Actress Amanda Peterson died of a drug overdose in Greeley on July 5th.  She was a troubled woman who struggled with not only drug addiction, but also with what seems to have driven her to drugs. Her family was on the TV show ‘The Doctors’ recently, where they discussed Amanda and her troubles.

Amanda Peterson’s family probably didn’t WANT to go on ‘The Doctors’ to talk about Amanda’s drug addiction. It seems more likely, that they did want to go on the show to discuss Amanda’s traumatic experience, which seems to have led to her addiction.  The episode was entitled ‘The Truth Behind Amanda Peterson’s Death.’

You have to give the family credit. It takes a lot to go on television and discuss these things about a family member who’s passed away.

Hopefully, other troubled families can take something away from their interview, and help prevent another sad tragedy.
