[QUOTE="Sunlight, post: 92599, member: 97"] once I spent a whole weekend getting ant into rehab. he was under 21 but still on my insurance-probably about age 18. he had overdosed on heroin on a friday night and called me from a payphone. I drove there, a good piece away with the promise from him that he would go right to the ER. I took him to the ER and they spent hours evaluating and doing paperwork before they told me they could not help him at that hospital. by that time it was sat morning. then I drove him 45 mins to the other hospital and spent 4 or 5 hours doing paperwork, having a case worker call and work with the insurance details and having him monitored. by the time he got into the inpatient rehab and was settled, I left, went home exhausted and fell into bed. an hour later he walked out of the rehab and went to a pay phone begging to be picked up. it was the middle of the night by this time. I got him with the promise that he would go to outpatient rehab the next day instead. so the next day he did. he met a guy there who was in the outpatient program and they left together to do drugs while I was in the required parent mtg in the next room. yes, it is very hard. your poor sister.
