I am certain my son (22 yrs.old needs to be in a hospital for withdrawls of strong pain meds, of course, the jail will let him rot.
As his mother, how can my voice be heard?
Thankyou

Check with the warden of the jail, but usually the inmate has to request a doctors visit and usually they see the patient the next day. Your son may not want to see the doc because they do have a fee, and another thing some docs act like you are a pain in the butt if you keep asking for medical treatment while inside. If this doesn't help, talk to an attorney and see if he/she can help. Good Luck and just let your son know you care

Unfortunetly i dont believe that any jail will send out to the hospital because they have a nurse and doctor of their own.withdrawl is very tough to go thru but he wont rot I assure you.
