Phil Lahey, the host of the cable access show “The Empty Chair” came on the radio program this week to talk about addiction, the very real pain caused when a family member suffers from this disease, his own experience with his daughter who became addicted to narcotics, and the support available to both addicts and family members. Phil has a real world perspective on this problem, and his show is a must see. It is produced right here at the studios of Methuen Community T.V., and is available on You Tube.The show has a facebook page , and Phil is available to talk to folks who might be able to benefit from his experience. The show features his daughter Colleen, and is a great personal story of success in the long fight against addiction. My thanks to Phil Lahey for taking the time to come on the show.
