“My name is Mo, and I am an alcoholic and a drug addict” are words that I never thought I would need, or want, to string together. I am also a physician, a son, a brother, a friend, a dog-owner and an active participant in several communities. I have an amazing family, wonderful friends, a passport with extra pages full of stamps and degrees from top universities. Despite this, I found myself homeless, destitute and with very little will to live.
