AB  - A  21-year-old  mother  and  her  4  children  are  being  seen  in  a  free  clinic  within  a  homeless  shelter  for  various  health  reasons  (Figure  246-1).  The  woman  is  currently  clean  and  sober,  but  has  a  long  history  of  cocaine  use  and  addiction  (Figure  246-2).  Her  children  span  the  ages  of  3  months  to  5  years.  She  was  recently  living  with  her  mother  after  the  birth  of  her  youngest  child,  but  was  kicked  out  of  her  mother's  home  when  she  went  out  to  use  cocaine  once  again.  The  patient  gave  written  consent  to  the  photograph,  and  when  she  was  shown  the  image  on  the  digital  camera,  she  noted  how  depressed  she  looked.  She  asked  for  us  to  tell  the  viewers  of  this  photograph  that  these  can  be  the  consequences  of  drug  abuse—being  depressed,  homeless,  and  a  single  mom.
