Mama and Meth........ Apr 24, 2008 1:16 pm
Mood: amused, 1625 Views
As some of you know I have 4 adult sons, each in various stges of recovery from the addiction of illegal drugs and alcohol.

Many of you folks have remembered my sons in your prayers over this and even though God doesn't jump at the snap of our fingers, when he starts moving, he makes no mistakes. It's a miracle in the happening. They all are turning around, Praise God!!!

When I asked to be put under Hospice care, I didn't realize how drastic things would change. The reason I didn't post was my mind was so foggey I couldn't even get out of bed. Those I talked to on the phone and off, said my language was severely slurred.

Hospice has changed all my medication around. I'm just taking a few. One is Methadone.

Now if you don't think that didn't cause a ruckes among the sons, you'd be fooling yourself.

Here they are, after years of substance abuse, going through AA and therapy and also legal forms of drugs to overcome their dependency, then as life would have it, "Meth" is the drug of choice for Mom.

I'm told by the nurses that small doses of it are used to control pain and in the process, raise my energy level and feelings of joy.

This sounds too good to be true of course. It's provided free through Hospice.

So I decide to nervously try half a dose. I begin to feel calmed. My coughing fits diminish and bless goodness, when I wake up the next morning I'm ready to play and sing, almost like in the Disney film "Snow white".

I didn't realize how much life the regular medications was draining from me.

This world of medicine is not all pure and innocent and given out of good intent. Corruption is leading the way.

My son went to Walgreen's to fill a pain medication and he was at the drivethru window and a very large Asian pharmasist pushed people aside to angrily tell my son he had to fill the prescription and he had to take his money, but combined with another med I was taking it could kill me.

Simple, natural, with the sunny brightness from the Holy Spirit within are the best therapies. We must all understand in a gentle way we are not meant to live forever. There will be a transformation and that it is designed to be good and not one to be afraid of. Love, Pollyanna
