Wow, things have really been off for Derrick with his roommate, but we have
done everything I can think of to make it work. Tonight was the last straw.
We just went in about 9:30 to 10pm to pick Derrick up after he called and
let me know that he didn't feel safe anymore. While he was gone last night
to his provider's who takes him to the dentist, which he went this morning.
One or more of his roommates friends got into his room, which was locked.
And threw all his sheets and blankets on the floor. And slept as far as we
know on the bed. Seems, his roommate has had at least two or more
friends staying with them since Sunday night. Two that are homeless from
what Derrick understands. Tonight when we got there 5 or 6 people
were in the apartment, one of which people that live in the 4 apartment area
say has been banned from being there.
So we will be moving Derrick out as soon as we can. And will be looking
into getting him a one bedroom apartment. It will take a while. So he
will either stay with his provider or us till then. We had already been
working on a rent assistance one bedroom for him. Now really hoping
its going to work out. Even if its August like his original contract would
have been.
I'm a nervous wreck right now.
