[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 738944, member: 355"] Hopefully, most of you will figure out the profile change! So - here is the update (that many of you, including me figured would happen) but with a twist. THE GOOD - Breathing a sigh of relief - daughter is NOT pregnant. Had the "miscarriage" on Monday. Boyfriend took her to hospital. THE UTTERLY STUPID - Of course, she was in so much pain (miscarriage at 4 weeks gestation???) that the hospital gave her prescriptions for Dilaudid (hydromorphone) AND amitriptyline. Of course, as she tells the story, they had to give her the Dilaudid every hour while she was there. Welcome back to free drugs. I'm pretty sure she declined to tell hospital staff that she has addiction issues. I figure from her slurred speech that she was stoned when she left the hospital and now has prescriptions to carry on with. THE BAD - After leaving hospital (daughter admits to being rude & angry with hospital staff), both daughter & boyfriend start fighting. Boyfriend starts driving car erratically and eventually stops car in an intersection and bolts on foot. She chases him. Both eventually return to car and now have police to deal with. Both admit to being suicidal and police escort them back to hospital. They are sent on their way after being examined/interviewed by psychiatrist, who recommends counselling for both of them. Now they are back at a friend's place. Daughter says boyfriend needs to get out to the farm to work & earn some money. I asked why she wasn't going with him. I was told, "I can't....I am in so much pain that I can't even walk to the car." But wait a minute - she could chase after him in the street after he abandoned the car??? This drama will be good for a month or more of her "emotional and physical pain". It won't end well. The more things change...the more they stay the same. I refused to jump back on the merry-go-round this time. She wasn't happy with me but I was happy with me...and that's what counts!!! [/QUOTE]
