She makes up stuff! She used to be a nurse and they pulled her license because she showed up intoxicated to her job. She agreed to rehab but she did not go. The record is available online. They DID test her urine. Yet, she made up some story saying that her urine was never tested! She can not tell the difference between what really happened and what she imagines!
