Jessica Dueñas was leading a double life. Named Kentucky's teacher of the year in 2019, she had also developed a heavy drinking problem.
"The day that I won my award, I was in withdrawals," she said. "I could not wait to go home so that I could drink."
Doctors told Dueñas, now 37, she had developed alcoholic liver disease. She needed to stop drinking or she could die.
