The first day of Austin's detox was a rough one. He laid in bed most of the day. Luckily, he didn't have a full on alcohol addiction. However, he did drink heavily on nights they'd go out. Detoxing was necessary for this reason.
Austin was sweating and throwing up. "Ugh, this is the worst." He says as he throws up one more time. Olena rubs his back to help him get through it. She hands him a gatorade and lets him sip at it.
Olena helps him back to bed. "You're gonna be ok bud. It's all part of the process. Get some rest." Luke says. Austin laid down. He lets Olena strip him of his T-shirt so he doesn't sweat through it.
"Ok, now you've earned your turn to be babied. You're doing so well. 6 to 9 more days and it'll get better. We're all gonna take care of you until you're better." Rob says.
When Austin started sweating again, Adam turned on the fan full blast. "That's so much better. Thank you." Austin says.
Olena rubbed his back as he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep. "Man, this is a gonna be a long week." Chance says.
"It's gonna be even longer for Austin. He's the one going through withdrawal. The best we can do for him is keep him cool and let him rest. We must let him know he's not going to go through this alone." Cole says.
The band agrees. "It's almost lunchtime... who's gonna watch Austin while we grab something to eat?" Rob asks.
"We could always park and one of us can go in and order and bring it out. Who's up for Freddy's?" Cole asks. The band again raises their hands.
Tim quietly slips into the kitchen and makes Jenika a vegetarian lunch so she doesn't have to eat what they eat. "Here sweetie." Tim says, handing Jenika a bowl of bean dip, some tortilla chips, mixed nuts, and spinach leaves.
"Thank you. You're so thoughtful." Jenika says and eats her lunch.
