Missing "court card"

Published

So, like most of us in a intervention program, I have to get my paper signed at every 12-step meeting I go to. I just switched to California's Maximus program and I'm now required to go to one everyday. Well I went to get my paper at the end of the meeting and it was gone!!! Luckily, I still get my other state's paper signed since I'm still waiting to get everything completely switched over. My old states paper was there but my CA one was gone! [emoji30] None of the other nurses I know that go to this particular meeting where there so I don't think it accidentally got picked up by them. And I'm 100% sure I put it in because I place both of my papers folded together. I have no idea why anyone want my paper with Maximus typed big on it plus my name, but who knows.

So grateful that I at least have my other states paper signed to prove attendance. But still took a while of freaking out and calling another nurse in the program to calm me down.

Has anybody else had an issue where they lost their paper or anything like that?

This happened to me once, someone accidentally took my card, I guess. It had about two weeks worth of meetings on it, and I was so upset! My NA friends said they would take care of me =). So what we did was print out another card and passed it around and everyone signed a line. I felt a little guilty but it wasn't as though I hadn't attended the meetings.

After that I started making a copy of my card every weekend. That way if my card got lost again, I wouldn't lose everything!

Yea I had Jan 1-20 on my card so lots of signatures! And it was the first month I've had to do a meeting a day, and it was hard work considering I was only required to do 4 a week.

Thank goodness I was getting two signed, which I think I'll probably keep doing! And making a copy at least every week. I just never would of expected someone to take it [emoji30]

Take a photo with your phone. Then it's time/date stamped. There are ways to covert photos from a smart phone to a PDF.

Hang in there at least you had back up. Hopefully it was an innocent mistake
