[QUOTE="Payla, post: 578866, member: 15160"] difficult child took dog to shelter yesterday and went to a hospital with detox unit. He called my house last night and said they were turning him away after sitting in waiting area for 7 hours with an IV; no beds for uninsured. I didn't think they could do that but then I had a thought which may seem strange and it is something I have noticed before when he claied he was drug sick; He did nt seem to be in distress; could he be faking to just get the rest and the methadone ? Sounds so weird but he is very manipulative. He was calling me all day about what would he do when he got out; wanting us to pay for him to stay somewhere. he was not someone ready to surrender for help. I said tell them you are homeless and you can go to a shelter or halfway house. He was not happy and always wants things on his terms. A blizzard is coming and we took phone off hook. He has his car Ana a little money I gave him ( need to stop!!!!) for what I thought would be food and cigarettes in ER where you can wait for days without insurance. I felt soooo overwhelmed last night and almost desperate. I am trying so hard to keep detachment but it is not going too well. [/QUOTE]
