Drugs sure fuck life up!

My little brother called me from Las Vegas on Sunday morning. He told me that he'd been wrong when he thought he could "quit" taking Meth anytime he wanted.

He said "I've done it before and quit with no problems. I don't know why it's different this time". He finally realized he needed help. He asked me if I'd take care of his little girl (almost 3 years old) if he checked himself into rehab. I agreed. I told him he definitely needed the help. He'd been using Meth for months.

The phone call ended when I told him I'd call a local rehab program here in Chico on Monday morning. He was crying, but relieved that he was finally going to get some help and that his little girl would be well cared for while he did so.

Sunday night (almost midnight) I get the call... The Las Vegas police department had picked him up and hauled him off to jail. I left immediately to go pick up his little girl. She's now here with me.

And to think the next day I would have had arrangements made for him to check into rehab.

Drugs sure are worth it, eh?
