Keep Us In Your Thoughts :trigger

Hello everyone,

Today around 10 AM CST I received a text from my 20 year old daughter. It said her boyfriend broke up with her and that she was going to end it all. She said, she took a bottle of pills. That she was bleeding out. She had a history of cutting.
We live in two different counties. I called 911 but had to ask to be routed to her county. You can only imagine how fast I was driving on the high way trying to get to her place. She lives alone.
When I arrived the police and ambulance was just pulling up. I have a key. She had taken a lot of pills and her arms were bleeding real bad. We are at a hospital now. The hospital has a psych floor but there full. They gave her a choice of other psych hospitals that her insurance covers. She was worried about her job. We talked about that. I’m going to have her email her manager a discrete email. She’s getting some test ran. We all know it might take all night before she gets a bed. Even with private insurance.

Oh, Cocosurviving! My heart goes out to you! And to your daughter. You will very much be in my thoughts for the very best outcomes possible in this terrible time.

Goodness! You have all been through a lot today!

Love and Prayers,
WC

Sorry to hear that, Coco. At least your daughter is in good hands now. I hope she gets a bed soon.

I’m so sorry Coco. Thank goodness she contacted you. You and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers. I hope she gets the best treatment possible with the best outcome possible.

I'm so sorry that she's so very ill. I hope she gets the care she needs soon

I’m so glad she told you. I’m sorry this happened! I hope she gets the treatment she needs sooner rather than later.

Oh hun my heart is breaking for you.

I’m so glad you got to her in time. She’s lucky to have you. It’s sad but at times we lose our ability to be rational when things happen in life that seem impossible to handle .

I hope they find a bed for her soon.

Remember to take care if you also

Oh, no. I am so sorry that this has happened in your family. Thank God she contacted you, and bless you for being there for her.

You are both in my caring thoughts. Please, Coco, keep us posted.

The doc on call has decided to admit my daughter to the medical floor. Because her blood pressure is low and her heart rate is still real high. They can not transport her to a psychiatric hospital when she is not medically stable. I just had to leave the hospital because my poor dog has been home in her crate since early this morning. I have to walk her and let her stretch her legs. Thank you so much for all the support. Me and my daughter were just planning on going to a NAMI support group together next month.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope your daughter gets the help she needs. Make sure you take care of yourself too. I'll keep you two in my thoughts.

Coco, I'm so sorry. This must be awful for you. I can't imagine a more helpless feeling than watching a much-loved child try to destroy herself. I'm praying for you both. Many ((((HUGS)))) for you.

Coco, I am really sorry that you are suffering with your daughter and her attempt.
she is crying out for help and I hope she will get this help as soon as she gets stable and transfer to a psych ward.
sending thoughts your way with your family now.

I’m so sorry, Coco. If I had seen this sooner I would have told you that the hospital could put her somewhere-they should be assigning someone to watch her 24/7 anyway. The psych staff can get on the elevator to see her.

I’ve been through this, but it was my mom

Coco, I'm glad your daughter has you. I hope that she gets good help and feels better and safer soon and that you are able to recover from what you experienced today. You'll both be in my prayers.

Coco, I hope your Daughter is going to be Ok? I hope your ok too?

I am so sorry you and your daughter are going through this! Big hugs for you both.

Hugs and prayers for you both

I'm so sorry!! Thank goodness she reached out to you. HUGS and prayers to you and your daughter

Thank goodness she contacted you. What a difficult thing to deal with. Hope she is able to transfer soon to a psychiatric hospital.

Don't forget to take care of you too. Sending good vibes to both of you.

((( HUGS))) and positive thoughts. She is lucky to have such a strong mama. Keep taking care of your baby, she will pull through. She reached out to you for a reason. It's the one good sign in all of this.

Lots of love to you and your daughter. I've been through something similar with my daughter. In the end it worked out and she's getting the help she needs. I do wish the same for you two.

The fact that she's worried about her job, it's a good sign. Terrible tragedy.
My heart goes out to you and your daughter.

Hello everyone,

Today I went to the hospital to visit my daughter. She is now medically clear. The hospital had a bed in their behavioral health area. They had security take us the the unit. Me and my youngest daughter waited outside. My daughter K called me asking why they would not let her leave. I told her it’s the law. She started screaming and yelling. I told K to calm down or their going to sedate you. The phone hung up. I was sitting right outside the unit doors. I could hear her screaming. Three security officers came down the hall and went through the doors. A few minutes later a staff member came out. He told me she was upset and did not want to stay. The staff person said we could not see K today. Then gave me a paper and said come back Tuesday for family therapy. Two hours later my daughter K called. She was processing everything that happened with her boyfriend. I told her she needed to focus on getting better. Then try to go to college.

My heart goes out to you and to your daughters.
let's hope this all becomes very helpful as fast as possible.

Thanks for the update.
Love and Prayers,
WC
