so basically one of my best friends was suddenly/abruptly/forcibly taken in the middle of the night the other night (4am) and two big guys dragged her out of her house and her girlfriends arms and shipped her off to some rehab treatment center in the west somewhere, and she is going to be there for the entire summer to potentially all year long.
and i am sad and furious that this has happened to her, mostly because her dad's attitude seems like for the most part, hes glad to have her gone. if i felt that he was actually concerned for her wellbeing, it may be one thing, or if he had spoken to her friends and done an intervention, it would be one thing, or if i felt like she were actually so far gone that she needed to be out there and that an in house treatment program in rochester/all other options had been worn out, it would be one thing, or if i had gotten to say goodbye or if that hadn't been so fucking traumatic, or if it weren't pretty much fucking up her education for her (and she's a smart, smart girl),.... etc.
the only thing i can hope is that her dad actually cared about where he sent her and that it is some place that will actually be good for her, and that he isn't just brushing her off like he seems to be doing, and that it won't fuck her up for life.
rachel roberts i miss you like hell and i love you kid. i wish that i could at least know where you are and what kind of program they are putting you through and i wish you could know that we're all here thinking about you and i wish we could send you letters or have ANY CONTACT AT ALL to let you know we've got you.
