First of all heroin is a toughie to kick. Secondly though, that's an awful long stint in rehab! I've never had a bio-parent be in a program longer than 6 weeks before graduating and moving on to a sober living house or flat back out on their own. I think that'll likely work in her favor if she's been there and clean for four months AND still has up to two additional months of support available to her there. As to your questions:
Do you think they will let her leave the facility w/ the brother, or put him in a foster home til the court hearing??
I'd guess whether or not that happens will be determined by if she has stable housing, income, and keeps her record of clean drug tests, continually clean. If she doesn't he'll likely enter care and you'll be asked to provide it, if she does then it might be allowed.
Also, do you think 2 weeks after she moves out of rehab they would let her have BOTH of her kids back??
There too I think that would depend on if she's able to get herself cleaned up and her life in order. If she can't show the kids have a safe place to live, income to provide for their needs and a record of sobriety then I highly highly doubt either child will be allowed to be with her at that time. 6-8 weeks is a long time and a lot could happen between now and then either way. It's plenty of time to get everything in order with all the assistance she's likely receiving, and plenty of time to "fail" in her attempt to get clean if that's the road she's going to take. Things could certainly go both ways but four months clean is a really good step in the right direction.
