Before group, tweety bird got off the phone 
with her mom and dissolved in tears. She sat 
with us and just cried. 

I told her we could talk outside for a moment 
while Mel started group. 

Her mom told her she won't let tweety see her 
child or move back in. She doesn't have anywhere 
else to go. She wants to die. 

During Mel's group I did paperwork in the 
nurse's station. I popped in every 15 minutes to 
do obs. Through more tears, tweety bravely told 
her peers what her mom said. Out of ideas, she 
said she was angry and lost. 

Foghorn leghorn twitched his fingers, raised 
his hand. During smoke break he had announced he 
plans to donate his brain to science, so they 
can see a "schizophrenic brain with a brain 
injury that did a lot of meth." 

Now, during group, he said, "We should get a 
house. Together. Most of us don't have anywhere 
to go, or at least nowhere good." 

He twitched his fingers, "Each of us might not 
have much, but if we pooled our resources, I 
think we could do it."
