you can call like if if you are in a mental health crisis you can call we called a hotline at first and then they directed us to barnabas and if it's a situation like ours

to where he's also been back and forth to Barnabas, they will come and put him in 72-hour hold.

So he didn't need power of attorney for that.

And I hope I'm explaining it exactly correct.

The cops would come and evaluate Brian with the social worker to determine if he needed to go to a mental health facility.

So, yeah, and then me having to make that call was extremely difficult.

so hard and heartbreaking because i would see him i would see him being taken and him asking why why do i have to go it's like one of the worst things you can ever imagine having to do to your family member so anyone who's been through that i completely understand also so while in the 72 hour hold it's hard to get long-term care because he would have to sign off for it and

he would have to be the one to say that he's wanting to have that care.

But he wasn't at the point that he wanted to make that decision.

He wanted to get out of there as fast as he could.

So we were just in this cycle of

him not wanting to be looked at longer and get the proper help that he needed.

Temporary.

Yes.

Another thing, Brian's best friend noticed that things like he had not talked to Brian in so long.

So he ended up messaging me to see what's going on with Brian.

So I had been in contact with him for a bit.

So

It just shows, too, people from his life previously also did reach out to see what's going on with him.

But that friend is somebody who Brian accused of touching him.
