"A bed of rocks is not a bed."

The root causes of alcoholism and addiction are not for us to know. For this 29 year old, drinking was going to kill him - already at a young age he has multiple medical diagnoses related to alcohol. His home and bed was a blanket and stretch of rocks. The decision to stop drinking is an opportunity for change and renewal. But when the detox unit is full and the only bed is in a hospital emergency room until they put you out - - it's back to the rocks. With the help and trust of HHSI, a community partner, and an anonymous supporter, today, he is safe, warm and getting the help he needs.
