Katie

With a University degree in science, Katie is an intelligent young woman with a dangerous addiction to opiates. Raised by her mother after her alcoholic father left home, Katie refused to live in poverty and sued both parents for child support at the age of 16. The scars never healed between her and her mother who fight every day. Now 24, Katie is addicted to injecting Dilaudid. To protect her habit, she has burned her bridges with almost everyone she knows. Her mother is all she has left and, without a successful intervention, even she is prepared to walk away.
