Should I seek legal action ? my mother was given Narcan when it wasn't necessary!?

Who gave her the Narcan? You skip that part completely, just going from calling 911 to talking to the doctor about her possibly withdrawing. Did the medics give her Narcan? The doctor upon his initial evaluation? You said yourself that your mother was on a couple of heavy narcotics, and respiratory distress/depression is a sign of possibly overdosing. In that case, Narcan was absolutely warranted. Perhaps at first glance, that's what they thought your mother had done. Sounds to me like they were trying what they could to save her life, given the information they had.\n\nNo, I don't think you should seek legal action.

Obviously your mom cares about you greatly or she wouldn't be concerned and wouldn't be trying to get you help.  I had problems when I was younger and my parents just didn't really care.  So having parents that love you isn't something you should be upset about.  \n\nMaybe you should talk to her, tell her that you understand her concerns and you appreciate them.  Try to be mature about the situation, maybe suggest to her that you go see a doctor first and get his opinion on the situation before taking such drastic measures as rehab.  Maybe you do have a problem that you're not really aware of or maybe the doctor will just tell your mom that you're perfectly healthy and theres nothing to worry about.  \n\nIf your mom sees that you are being mature about it and willing to cooperate, even if it's just for her peace of mind, maybe she'll trust you more in the future and you can develop a stronger relationship with her.\n\n\nhttp://www.emoscene.com

Do I no how you feel!! Welcome to the Black sheep of the family club :0)\n\nMove out of the house. You are the strong hold of the family. This is how I rationalized my situation. Now that I have been out for quite a while I get phone calls for help from my family. What should I do, or this is what mom is doing how can I....\nAs far as not being able to release the same way they do to you what I did is find others outside of the family....Parents are supposed to be there for there kids but in todays world this is not always the case.\nGood luck it will not be long before you are out on your own...

well' we had a hearing for custody i was present the mother was not it went into record.   you can appeal the order.\n\nlegal aid in the state of wva is free or low cost they will help you i am sure the state has not kidnapped these kids the state does not take kids, unless danger or no one fit is able,  these circumstances should be explained to an attorney many will consult without a fee;  keep trying

yes court would be the only option most likely.  you could try talking to the mom, but most likely won't work. personally, I'm the mom and have the opposite.  good luck!

I assume you mean drugs?  Best thing to do is be honest and face the consequences.  Your mom probably will not "kick" you out of the house but she might insist you go to drug rehab.  Your mom loves you unconditionally but she will be very hurt, angry and disappointed.  I am sure she wanted better for you and expected better of you.  You let her down.  Expect her reaction and give her time to cool down.  She will then help you.\n\nIt is time to take responsibility for your actions, come clean and stay off drugs.  Good luck!

Oh my gosh! Did she asked to be PAID to take care of you growing up?! Get a life and take care of your mother! It isn't her fault she is disabled and I can't believe you would ask such a insensitive question! Take care of your mother....God forbid you get into a terrible accident and have to have someone take of you.....I am so ashamed of you.

I don't know what state you're in, but the hospital that treated your sister for self-inflicted injuries should be de-licensed for blatant incompetence.  Hospitals are required to report any injury that implies a crime (like bullet wounds) or self destructive behavior.  But to answer your question, a psychiatrist would know what options are available in your particular state.  In my state, you could go to the Probate Court, and with sufficient evidence get an incarceration order.  There would be a hearing within 5 days where your sister would be given the chance to show why she should not be subject to involuntary treatment, and for this you would need a lawyer.  But again, a psychiatrist or even a regular M.D. will be able to tell you what to do.  You should not have to handle this alone.  Hope this helps, and good luck!

wow... i guess try to tell her you have things under control. but it sounds like there is more to it if she is that worried about it. so either she knows every minute of your day or you are going to have more contact with the detectives. hard to tell you what you should do. sounds like  you have a major issue in your life going and then a complication to add to it. but good luck... i guess always remember... your day is always just seconds away from getting worse... so be happy with what you have. at least your mom loves you.... like i said... it could always be worse

Yes, I have had numerous family members addicted to these drugs.  They are prescription pain killers that are highly addictive.  My cousin was addicted to them for about 2 years, and they almost destroyed her life.  She finally addmited to having a problem and admitted herself into a rehab.  She was there for 6 weeks.  They put her through detox and weaned her off the drugs.  She had the same withdrawl symptoms of a heroin addict.  The doctors first prescribed them to her when she had problems with her back and she was in a lot of pain.  They seemed to help but only for a little while and she then needed more and more of the painkillers to work.  In the end she was taking about 15-20 a day.  I say that you and your family try to do an intervention on your brother.  It could mean his life.  Best wishes to you and I pray that your brother finds a solution to his problem.

If this is for real, you need to go to the authorities with any proof.  Hospitals can check for poisons if they believe there is a reason to do so.  At 95, she could just be suffering from rapidly declining health too.  Hard to tell but better to be safe than sorry in this case, I think.  Good luck!

I think you need to worry less about the legal ramifications and more about your father's health. I think someone better get to mom and ask her why she's playing around with her husband's life!

Until the case is solved it will not be closed.  You will not be able to get a copy of a file for an ongoing investigation.  There are chain of custody regulations for evidence that must be adhered to.  I am sorry about your mother.  Try to contact your local congressman or state legislator to try to light a fire under the investigation again.

I learned as a first aid responce that it is my will to help. People dont have to help unless they want to. Im so sorry this happened to your sister. It almost sounds like you blame the people around her for what happened to your sister. But... In fact she was the one taking the drug and did it to her self. \nIt might be against the law not to call 911. I would check that out better. I am so sorry this happened to your sister and hopefully all her freinds and family learn from the mistake she made. I hope none of then start on it ever. It is a very addicting drug and I am so so sorry your family has to deal with the pain.

Is alchol or drugs involved?  sounds like their might be.  If not she may have a medical problem that needs to be addressed.

to the last guy no she doesn't need writing skills she had a limit and had to fit everything in so she cut back letters. anyway not sure where you live that would be a big help. you can go outside of your county for an attorney. i would never buy anything off of the street. too late for that now though. obviously the antique riffle wasn't for illegal use and the bottles were obviously prescribed. a good attorney outside of the crooked circle should be able to get him off. as far as not being allowed food or a call. that's against his rights and is a possible law suit.
