That's a pretty good plan. And you are doing a good job of being supportive, it sounds like.
Now, this would be the perfect time for a swear word.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Knitting benders totes exist, and it ain't pretty. Or rather, it's very pretty until you find yourself at 5 in the morning with a whole new project because you rolled right into it after finishing the old one because you just had to dig into that new yarn and DAMN. Your hands. Damn.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
"Yeah," he said, "you definitely don't get to be my sponsor."
On the other hand, you can definitely be mine, should I ever need one.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Oh, yeah, he doesn't know the pain of a knitting bender. You wake up all covered in gun cozies and you don't even recognize the colorways.

Okay, but I warn you -- it's going to be all knitting and Pilates.

He probably needs these.

You could knit a foam roller or a reformer or something.

My brother is having really horrible withdrawal (as one might expect) -- bad cramps and the shakes -- so he's going to go to the hospital later. (His wife went to work this morning, but is taking the afternoon off [she just got back in town Saturday night from Guatemala, or Peru, or some coffee-growing country, and since she stayed home from work yesterday, she really needed to go in today], and she's taking tomorrow off.) He wants to wait until she gets home to go to the hospital.
I'm so worried about him.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
He needs to go in now. Can you convince him to go?

My mom already tried. He doesn't want to call 911, and he's in no shape to drive. I can try, but I think he'll stubborn it out.

Is there a friend of his you can call? He can be stubborn with someone there, at the very least.
