Yesterday, I fell down while going up a San Francisco subway system escalator and got cut. Considerably. In three places :cry: .
I got taken to the ER. I'm okay now, but I don't know that I really got the care I was supposed to get :o . And the circumstances of my being discharged & the immediate aftermath weren't good.

Thinking of you,

there after that night's trip to the ER and I guess they threw out all my things there Once Again :cry: . I went today to the agency that had gotten me beds before, but now they're saying they don-t do beds :( .

Someone who is no longer posting would like to extend their concern for your welfare.

I have been trying to help, but without much success. The shelters are overloaded and many people are on the streets where he lives. In my state, hospitals can't discharge people to the streets, but they can where ASS-P is. The hospitals and social workers won't talk to me because I am not family, even when ASS-P requests they talk to me.

ASS-P, please call the Hot Team if you are outside again. I've been told they are the resource of last resort. You have the phone number from before, I think.
