Mum who drank three litres of vodka a day given just 24 hours to live by doctors

A mum-of-two who was drinking three litres of vodka a day was told she had just one day to live at the height of her addiction. Charlotte Durcan was teetotal three years before her addiction reached its peak.

The 30-year-old had spiralled out of control within 36 months and was in danger of losing her life due to the amount of alcohol she was consuming.

Her addiction resulted in her suffering from seizures and blackouts, and without vodka, her body would start shaking and sweating, reports Manchester Evening News.
