And I guess, losing my s**t on my H, who is also home (though he claims I haven't lost it on him yet, even though I feel like I have). And I'm afraid her IEP meeting will be rescheduled to a session time with you, and then they won't let us reschedule. Or then, will it be like I'm putting you above D? When really, it's like I'm trying to do the whole "put my oxygen mask on first" thing in terms of my mental health--I'm sure that's probably what you'd say. (And of course I want a drink right now...will attempt to hold off as long as possible.)

LT, I can’t help but jump in here - and I realize this may not have anything to do with the main point of your post here - but please consult your procedural safeguards handbook regarding that IEP meeting. In my school district, an IEP meeting must be held at a mutually agreeable time. If the day/time doesn’t work for you due to a therapy appointment, request another day/time. I’m pretty sure you can call the shots on this one.
