I was a moderate drinker up until 7 years ago, when I found out that I had end stage liver disease, and needed a transplant. Not alcohol related. My immune system is overactive and was attacking my liver. The damage was irreversible. The day I found this out was the very day of Trump’s FIRST inauguration, of all days. I was in shock, and for a few weeks I had a hard time dealing with it emotionally.

I eventually received a new liver and am doing quite well, and Trump’s next inauguration will be much happier, on a personal level.

My point is everyone is different, due to genes and other factors.

I have a brother in law in his 60s who has drank like a fish and smoked like a chimney since he was a teenager and he still walks among us. His life is a shambles, he looks like hell and his voice is so raspy he’s hard to understand. BUT, in spite of his long-term drug use, smoking, and drinking he still walks among us. I don’t know how he isn’t dead.

We’re all different.

“. I don’t know how he isn’t dead.”

I wonder the same thing about Keith Richards.
