A Tuesday Night Out With Friends From School At A Local College Bar Results In Irresponsible And Excessive Drinking And Alcohol Poisoning

When Lois was in high school, she had gained a reputation as an individual who studied much of the time and who rarely, if ever, "got down" and drank with her peers. She seemed nearly obsessed about "shining" academically so that she would be able to pursue a career that she not only enjoyed but one that also gave her some financial security.

After Lois completed high school, she applied to and was accepted into a highly rated program in math. Her logic behind this decision was that this area of study would be good training for law school and would not be similar to the majority of law school applicants who select political science as their undergraduate major.

Lois was the kind of person who worked in a rigorous manner to accomplish her goal and then would take a few days off when she could. As it turns out, nevertheless, a good number of the things she did between terms or during summer breaks did not involve drinking. It almost goes without saying that Lois was anything but a party-girl. Now that her finals for her second year in law school were over and thrilled with the fact that she had done a super job on her finals, nonetheless, she felt like celebrating.

So Lois and a few of her classmates went to a local pub where they had a few mixed drinks. As the evening progressed, Lois and her buddies continued to drink. As a matter of fact she was having such a splendid time that she didn't want the night to come to an end.

After drinking about an hour when Lois started to slur her speech, talk in a confused manner, and then fall unconscious, nevertheless, her friends without delay realized that they needed to call that they needed to call 911, the emergency services number, and ask for emergency assistance because they suspected that Lois was exhibiting alcohol poisoning symptoms.

Lois was very aware that she had dodged a bullet and almost died due to an alcohol overdose and, as a result, was pleased to be alive. At the same time, nevertheless, she was somewhat disheartened knowing that she had almost passed away the previous night. Her parents knew how hard she studied at school and how little she permitted herself to socialize with her buddies. Nonetheless, they also were aware that Lois needed to avoid careless drinking.

As a result, they suggested that in the future, whenever a drinking situation develops, that she always drink in moderation and responsibly. Lois was of the same opinion and gave her word to her friends and to her Mom and Dad that she would never again drink in an excessive manner. In her own words, "I never thought that I would become one of the alcohol poisoning statistics in the local newspaper. I now understand that irresponsible and hazardous drinking is not my style. I proclaim that this will never happen again."

Fortunately, Lois was not only "book smart" but she also possessed. That is, she quickly comprehended that she had made a mistake and made up her mind that she would not make the same error in judgment again. As a matter of fact, she now realized that she had involved herself in "binge drinking" and that even one instance of this form of abusive and excessive drinking can end in a fatality.
