Stealing?

Hi everyone,
  I'm not sure if this is the place to come to but i've been reading over posts for a few hours now and decided to give it a shot.  A couple weeks ago my bottle of prescription percocet went missing.  I couldn't remember if I had left it on my car and maybe it fell out, or it was in my room and a moved it?  ANyway, I didn't really get too upset because I hadn't needed it. I had a lithotripsy done for kidney stones and received 60 percocet after the shock therapy.  The pain wasn't bad and I mentioned this to one of my closest friends. I went to visit my parents at their house and my mom was on the couch with one of her awful migraines.  She is always taking advil etc and i automatically offered her my percocet.  I looked in my purse, it's not there, in the car, not there, in my house, not there.  Yesterday, my friend came over to my house to watch a movie and put her purse on the stairs.  As i was walking down the stairs, my foot got caught on the strap and everything fell out.  I started picking it up and replacing it in the bag apologizing profusely.  She came over running saying she'd take care of it.  As i picked up the pills and casually asked what she was taking i glanced at the bottle and it had MY NAME ON IT!!!!!  I acted like i didn't see but i was so unnerved the rest of the time I started shaking.  She ended up leaving saying she forgot to lock the door.  I don't think she knows I saw what' on the bottle but i don't know what to do.? Did she steal it or did it just somehow get there? AM i crazy? Maybe she found them and forgot to tell me? But than wouldn't she have told me? Please help.

I'd call her up and confront her.  Tell her you saw them and you want them back.  We're talking a crime here.

Plain & simple dear.  She stole it.  That what we do when we have a problem.

She will always be on the look-out for this type of meds.  She will steal from her family, friends and do the unthinkable if she is addicted.
