20. After she got passed out drunk, not knowing it was from drinking, my husband took her to the doctor

for a full physical. We told her it was not an option because we were very concerned about her health. We did not mention anything about alcohol or drinking.

I don't know the name of her birth control but I think it's a shot or something that lasts for several months (not Depo Provera) so I was wondering about that.

Her 23 y/o sister always puts us down on her HEPA (?) form or so she says. She will not put us down so that does make me mad about paying for her health insurance.
