How did Diana Ross deal with it, her addiction problem that was publicized in the early 2000's like 2001, 2002. I know she and Michael were close [[which is why he left his children to her in his will), but she went into rehab several times for painkiller abuse, alcohol. Were there other drugs? I am trying to determine if Michael was using some of the same things?
