I hope your friend gets more information about what kind of disease alcoholism is. It's not cured by one bad scare from the police.

Good luck - I hope your friend gets help!
Yes it is the first time it has happend..

I saw Josh's mom today, while we were driving into a parking lot she was walking to her car. I didn't talk to her, but she didn't look beat up or anything..

Sounds to me like Josh's mom is bribeing (sp) him to come home, she disconnected his cell phone until he comes home, and she said when he does come home she'd buy him a RAZOR cell phone.
