Ms. Fiorina often makes mention of a child she buried because of drug abuse.
Turns out the "child" was a step-daughter who was 35 and died from alcoholism and prescription drugs.
Fiorina talks about her daughter’s struggles with alcohol, prescription pills and bulimia that led to her death at age 35. It’s at the end of the prologue that Fiorina first unites the personal with the political: “Lori’s potential was never fulfilled but death is not the only thing that crushes potential. … What I also know is that Americans are failing to achieve their potential today.”
