Pregnant addict daughter – help needed to find detox facility?
Question by ann025788: Pregnant addict daughter – help needed to find detox facility?
My 21 year old daughter is 7 weeks pregnant (1st child) and a herion addict. She has gone through detox several times in the past but never able to stay clean.
She wants to keep the baby but doesn’t know where to turn for help with her pregnancy in regards to the drug abuse (mainlining). Does anyone have suggestions? We live in IL, she has no job, insurance, etc.
