sram-ams(alcohol monitoring bracelet

Anyone wearing or ever worn one of these gadgets? I was just fitted with one yesterday after having my 2nd Dui over a year ago. Am already forming skin abrasions and am concerned about ulceration sores,infection etc. I had been sober 2 years when I relapsed last march and I got popped again, it had been 2years since the first. I have been sober since and managed to drag the court thing on for 10 mnths until this past Jan. when I was sentenced this is part of a very harsh sentence I was given. No one has told me yet how long I have to wear it before I can petition to have it removed. The pain and the financial strain $400.00, a month is unreal. Anyone have any insight or advice about this? Thanks.

Hey back at ya.  You are so right.  another sober day>halelujah
It feels good.  Be glad for you when Monday gets here and you
lose your shackle for good. School today> how many of those do
you need to attend?  You will be through with all of it soon, i hope. I think the letter ought to do it for the bracelet.
Ibizan, have you gone to visit your Mom?  I hope you found her doing
better.  How are all the pooches doing?  I forget how many you said you have?  Another beautiful day in Oregon. woohoo  Off in the jeep my girlies and I will go.  They love it with the top down.
Hang in there and i will too.  Hugs, Tonya

Mornin Girls! Well it's off to school for me this a.m, DUI schools that is. It's the last thing I have to do aside from the straight house arrest and probation. Hopefully no more $$$$ has to be put out. As far as the thingamajig, it's still on, hopefully Monday it will be removed-pray-pray-pray for me! The guy who put it on tlkd to my PO and told my PO he was writing a leter to the court and faxing it over to him. On top of that he followed thru by having his supervisor call PO's supervisor to make him aware of the gravity off this situation, and the papers are supposedly being walked thru right to the Judge, we'll see. But being as yesterday was friday the justice wheels turn real slowly so I have to suffer thru another wknd. It will be worth it if this thing comes off on Mon. The letter included that I was not a good candidate due to medical reasons and the Base in Colorado that monitors this also agreed that some people just can not wear it. That would be me Little Miss Chicken Legs! Anyways gotta go to wk right from school so I'll catch up with ya's later tonight. HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYBODY! IT"S JUST 1 MORE DAY IN A SOBER LIFE, ENJOY IT!!!!!!
