Wife in Detox

After a long battle with alcohol addiction, my wife finally reached her "rock bottom" (i hope) and last thursday flew to miami to enter detox. From there she will attend an inpatient recovery program for 30 days. She calls twice a day from detox and the past few days she has seemed "out of it". Whatever medication they are giving her has caused her to act like she did when she was drinking (combative, short-tempered, slurred speech, forgetfullness, etc).

My question is, should I continue taking her phone calls or should I wait until she is fully sober from all medication b4 I talk to her again? I love her dearly and miss her a lot, but the past few phone calls have ended in arguments and, to be honest, have made me very angry with her.
