Hello Bostonandy. Welcome to the SoberRecovery site. This is where all recovering addicts, and people who love addicts come together, and give love and support to one another. I hope you find some peace and comfort here with all of us. God Bless your friend. I am glad that she decided to get the help she needs. GOD BLESS the both of you. If you want to write to your friend, I reccomend calling the place she is in, and asking what you can and cannot send in the mail. They open everything and check to make sure no drugs are going in to the facility. They want you to follow some guide lines for a reason.
