MDJunction to me

suebaby41"I was recently diagnosed with Recurrent Breast Cancer In The Chest
Wall. I would not be able to handle it as well as I am without the
help of my MDJunction friends. It just proves to me that there are
lots of good people in this world and I am happy to be involved with
MDJunction who seems to have most of them.

It seems like heroin dulls the emotions so much that when they come off it they get mean and aggressive...does that makes sense? Its like they go to the opposite extreme.

Awww patti, I'm so sorry you're having such a rough time. I wish there was something I could do... A frozen turkey leg would do the same thing as a baseball bat... Devil

Thanks for making me laugh. So last night I found a receipt for a ice cream scooper from the dollar store, so she must of got off early. Ice cream scoopers are better than spoon, when I found it I took it to my place to better look at it and then when i went back to her place she had the scooper out with cold ice cream as if it were just done, and said she just realized she needed an ice cream scooper so took a bus to go to a meeting as she got off work early, but the meeting was not there so she went to the dollar store. Upon further investigation when questioned what she ate the ice cream out of and a bowl that she must of washed and dried even though the sink was full of plates and glasses she admitted to falsely putting ice cream on it then this morning said yeah well maybe I was thinking of using, she had no money for cigs this morning, stumbled out of bed had to rush to get ready for work, had her wallet hidden under the bed, walked to my van at my place with me behind her when i went inside my place to get keys she headed back to her place i cut her off as I was trying to see her hiding spot in bushes, followed her when she went in the house but she may have already grabbed her stuff, came home looked in the bushes to see if she tossed it there the house feels like there is nothing inside so she A) grabbed something from the bushes Cool threw some thing away, C) got what she needed from inside the house. I had left her two small spoons from before but how she is down to all plastic, I guess when she woke to use in the middle of the night it was troubling for her. She keeps saying I can drug test her but why waste the money? I went on line and found tests that are 1.99 a piece so if i allow her to stay I will do that. But I am thinking that as soon as our tax refund comes in we will fork out the money for an Oxford house. I think her payday has come and gone, I can't find her last paycheck, Pam or anyone did I post on a date where I took her to pay bills? I will check my sent messages. I did not buy her cigs and she was running so late I did not give her a sub as unless she has time to take it in front of me, no deal. I was deeply upset and almost shaking when i found the scoop, but did not yell or let her play "switch a rooney" This morning she says I am the reason she wants to use and wanted to use yesterday, I said well now how can that be you called me the c word and I just told you no matter what you say or do i will always love you and fight for you to get clean. She is an utter mess right now, not stabilized and the ex's boyfriend Mom is making matters worse, if she send my daughter the debit card numbers from his account after my husband ask her kindly not to, she is gonna see a turkey fly all the way to Texas. Who knows maybe my superman powers can toss that far. She is so mean and nasty now. I won't be having orange sherbet or ice cream for a while, and may never use a scooper again. lol just a little.

Ah Patti she is so darn difficult right now, I guess the demons keep calling. I feel sad for her as she was clean for so long and she must be fighting it and not just for herself but for you too. I am sorry that you are still dealing with the s### but I must say my friend you are a super dooper (sorry that rhymed with scooper)detective, not much gets by you. I wish she could go to Welcome Home, not allowed contact with the outside world and could deal with her other issues as well. Love ya

I thought of this as well but I doubt there is a chance in hell as she does not want to lose her job, or cat or car.

Patti, I'm so sorry. I must say I didn't get what you were trying to say with the ice cream scoop right away...I have more learning to do obviously Sad Since my daughter lives so far away I don't know all the ins and outs of paraphanalia (sp?) but thanks for explaining it. Thank goodness you are stronger than me...

Stronger doubt it, but it may just be that people like you or God is carrying me. The ice cream scooper is used as a spoon and sit level when going to draw the drug up if not they usually have to bend the damn spoon. I went on line last night and learned of hiding spots as i cannot believe in this small house i am missing something. Will forward for others in the event they are still acting out like me that "I can prevent or control it"
