Inpatient rehabilitation is hard. Paige Hyland learned that when she made a reservation for a six month program in July to try and stay sober off of hard drugs and alcohol. However, she often thought it was the only decision she made that kept her alive through her addiction and heartbreak.

Eventually, by December, Paige developed meaningful relationships within her program, and she felt hardly alone. Her family also visited during guest hours; she would take three hours with them on Mondays, which became her favorite day of the week.

Her least favorite day of the week, however, was Thursday. It was the day the facility would receive the most mail, and the Monroeville Rehabilitation and Wellness Center had just issued a pen pal from across the United States to each one of the patients to help increase their ability of maintaining respectful relationships.
