiTweet.org

I was at Hartford Hospital today and spent some time with a young man named Kevin. He has been using heroin and fentanyl for 6 years and he just had open heart surgery for myocarditis, a condition caused by his drug use. 1/ My interaction w him rattled me and I want to share it. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ He has tried to stop. He has tried inpatient treatment. He has tried outpatient. He has tried sober houses. Nothing has worked. But now his heart has stopped working, and if he doesn’t stop using now, even with the surgery, he will likely die. He knows this. — PolitiTweet.org
