Basically, Mrs. Dubose fought her addiction by toughing it
out. She just overcame her problem by sheer will
power.
One thing that helped her was having Jem and Scout
come and read to her. I think that this helped her by giving her something else to
think about other than her problems. She spent some time correcting Jem as he read.
But much of the time she was just there and did not really seem to be all that "with
it."
I think it was really just her own toughness that did
it with a little help from the kids because they distracted her.
