Hi MB. You'll find support here. I will tell you that I lost more sleep over my AD when she was homeless than when she was in prison. My AD has been to prison once and headed there again I think. The first time I think it saved her from herself because she'd gotten so thin and sick. While she was in prison, I was at least able to communicate with her via email and she was a sane and sober person unlike the crazy person she was prior to being incarcerated. I was also able to know she had food, shelter, and medical care while in prison. Unfortuanately, when she got out, she relapsed immmediately and narrowly survived an overdose. She will face prison again soon and tells me that she will make a better effort to stay clean when she gets out - although she hasn't done much about it while she awaits her court date. I hope that she does choose recovery when she gets out this second time-but that is up to her.
