More chaos. My sister just called from the rehab centre to say she thinks she's being kicked out. This, allegedly, is because she is still on a controlled dose of oxycontin (which is being administered by staff in the home). Because the night staff are recovering addicts too this is causing problems as every time they have to administer medications they face temptation to use, themselves. The plan was supposed to be to wean my sister off this drug because it was too dangerous to stop cold turkey. Anyway, she says she's going to try and find somewhere else to go. I told her good luck.

I don't know if any of this is true. Never any way to know at the time... but things usually come to light in time. I guess we'll see. Meanwhile I'm burying my head in the sand. We're off to the video store to rent a happy happy kids' movie.
