Description

What should have been two relaxing weeks on holiday in beautiful Cornwall turned into a three-week nightmare for Kevin and his wife Jan. Three Desperate Weeks examines the destructive and life-threatening effects of the relationship between alcohol and depression on an individual and those around him. It recounts a true story, leading up to, including, and following, a medical emergency in 2015 that almost cost Kevin his life. This is a nakedly honest account of a terrifying episode and surreal three weeks of recovery from the brink of death in hospitals in Cornwall and Devon. Indeed, these were weeks during which Kevin and his wife fought against the darkness of alcohol withdrawal, followed by the realisation that life would never be the same again.
