Blake,
I'm really sorry you got burned so badly. I know you must have/had a lot of pain. My cousin burned her legs working at a burger joint, cleaning the fryers when the oil burst out of the pail and on her legs. It was like her first job too.

Ya know, your grandpa was just trying to do something nice for you by getting your car tuned up. You really can't be mad at him because it was found. I know you young uns think a car is a good hiding spot, but it really isn't. And, realistically hon, all your grandma is doing is "saving you from yourself". I don't expect you to fully understand that at this point of your life. One day, much later, you'll understand. I promise.

Don't do anything stupid that you'll totally regret once you've cooled off.
What kind of rehab center will you be going to? Residential or boot camp? Be happy if it's a res.

So sorry to hear about what happened. Please keep your head up and don't do anything stupid. Life is a highway with some bumps in it. this is one of your bumps. you WILL live, survive, and continue your life, doing something stupid, you will not.

no matter what you do. don't blame yourself for leaving it in the car. because what happens... happens. and it could not have happened, and would not have happened any other way. dont try and say "if ONLY I WOULD HAVE..." we can not change the past just like we can not change the direction of the wind, but we can ADJUST OUR SAILS. Keep your head up. Life goes on. I'll be routing for you. Hope everything turns out well.

its like weed was the only thing that made me feel like everything in my life is alright and now i dont even have that not to mention my mother or father...

[souldistortion]

weed shouldnt be the only thing in your life that makes you feel alright. it brings me comfort but dont lean on it for psychological support. because you'll go nowhere. remember that cannabis is meant to enhance your life, not be your life. hope things are going well

[crudemood]

i feel bad that happened to you. whats wrong with your family. seriously id be so pissed off if i were you. how could they rat you out like that..
myfamily knows i grow i smoke.. they're cool. they love that im happy..
yours should be too.. augh i have such low tolerance for ignorance.

I feel your pain man

I may not know whats it like to go through exactly what you are going through right now but Ive been through some shit as well...

when i first got caught smoking my parents took my truck from me for 6 months and I couldnt go anywhere...on top of that...I had owed them up to 1200 bucks for various things so I was basically working minimum wage for a long time without recieving any of my pay checks and it was really a horrible time in my life...

Im sure with you facing felony charges and going through the burn that this situation may be a little worse than mine....but all you can do is keep your head up and just know that in the future everything will work itself out and be fine again....

good luck

you have my sympathy

thanks for the replies I woke up feeling a little better today(i think the pain meds make me a little depressed) the good new is im only 17 so im probly gonna get drug court where i will probly just have probation for a couple years...

Blake, you will survive this. The probation will be a drag, but if you're half-way smart, you'll get through it. Your grandparents were raised on the "demon weed" myths. They are not really to blame for their attitudes. They believe the BS they were taught. You will forgive them... eventually. Like you said, you're 17- the courts will likely go easy on you. Go into court looking clean-cut and "cowed" as possible. And you are 17- less than a year until you can get your own place. Play it cool in the meantime- you can manage that! It's not forever!
