Prayers, and good thoughts needed

[keeta]

Hi all,
I am not one to ask for this kind of help, but right now I am feeling VERY helpless, and not sure what to do.
Two days ago, in the middle of the night I got a phone call from a friend of my brothers that they had just returned from the hospital. He was suicidal, and hopeless, and because he had been drinking they had no bed for him???????????

THAT MAKES NO SENSE to me.

After two days of pure emotional hell, this morning he was admitted to a recovery center. He has a bed for 30 days. He can leave freely if he chooses. He is not allowed any contact during his stay.

I hope to GOD he has the strength to do this.
I don't want to bury my brother.

Please send out any prayers or positive thoughts that he will find the strength to take this first step in saving his life.

I am a mess....:upset:
This just has to work.

Thinking of you both. Fingers & everything crossed that he stays the whole 30 days and comes out feeling better & much more positive.

Try to look after yourself right now, there is absolutely nothing you can do except keep thinking positive thoughts for him.

keeta,

I went through the same with my younger brother. He had a 21 day stay, though. He made it through and has now had over 4 years AF and NF (narcotics).

He wanted to leave after the first 3 days. It's quite a shock to the system, I guess. I called and visited him as much as possible. Wrote letters and encouraged him to stay.

My thoughts are so with you right now I can't even begin to put them in writing. PM me anytime if you need to. It's a rough road.

I am so sorry you are going through this right now. Hopelessness and despair is an awful place to be. You are in my thoughts and prayers as well as your brother. Put him in God's hands and try not to let it sap what little strength you have left. Just pray for him without cease. I had to do this with my oldest son who is a crack addict and still on the streets after many years. It is the hardest thing we can ever do, but we must remember that our shoulders are not large enough to carry the burden alone.

I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts daily! I am feel your anguish and pain! I pray for healing and sobriety for your brother and for continued strength for you!

Blessings,
