The IF, BUT, CHANCES ARE, items you refer to as excuses, are in fact REALITIES.
Bottom Line folks;
I should be allowed to attend the programs and recieve from the public and private services ALREADY in place and PRESENTLY available.

Thank you to all who wrote and responded. It helped relieve a little stesss, but at the present I need support, and am not too prepared to give it. I spent too many years working in Mental Health and Corrections and my well is a little dry right now, when I need the help from fellow health care givers the most.
If any ideas come to mind, please send them to 'Homealone' by PM at this site. I will be forever at your debt.
Thank you one and all, and may God Bless.
