The Fix: 'I remember looking at the patients and thinking I should probably be in that bed more than they need to be'

Woman's Hour

Available for over a year

Milly Chowles meets Georgia, whose addictions took hold at University. By the age of 25 she had pancreatitis due to her drinking and was having regular seizures. In a 'dry house' to recover she had a relationship and became pregnant, though she'd been told that the damage to her body meant she was infertile. Having a baby, she says, has saved her and given her a reason to stay sober.
