Watched her work 60-70 hours per week during her 4 years of residency, 1 of those years with a Chemo-Therapy pump strapped to her body eating her life away.
Witnessed her recovery from a nearly fatal car accident (she was broad sided by a car running a red light) in 2006, that left her with trama to her neck and back.
After going through all of what I just descirbed and clinically being dead on the operating table after giving birth to triplets daughters...and having those daughters die days later...she has never wavered from her purpose/passion in life...to be a Nuerologist and to love her patients as she loves her family.
Watching a person go through these near life ending experiences you really get to experience and understand who a person really is....and she is NO drug addicted like what was sensationally protrayed by the police & media. Unless, you believe everything you read...then you and I have nothing further to discuss.
However, if you are educated, fair-minded and believe there can possibly be two sides to a story... then you will know her as I do....a smart, beautiful, loving and compassionate person. That always puts the needs of others before hers...sometime too much. She loves her patients as she does her family and those who are her patients can better tell you than I.
Has she made mistakes, yes...just like the rest of us. All I ask is for you and others to be patient on drawing conclusions about her. There is more that will come out over the next few days/weeks on this matter and you will have a better understanding.
...so YES I KNOW HER....ask yourself...how do you know her?..and is it possible to know the whole story from a single news event..

Thanks for sharing! Far too many are willing to judge before all the facts are known. I've read many comments that began with "IF" and that can pretty much keep this thread going on for a very long time.
Having to deal with such a personal matter in a public forum has got to be painful for your wife on both a personal and professional level. I'm sure its also been difficult for you and your family.
