Narconon Stone Hawk Rehabilitation Center (now Called Forever Recovery) Narconon Battle Creek MI Misleading, Unprofessional Rehab Center. Bridgeton, Missouri

 We sent our son here in June of 2005. We gave them 25,000.00 up front. They charged us 5000 extra because our son was coming in with a broken jaw. The wires came off and they never took him to the hospital. His jaws did not heal right. He lasted 2 weeks and hicked hiked home to West Chester, Pa

Are you reading all this?

Hope so.

Because in your haste to draw your "no talk" conrtact, you have "can" rather than "cannot".  Check your copy as I am sure you know who I am.

Let's see our day in court. Shall we?

It's not me.

It's all those other vulnerable people.

I will not rest, until you cease!

Glad Miss Fortune has taken an interest.

Glad the Michigan Atty has taken an interest.

I WILL shut you down !

Just to let you know, I have filed an extensive report/complaint about this place. I was there recently and got out of that mess after 5 days. I have filed a ripoffreport also. The complaint number is 593541. Hopefully the AG will look into this kooky place.

I am very sorry to learn about your brother's unfortunate experiences at "A Forever Recovery."

It is "A Forever Money Scam" and I do not understand why the Attorney General has not been notified.  I simply cannot fathom why Per Wickstom has been able to continuing running ANY business in the state of Michigan, much less a "medical" facility.

I too was "driven to a hotel" . Wickstom himself was quite angry at me for stirring the pot with his other clients. He was going to drive me himself, but thankfully ( for both of us) he gave the keys to his Hummer - and me- to the care of another employee. So I got a ride out in the company Hummer.

The first hotel they tried to drop me off at was in an area known as "crack town".  I only knew this by asking a gas station attendant when we stopped for gas. The driver realized he'd "been had" and drove me futher into a safer part of town.

I was lucky because I was an adult with resources and a credit card to eventually get myself back home.  Evidently they do this hotel thing a lot with their young clients, hoping they wil get into trouble and have to return to the facility.

It is not only UNethical. It is dangerous.  Someday an "unruly/protesting" client will be dropped at a hotel and die .   WHY is the Attorney General waiting for this to happen?

Again, I am very sorry about your financial loss and the lack of care for your brother.

A Forever Recovery has many problems and if the are connected with Stone Hawk or not, I cannot say.

I inadvertently posted two reports on A Forever Recovery as there was a delay and I thought my first did not go through.

Anyway, I do not think A Forever Recovery is still technically associated with Narconon.  After the divorce, Per Winstrom  ( Wickstorm Chevrolet) registers "A Forever Recovery" as a fictious name for the Narconon Stome Hill site.

Oct 2009 Wickstrom Chevrolet drops it as an assumed name.

However, the name is now in use, and  the program slightly changed from what I read of the original Stone Hawk reports . But , the cal -mag, sauna and most importantly the lies, control and manipulation are still there.  It is about MONEY, and deceitful buisness practice.

The current website is www.stopyouraddict.com

I feel so badly my friend was taken for her money out of love and concern for me.

This is the worse kind of money scam.

I am sure the Scientology influence is still there though I never attended "the program".   My few days in the detox hut were enough to tell me something was VERY wrong with this facility.

I will continue to 'get the word out', so others are not hurt or scammed.

Thank you for the additional links and warnings.

You've discovered an arm of the Church of Scientology.

No, I'm not kidding.

Narconon (as opposed to NarcAnon) is run, organized and pays money to, what is known as the "Religious Technology Center", or "RTC" for short. In return for outrageous franchise fees, RTC allows Narconon centers to utilize the "technology" (or "tech") of L. Ron Hubbard.

The tech aforementioned, is nothing more than quack pop psychology and uses dangerous pseudo-science to "cure" people of addiction. Part of the cure relies in ingesting dangerous amounts of "Cal-Mag" and spending dangerous amounts of time in a sauna. The results of this "treatment" can be severe damage of the liver.

The people who apply this "tech" are NOT trained medical professionals in any way, shape or form. The administrators are members of the Church of Scientology, and their only goal is to SELL, SELL, SELL services and, wherever possible, convert people to the "religion" of Scientology, route them into one of the many missions or "Churches" and put them to work under deplorable conditions for little or no pay (would YOU work for about $38 a week?)

I implore you to visit the sites http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Stop-Narconon/ or www.xenu.net and find out what Scientology and Narconon do NOT want you to know.

Please also be aware that since Narconon is run by the Church of Scientology, it is highly possible they will try to find out who you are, intimidate you and "shudder you into silence". Please know that this is a dictate handed down by L. Ron Hubbard himself. he stated "never defend, always attack" and directed his minions to hunt down and "destroy by any means necessary" people who stood against the expansion of Scientology. This would mean you and me.

I wish you the best, truly, and hope that you make use of the resources I've left here.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Help end the nightmare.
