(((((((((((((((((Leslieann ))))))))))))))))))))) Thank you sweetheart for your kind words.
It is very heartbreaking to see a young child suffering the way he is. It's even more difficult when he realizes himself that he doesn't like lashing out but has such difficulty in maintaining and releasing it in a more healthy and safe way. He is learning....and he is trying so that is a most wonderful thing.
It really kicks me in the stomach to hear a 9yr old say to the T that he "knows" he needs to be in the hospital to get straightened out. Just rips my heart out you know?
Larz did well in his first day at school. I am very proud of him and he was happy to be back. He does need schedules and needs to know what to expect and when most days. So going back to school is really a good thing for him. After school yesterday his case manager picked him up and brought him out and about for a treat and talk. I think this new guy is going to do wonders with Larz....he doesn't let Larz shirk his responsibility to work on his issues!
Again, thank you sweety.....I so appreciate your love and support! And btw....I think you are a wonderful addition to PC and I always read your posts.....very insightful and supportive!
