Aborition

I went to have an abortion, they told me I was to far along 22 weeks, so I would have to have a different kind. When I went in to have the abortion they said it would be over a 4 day period. before the 4 days was up I delivered the baby at my grandmas. We took the baby to the hospital, it was not alive. but they said I and the baby which come to find out was 36 weeks, tested postive for a leathal amount of meth. my question is what do i do? or what can they do? this is not me, this is happening to my best frind. she won't help herself so I am trying to figure out if she needs a lawyer?
