Good God, .30 is a rifle caliber, not a Blood Alcohol Content. Seriously, I was trying to read the headline of BAC as a make of firearm begfore I opened the thread.
Sometimes you don’t have to be a doctor to see the obvious.I have seen it happen many times. Men are not the only ones that can have a middle life crisis.
There's little doubt in my mind that this woman has a lot of experience with alcohol consumption. Perhaps she was a functioning alcoholic, but has had some recent personal tragedies that exacerbated her drinking. It's tragic: she's only 44, not at all unattractive and she has an eight-year old son - he's the one who's really suffering! Recovering from alcoholism and achieving sobriety is not easy, but nothing good is ever easy.
This incident - her being arrested for DUI because her son reported her to his school principal - is what one of my AA friends would call a "postcard from God". I pray that she gets the message and gets on the road to sobriety.
