With a history of alcoholics in her family, it was no surprise when Kerrie turned to drinking as a young teen.

And with only negative influences surrounding her and more trauma and challenges than any one person should have to endure, Kerrie was popping pills daily at 11, an alcoholic at 15 and was prepared to end it all at 18.
