addiction, deathA friend’s brother got all his front teeth knocked out in a car accident. He was in excruciating pain but insurance wouldn’t cover it because it was “cosmetic”. By the time he got it done he’d been living with that pain for quite a while and they gave him opioid pain killers for his recovery. He hadn’t done anything heavier than weed but addiction ran in his family and he was dead within two years from heroin. For him it was a mix of factors, but the medical stuff was the inciting incident.
