Sharon Stone, 65, claims medical staff pushed opioid OxyContin on her son SIX times
Sharon Stone appeared at the Art House Gala in honor of Nan Goldin on Wednesday.
The 65-year-old actress looked elegant in a copper-themed suit, combed her hair back and added a double-strand pearl necklace at the event, which was held at The Bowery in New York City.
Basic Instinct’s vet also took the stage where she shared a terrifying story about one of her sons, according to People.
She claimed that after her son was injured in a skiing accident, the powerful painkiller OxyContin was pushed on him while he was in hospital.
And the Casino actress – who looked amazing in a bikini last month – claimed she had to threaten the doctors to get them to back out. She didn’t want her son to use OxyContin – which is an opioid – because it is highly addictive.

She has sons Roan, 23, Laird, 18, and Quinn, 17.
The viewer did not name which son was involved in the accident.
Stone claimed how she was told time and time again by the medical staff that her son needed OxyContin.
“Every stop along the way for the next day and a half I had to have it re-mapped. “Could you please read it to me?” she said.
“In the day and a half it took him to get a bar and seven pins in his leg, I got six calls,” Stone claimed.
“From four nurses, from an anesthesiologist, from doctors, from people who had absolutely nothing to do with my son’s situation, who told me why my son needed OxyContin and no other medicine would do. No other medicine!’
Stone continued, “Anaphylaxis? It is not too bad! How bad is it really? He’s 17, when he turns 18 I really think he can make this decision for himself.
Until finally on the sixth call I said, “I’m going on CNN tomorrow and if I get another one of these calls, I’m going to say your hospital is a drug cartel,” she claimed.
“This isn’t because I or Nan disagree with painkillers. We do not. We don’t agree with paid drug dealers,” she added.

Nan Goldin is the founder of the advocacy group Prescription Addiction Intervention Now (PAIN).
During her speech she let the audience know how tough she can be thanks to her background.
“I was a model in New York in the late ’70s and ’80s. I spent a lot of time in Studio 54. Many of my friends are dead. Don’t f*** with me,” Stone said.
The Casino star added: “Don’t cross the line between health and healing and abuse. My brother went to Attica [Prison] – he crossed the line. Don’t cross the line with me.’
The story: Stone recounted how the medical staff told her over and over that her son needed OxyContin. “Every stop along the way for the next day and a half I had to have it re-mapped. “Could you please read it to me?” she said
Drug Problems: “In the day and a half it took him to get a rod and seven pins in his leg, I got six calls. From four nurses, from an anesthetist, from doctors, from people completely unrelated to my son’s situation, who told me why my son needed OxyContin,” she added. Seen with Nan
In 2021, she spoke to Variety about how her father raised her after experiencing loss.
“He came from wealth, from oil drilling, and when he was little, a huge accident happened. His father died three months later and all the money went to another family,” Stone recalled.
She continued, “He thought it was so wrong that his mother didn’t get half just because she was a woman.
“My father insisted that I have this feminist attitude. So much so that I never considered myself a feminist. These were the rules of my household.’
