Re: [QUAD-L] Aids stealing your meds

[wheelchair]

Your aide has violated Federal Law Your aide has violated State Law Your aide has violated a Moral Code Your aide has violated a sacred trust with you Your aide has violated a moral code of their job.   You now have an civil responsibility to stop this by making contact with your local police department and file a report.  You are not the first to have this happen to you and your won't be the last. Your police detective will help you set up a sting to have that person busted.  The bust will set into motion some other things.  If this person is a registered aide working for an agency, the agency will be responsible for their actions and hiring policies.  Let's hope the employment agency will reimburse you for pills, medicine and anything else you have lost to someone who is "Hooked." Funny, but I have no mercy for these kinds of people.  They deserve any punishment they receive.  Press for charges.  Everyone will have more respect for you because you stood up for yourself, in face of the obvious odds.  If you don't... who will?

My aid has been stealing my pain meds for several months and I'm helpless to stop it. I bought a safe but one of my keys was lost or so I thought it was and my aid seems to think my pain isn't as important as her addiction. I'm so f>&*ing mad because I have a uti and you all know how seriously painful they are and my meds came up missing a week after I filled them again this month. I'm really upset because this girl has been with me since I moved home 5 years ago and is the best help I've had but I can't take it no more, I'm in agony right now but what upsets me the most is how helpless I feel. It just pisses me off that a person who supposedly cares for me can take advantage of me being disabled just to get off and not give a shit that I'm in so much freakin pain.   I just needed to vent to those who really care because you know how bad it hurts and I'm headin for a break down from feeling helpless.     Mark Jackson
