We're in a small town in Oregon, and know the judge is a hard ass towards DUII, but I don't know about MM. His wife was killed by a drunk driver years ago, so I've heard. I don't know who his PO will be yet, but I guess we will find out. He will be staying with a friend who lives 5 minutes from his work, when his suspension begins. The question for the judge I guess is what is more acceptable, use of MM for his pain, or the use of Oxicodone for his pain that does become addicting, and does require more and more for relief from pain.

He is being evaluated for early onset Alzheimer's Disease also. He's been having symptoms of short term memory loss, poor judgement (as seen by his duii) and repeating things, or asking the same questions over and over, and the agitation from too much stimulation. His mother, 2 uncles and his grandfather all had early onset Alzheimer's disease. Hubby will be 60 late this year. Yes, my life sucks, not to mention my own pain level from disease.
