Time and time again we hear tragic stories of those who lose their battle with the addiction and overdose. So it is so important to share stories of those who get help, get clean, and go on to live healthy fulfilled lives. And Jennifer Jenson has one of those stories. [rsnippet id="2" name="ArticleAd-300x250-3"] Jennifer's story doesn't start happy. Her addiction to drugs lead to her getting arrested and having to spend time on probation. When she was 8 months pregnant Jennifer broke her probation and found herself in court. Judge Chris Wilton heard her case. The judge could've thrown the book at her, but he saw something in her that gave him hope for her future.

This was just the push that Jennifer needed to get clean. She ended her heroin addiction and made so much progress during rehab that 2 years later, she was off probation.
