Daymo's latest antics

Well monday arvo following a drunk uncles visit & lecture daymo's who was fragile following breakup with girlfriend decided that he would like to die on girlfriends front lawn again. So at about 10pm he took as much of his epilepsy meds as he could & the last of his happy pills. He texted me goodbye & i took the unusual step of not ringing the cops as it took 3 hours to find him last time. At midnight or so survival kicked in & he texted me to ring him. He was halfway to the next town, couldnt walk & was very incoherent. So I jumped in his car & went to find him, eventually spotted him got him in car & took him to hospital with a few stops for a chuck wasnt quick enough for one so i'm glad i took his car. Parked at the door of emergency dragged him in & said drug od, sat him in chair & went to park car more appropriately. Went back they had him somewhere to assess & i gave info on what i knew & begged yet again for them to section him (compulsory place in psych section). Anyway eventually they hooked him up to drip & took blood tests & i sat next to him for three hours watching him while they waited for tests & then psych to come in. He was about 6 times over his theraputic level of his epilepsy meds & they are toxic. So after i chatted to psych they admitted him & i went home for a sleep. His kidneys shut down as you do if someones not nice to you so he had to stay in hospital til his kidneys started & stayed working & he could walk. So whilst he didnt get put in psych ward he did find out how boring hospital is when your mum will only visit if shes knows youre not allowed out & you cant walk. He cant resume his meds til tuesday & has to see psychologist to try to deal with his issues. He is still a bit wobbly but his brain is on the planet he just has trouble remembering what day it is.
