She said she would go to the hospital later on and justified it that way, but if she calls me, I will tell her to call an ambulance.
There ya go, Baloo. Do just that.

Now that you gave her $20, you gotta know she will be back like a moth to a flame. It's up to you to decide how to avoid that, but my thoughts are you will need to not take her calls at all. Unfortunately, that $20 just bought you a front row seat to her drama.

You are not responsible for her life...or death. You, me, none of us are that powerful that we can control who lives and who dies of addiction. You gave her fair chance to save herself. You cannot do more than that.

I'm glad you shared here, it's a rough road we travel and better when we walk together here.

Hugs
