As per this thread, my oldest daughter is, of her own volition, in a drug and alcohol rehab. The rules there are pretty strict, and she has very little contact with the outside world. She’s allowed to call us (her parents, I mean), once a week, for ten minutes. We’re allowed to call her once a week, for ten minutes. Other than that, all contact with the outside of the world is cards and letters.
Most of her friends from before she went in are not really her friends, just folks she used with. But the kids in the rehab love getting mail.
So, who wants to send her a card or note? If you do, drop me an email, and I’ll send you the mailing info.
A word of warning, because of the nature of the facility, it would be unwise to use the words “Dope” or “Doper” (I’m sure you could have figured that out, though), so you can just say you’re a friend of mine from the SDMB, which she is quite familiar with.
It’s an eight-week program, and she’s been in for just under a week, so there’s plenty of time left.
Oh, and if I can ask one more favor? When you send me an email, could you post to this thread? I’ve gotten several emails, but if no one posts to the thread, it will sink like a stone!
That’s very kind of you to offer a token gift of some type, but she’s very restricted as to what she’s allowed to have in there (she can hang stuff on her walls, so an inspirational picture/card, maybe); but what I think she needs most right now is a show of support.
I’ll play, but I’ll wait a few weeks when the initial rush wears off. I’ve got some beautiful art cards that I never get to use, so she’ll get a purty picture to balance my illegible handwriting!
