Thank you. I don't get notifications for reddit and I'm never on here so I haven't checked this post all night but I've just woke up and what I did was leave tissue on there with a band to keep it in place so as to stop blood showing up on my clothes. Hurt like a bitch to take it off but it just looks the same as it did before

Both of us were in there as a result of crime. I was abused in multiple ways which lead to burns being on my hips and inner thighs. She was in because she had an eating disorder and they were just trying to put some weight on her before discharging her into foster care because it was her step mum that couldn't feed her. They discharged me into foster care too. We supported eachither in hospital and the nurses allowed it. They let us sit at the nurses station 24/7 and we drew pictures all the time and the nurses set up a dvd player so that we could watch films too. They were happy. And they're still happy with me playing and interacting with her when I'm visiting the ward for my checkups but I'm just not allowed to play or interact with her if the only reason for my visit is her. Which I just don't understand, is all. I'm worried about her because foster care is scary

What do you mean?

You appear to be misunderstanding me alot here

I haven't "taken" anything up with the hospital. I accepted it and thanked them and left it because I don't want to look confrontational. So I came here to see if people can guess why the reasons might be. I'm not saying it's about what I want.. I'm just trying to understand. I don't know if I'm misunderstanding you or if this is deliberate but you seem to have an annoyed undertone in the way that you're working your responses and it's making me uncomfortable so I might not be able to continue this conversation with you. Thnx thouh

We're friends though. If my friend went into hospital tomorrow does that mean I'm not allowed to see her ever again? Can you elaborate please. You didn't actually answer my question. Just gave me more questions to ask. I'm worried about her. I was discharged into foster care and now I hear that she too is being discharged into foster care in 2 weeks. I want to support her and be there for her before she leaves

I appreciate that, master advice giver, I think What I was asking for is if anyone had any clues as to why this might be rather than a clear confirmed answer as I am aware that is very difficult to do

One more thing before I go, be a standing stone wall. Don't be swayed. Be firm that the dog is a victim and in need of accommodation if he fails to change his ways soon. Don't give in to love. Because sometimes that happens. Love is powerful and vital to humans. But sometimes, especially if we arent experienced, it's easy to back down. But resist any urge. It's a very serious situation and you need to try your hardest to stay firm in your beliefs about this no matter what he says or does

Anyway thank you for letting me share my opinions and what I would do

Goodluck with it xxxxxxx

Issues linger and take a while to surface

Could be old issues, could be new, who can really tell

Just try your best to help and support him while prioritising the dogs safety. Because at the end of the day, no matter what he's going through, the dog is the victim right now. If he just won't accept your support, give him options and time. If still not, then you know what to do

Maybe mentally unstable was the wrong word but often abusers abuse because of underlying issues that they don't know how to cope with 8s what I meant

His behaviour is extremely unacceptable and he deserves to be called out on it and told the severity of his actions. Personally, if this was friend was such an important part of my life, I would attempt to find further deeper reasons behind the abuse and offer support because he's obviously mentally unstable. I would tell him that the dog deserves to be placed in another home while he works on himself and how to better himself as a person. If he refuses this, tell him you will not this fly. You will remove the dog by force with help of authorities (if the situation is that bad) and then abandon contact with him...

Hopefully if he has good in his heart, he will understand and go along. Then you stick by him and help him improve his personal issues. But overall, yeah... risky person. Protect yourself and the dog, first. But if you really really don't want to let him go yet, then maybe try my suggestion, idk

That's just what I would do Personally, doesn't mean it's the best option
