[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 766503, member: 19522"] Hi Copa, I am……coping. Rain was released from the hospital and is back with me. She still has issues breathing, had a nephrologist appointment yesterday, has nothing but the clothes on her back. She told me that she has been clean for a while now as she is physically unable to smoke meth, it makes her breathing issues worse. She has 25% kidney function, 45% heart function and has been diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). She has a mountain of medications. I am going to call the social worker I’ve been in contact with who has her documents and try to help with getting her ID renewed. Rain said she was working with someone and has applied for housing but there is a waitlist. What is truthful, I don’t know. She has absolutely no energy and sleeps most of the day. I have become a nurse and a maid. I get it, she is sick, but does need to move around to get the mucous out of her lungs. There are dishes every morning from her midnight kitchen forages, I’m sure it is novel to have access to food and water, shelter. Her demeanor is okay, but I sense that familiar air of entitlement that has me on edge. I am hoping to be able to speak with the social worker on her case to find out more about housing options. She has been attending doctor appointments before this recent health issue, and that is good. She has a pcp appointment next week, and her insurance allows for scheduled taxi rides, so I will encourage that. So, here I am part same old same old, part hopefully different? I couldn’t see her going back to the park in the condition she is in. I am hoping to find alternatives, like the medical shelter in town, because honestly her health issues are beyond my scope, and I have my own journey to battle. My older sister will give me an earful, she knows the history and was quite adamant that Rain should not come here. But, it is my life, not hers. It is different than before, Rains drug test at the hospital was clean, and she seems to want to get better. I have to be careful, because she will use the heck out of me if I am not. Sigh. Hopefully, there will be more help with available resources coupled with her health issues. I have to admit, it is hard having her here, but would have been harder having her back out there in the rain. Thank you for checking in. Love and hugs Weary and Wary Leaf [/QUOTE]
