Question by kat: Can a person who was a cocaine addict drink alcohol occasionally after rehab?
My husband is getting out of a 6 month drug rehab program on Friday. I want to know if it is ok to allow him to drink alcohol or not. Alcohol was never a problem foe him, cocaine was his only addiction. I do not drink very often. I will maybe have 1 or 2 drinks every couple of months. I just wanted to know if I should ban all alcohol from our home? I just need some guidance on this one. Serious, helpful answers please.

Question by Wolf Myth: Look, I can copy and paste news stories too?
Los Angeles (CNN) — “Jersey Shore” star Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino confirmed Wednesday he is in a drug rehab program “to get control of a prescription medication problem I had due to exhaustion.”

A statement was posted on the reality-TV personality’s official website Wednesday, after denying online reports that he checked into rehab.

“Don’t believe everything you read or hear,” he tweeted Tuesday.

He used his Twitter account to distribute his new statement, which was titled “The Situation Wants to Set The Record Straight.”

“I have voluntarily taken steps to get control of a prescription medication problem I had due to exhaustion,” his statement said. “I have spent the past several weeks getting treatment for this problem and recuperating from my work and appearance schedule. I appreciate my fans support and love you guys.”

“Jersey Shore” ended its fifth season this month, but MTV has renewed the show for a sixth season.

Question by shane c: Can you complete a court ordered substance abuse rehab program from Hawaii in Florida?
In Hawaii first time DUI offenders must take a 14 hour substance abuse rehab program course. I am moving back to Florida two days after my hearing and was wondering if anyone new if it was possible to complete the program in Florida? If not I’ll have to fly back to Hawaii just to take this program. To me a “rehab” program can be done anywhere.

Answer by Bill H
It can be done, but transferring probation to Florida is expensive.
