'If only I had been treated by a lady doctor!' That cry by a dying friend gave

If you met Jane in the street you would never guess her problem. With her long blonde hair and black maxi-coat she looks like a thousand other girls-a credit to any family. She is in fact a heroin addict, who twice in the past year has been dangerously ill as a result of her addiction. This programme traces Jane's life from childhood in an attempt to discover what led this girl from a comfortable middle-class family to take to drugs. Jane's story is followed by a discussion on some of the medical, social, and psychological problems posed by addiction.
