Unbelievable
 

I have allowed myself to be yanked all over the map this past weekend
Took my brother to his chemo and chatted with his doctor
Doctor asked my brother if he was drinking - my borhter said "I have one once in a while"
And I said "No Tim, since Monday you have at least 18 beers that I am AWARE of"

Long story short he agrees to detox and rehab and is admitted to the hospital

Yay, right?
Not in alcoholic idiocy land.
When the social worker did the asssesment ( I wasn't there) he lied and said he didn't have a drinking problem blah blah blah.

So now he is being discharged with nowhere to go and he sure as hell can't come back to our place.

In 4 days he wreaked such havoc and caused so much misery it was unreal

He is overmedicating on Diladiud and Morephine and DRINKING

The doc told him he was probably going to die of an accidental OD.

On Saturday I lost it and yelled at him and his response??

"You sound mad"

I am officially off the crazy train, I can't do this anymore

God I hope this makes sense
I am so depressed and so sorry that it ends this way

I can't think straight

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine how upset you must be. It is so frustrating to watch someone you love destroy themselves. Sending much love and hugs your way. xoxoxo

Thanks so much, I feel like a bomb has gone off and all I can hear is the silence afterwards...just sort of suspended in disbelief

I too am so sorry. I cannot even imagine. Can you call social worker and explain to her that part of addiction is lies and that he truly needs this help?

I would not let him in your house, you have to separate yourself from this a bit. You cannot save someone who does not want to be saved.

So so sorry!

Tight Hugs.
