01-7-2008 - pills.. family members sadMy mood while writing this blog:
sad



So today has been more of my rough days. This morning I woke up to find my mother standing in my doorway and I asked her what she was doing and she replied just seeing if you were awake.. I could tell she was hiding something behind her back so I followed her to the bathroom and when she walked out I checked the cabinet and there sat my hubby's pain pills for his back problems (these pain pills werent out in the open they were in my hubbys dresser so yes she went in my room while I was sleeping). Yeah we havent had the best realationship ever but I really thought she was changing boy oh boy how I was WRONG!!!!!

Then about 4:30pm I get a call from my aunt here in the city telling me my grandmother was being taken to the hospital via ambulance b/c my mom called them (my grandmother lives in Missouri and we live here in Texas). My grandmother lives w/my aunt and she had been un-responsive since 11pm lastnight due to her taking 3 bottles of pillls. Then I get a call that they are care flighting my grandmother to a bigger hosptial b/c they are getting no response from her. My grandmother had fallen several times through the night and my aunt and cousin just put her back in bed.. omg. She is on life support and having some response meaning that she is now opening her eyes, squezzing my aunts hand and moving her head. The doctors said she still has a 50/50 chance of making it and she will be taken to mental ward when and if they get her fully recovered. I feel so bad right now b/c I am here and she is there but there seriously is nothing I can do for her. My mother, Aunt (grandmothers sister) and cousin are driving down there now its a 7 hour drive. I will call each hour to check on my grandmother! I have been praying all day for her.

I have really tried not to stress myself out about these situations today as its not good for me to be stressed and pregnnat!!

First of all I am sorry to hear about your grandmother. I will keep her in my prayers.

Secondly I manage a pain center in NC. I see alot of people like your mom everyday. It really sucks but the best thing may be to give her an ultimatum. Tell her that you love her and want her to get better but that you cannot allow her to use you and your family. SHe needs to either get to an addictionologist or you will report her to the police for stealing. I know it seems drastic but if you do not make a point now that this is unexceptable she will continue to do this kind of behavior.

Hello, I also wanted to tell you that I used to be addcited to pain pills, and there is nothing you can do to save your mother. Just keep the pills hidden, and pray for her. I ended up doing much worse things, and luckily got help and am now clean and pregnant. I thank God every day, and this baby has been a blessing and saved my life. However, when anyone is addicted, they are not themselves, and until they come to terms with the sitiation, they'll never change. It happens for some, but not for all. I"m sorry your stressing and I agree it's not good to stress, but I understand how hard it is too. Try and keep your head up girl, you'll make it through all this, I promise. Keep praying for them all....If you need to talk more, let me know...

i wanted to type and let you know that i have a family very much like yours. i have a brother with ms who is mad at the world. he is and alcholic is addicted to sleeping pills and was a meth attic before he got his new job. a cousin and a brother-in law who are addicted to pain pills. speaking from experience no matter how much you worry they won't get better untill they are ready. you need to do what is best for you and that baby and that is to not get to stressed because when you are stressed so is the baby. my advise to you is to pray for them and try to leave it in gods hands. you can't change them alone so just do what you can and keep you and that baby safe. if you need a shoulder or some advice i am here. keep in touch.
