My 19yr old son is currently in treatment in Tx. after a whirlwind of hospital stays (1 suicidal, 1 OD) and 3 very brief treatment center stays since July.
The place he's currently at is one he's been to before, and he always does well there. But it's extremely tight ship, it's not real life. He fails pretty quickly upon discharge. They have recommended he needs long term care. We agree, but can never afford it. They told us about a place in AZ and our insurance will pay some of it. They've already pre-authorized the first 60 days and feel pretty confident about getting an additional 60! So in the next couple of weeks my son will transfer to AZ. It sounds like a fabulous program, even featured on Oprah and Intervention. They have the mental health aspect my son so desperately needs as well as the addiction.
For the first time in a long time, I feel we have a good plan. I have a tingle of hope in my heart. Maybe this is it?
