Luke suffered a near-fatal car accident that left him partially paralyzed and addicted to Oxycontin, the very drug that helped save his life. Susan turned to the streets to obtain Suboxone, a legal but medically restricted opioid blocker, in an attempt to save her sons life. Remembering this, she writes, "The day I became my sons drug dealer, we both died, in a way."</p><p>This poignant and compelling memoir exposes the rampant prescribing of Oxycontin, upwards of 600mg daily in cases like Lukes, and the role overprescribing plays in the disease of Substance Use Disorder (SUD).
