Okay most folks know he left here last Friday supposedly headed to TN for a job. He didnt give Tony any clear itinerary of his plans or exactly where he was going or how he got this job or what the job was. That made me suspicious but I kept my mouth shut about it. It just raised the hair on the back of my neck for some reason. Something seemed wrong.
His plans included stopping outside of Charlotte NC at "a boy's house I know" and spending the night before he left out the next morning to go to TN. Both Tony and I assumed this guy was going with him to TN. Also Buck went to his doctor before he left that Friday morning - or supposedly did - and was supposed to have filled all his prescriptions before he left. Now Buck is not only on pain medications but he is also on some very high doses of blood pressure medications, cholesterol medications, Elavil, and a few others I cant think of but they werent medications you cant just go off of cold turkey. I am afraid he didnt fill the others except the pain medications.
I think I mentioned we didnt hear from him except for that Friday when we got a garbled call that Friday night with a phone call saying something about his headlights going out.
Tony got a phone call yesterday from his brother in law saying Buck was in the hospital yesterday in his old hometown, which is the town we got him from...also the town his girlfriend had gone back to. Buck is evidently in ICU hemorrhaging. Now we dont know where he is bleeding from but I have my guess. Supposedly the rumor is that he was robbed by someone and they stole all his medication and he couldnt take his medication but no one knows why he didnt end up in TN and why he is in Anderson. I can figure that one out. I dont think there was ever a job in TN and he was just going back to Anderson to get up with this old girlfriend and he figured he could call us at some point and tell us it didnt work out and come back here but now this has happened and he has been caught.
I know I am being mean but I told Tony since he has now landed back in Anderson he is back in the lap of his other family. He isnt our problem anymore. Tony can worry about him as is normal, Tony can feel badly but his brother fed us a line of bs. Tony says we dont know that. I just looked at him with that skeptical look that said it all. If he didnt lie to us he wouldnt have ended up in Anderson. Something is rotten in Denmark. Now Tony is asking me if it could be Buck took any of my pills. I told him I know he took them before this but he never believed me. I dont think I am missing any pills right now. If I am it would only be one or two. Tony wont even consider that Buck might have gone back on any illegal drugs with someone. Im not as sure. If he did something like cocaine along with not having his blood pressure medications, that could do it. He has very high blood pressure. So high he is on two pills for it. He has to carry his medications in a gallon zip lock bag. Honestly no one would want to steal his medications for anything but the pain medications.
I told Tony if he is going to make it through this, he will probably need either some sort of nursing care and maybe even nursing home care or rest home care if it is a brain bleed. He can get that up there. They have much better free health care than we have down here for him. He is better off up there. Im perfectly willing to do research from here but this time he doesnt need to come back here because we cannot take on a completely disabled person in our home. He has enough trouble taking care of me. I do think he knows this. He is going to feel guilty though about sending him off and this happening but oh well. Buck was the one who told everyone that he had these plans. He was also the one who never gave anyone any information about where he was going. I did ask too. Buck wouldnt answer me either.
