Cash Getting Treatment: Country music legend Johnny Cash says he has entered a Tennessee alcohol and drug center for treatment to guard against suffering a relapse. Cash entered the Cumberland Heights Alcohol and Drug Treatment Center for a two-week stay Nov. 19, the Nashville Banner reported. Lou Robin, Cash’s manager, said the singer began his treatment on the advice of his doctors. He is expected to be released Friday. Cash, 57, underwent double-bypass surgery last December. He said he received strong pain-killers during the stay and that his doctors advised him to enter the drug and alcohol treatment center afterward. Cash has battled addiction throughout his career. In 1984, he was treated at the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage. At that time, he said had taken amphetamines, barbiturates and pain-killers for years. Cash, a Country Music Hall of Fame member, has since campaigned against drug and alcohol abuse.
