Fucking idiots…

So one of the conditions of my mother’s release was that Douglas County Mental Health would provide my mother with her psych medications, as that is the whole reason for this mess.

They have now informed her that they will not be providing her with her medication because she has insurance…even though they’re required to by law (part of the fun discharge paperwork). Also, there is no other place for mum to get her medication locally that will take her insurance and we already have way too many bills to pay out of pocket.

So essentially…we’re back where we started, and now I have to keep a constant eye on mum to keep her from doing something stupid.

Mum’s contacting the reporter that first reported the tazer incident (gotta love newspapers…bastards), and hopefully her side of the story might stir the county into doing something to keep the egg off their face.

So what? They want her on medicare or something so that she'd qualify? You should actually see if you can sue the city. I bet this happens a lot with psych patients...

She IS on medicare, that's the problem. They apparently won't take ANY insurence which makes no sense.

O.o now that's just stupid. Find a good lawyer and sue.

We're discussing it. She's wavering, but I'm all for it, then we can get her help...and buy manga (kidding, kidding!)
