    URGENT REQUEST

    Thankfully, Bill did get admitted to the hospital last night and is going through detox. He kept saying last night that no one in this whole world cared about him, so I think the best thing we can do for him, besides pray, is to call him and let him know we are there for him and care about him. PLEASE call him if you have his number or pm me for it. Does anyone know of a long term treatment facility to house and feed the poor and also to minister to him? I don't want him to detox and then go right back to drinking and he lives with an evil sister that hates him, so I'm trying to find a place for him to go when he gets released. Thanks for all your love and prayers! Love, Vicki

      Peace,

      I will call him. Where does he live and I will check facilities out?

        Lady, he lives in Philadelphia, PA. He has insurance and I found a beautiful place that is a long term christian based facility there, but they don't take insurance. He needs a place to live as well as a treatment center. Thank you so much for your help. Love, Vicki

          SOS, if Trucker is open to it, you might be able to call AA and get some help. I suspect they could put him in touch with rehab options, etc. Just a thought.

          Mean time, strength and hope in prayer to you Trucker.

            I don't know his circumstances but quite often family and friends will give up, or become hostile because of our drinking. Can be a difficult pill to swallow but knowing things will work themselves out, even if it's becoming independent of anyone who is being hurtful can be a motivation in recovery.

              Well, I grew up in PITTSBURGH!!!!!! There are many resources available -- I am not certain which side of town he currently resides but there are many many places that he can go.... I have not lived there in 5 years but Western Psychiatric Hospital (affiliated with UPMC) would have a list of resources.

                      THANK YOU SO MUCH, TINY! I will check it out. I talked with Bill this morning and he sounds so good, but they are going to release him in the morning after 3 days of detoxing. I am just worried about him going back to that house with that evil sister and drinking again. He wants to stay sober, but without internet, he has nothing to do but put up with his sister's destroying everything he owns, including stealing his mail and cutting the wires to his TV, computer, DVR and all his electronics. So please join me in praying we can find somewhere for him to live immediately! You all have been so awesome to help our dear friend. Thank you so much and God Bless You! Love, Vicki
