He said he then dealt with the aftermath of drinking before Irena urged him to sit down and discuss the treatment plan ahead. Žvagulis will recount those experiences on Monday evening’s episode of the LNK lifestyle program “Nuo... Iki...”.

I handled it badly at first, really badly. For a day or two, I was alone with myself, and nobody came near me. I drank on the first day, then started feeling sorry for myself on the second. Then I dealt with the hangover, and Irena said: well, shall we sit down and talk about the treatment plan ahead?
