I am thinking of you. Let me know how it goes.

jinny... Justgiving... Melinda2boys... thank you for thinkning about me and my family
It was a very intense meeting, but good. I'll write more about it tomorrow because I'm too tired to do it now.

I love you, all!!!!

I'm glad it went well ..... i hope something constructive has come out of this, you've struggled long enough .......

speak soon, love Kerry xoxoxoxoxoxo

All the best at your meeting. Take in your notes of everything you want covered & don't leave until everything is addressed to your satisfaction. That is what I do when I go to the doc. I have memory problems due to meds & then the anxiety doesn't help so I just do through my list & write notes & ask questions.--Suzy

We were 14 persons at the meeting about our son. We talked about how bad our son's been feeling this summer and everyone thought it was just outrages the way we didn't get any help.
To cut it short... we came up with 3 areas to take care of:

1. Have a meeting together with the child psychiatric unit and the other unit at the hospital (don't know what to call it English). Together we'll come up with a plan not only for today, but also for the future. Our son will get to see someone to help him build up his view upon himself in a more positive way... by learning about himself and his disorders. That's all we know about this for now.

2. We're going to figure out what to do when our son is feeling really really bad... being suicidal or violent. We HAVE to know where to call and where to go! This is going to be written down and decided in advance. Personnel will know facts about our son to know who he is when he comes to the ward/unit.

3. I will teach the respite personnel, our son's teacher, the school nurse and another teacher, about how to write and put together social stories for our son.

The school principals questioned how on earth hubby and I manage to do everything... both take care of our special needs child, our daughter and all the housework. The thought we should have some help to do things around the house to save us some energy... I don't really know about that though...

Our son's teacher said he's doing very well in school. He doesn't curse at all in class. (After holding it all back all day in school... he just can't make it anymore... so the words flow at the respite and at home.) He works hard. He's even been able to let his teacher know when he's enjoying doing something... "History is real fun!" He's doing well around his classmates. (But... he made several of the boys walk into the girl's locker room at physical class last Thursday... hmm... ooh... no... The girls screamed with both excitement and "fear". :icon_eek::OuttaHere

We're going to see the psychiatrist and doc in about a week from now, to check his meds.

G's been very cuddly the last 2-3 days... He comes up to me asking if I want a hug and then we hug in a firm way. Yesterday he hugged me... then he said: "Mom I really like you... I love you!", then he kissed my cheek. awww... my boy...

Right now G is feeling a bit better... It's hard to say but I think it's because the structure with school is back and maybe the Sertraline is kicking in.

Today our daughter's away playing at a friend's house and our son's home alone with me and hubby. G said; he likes being home alone with us for a while.
After being at the respite yesterday... he needs to "feel more home" and relax doing his stuff.

G is finally getting some help, that makes me very happy. And a relief for you and J. Finding the support that you need and have wanted for so long is a blessing all in it's self. I know that there is still a fight to be fought and you and will be in the forefront. Remember how much I love you and the entire family. Blessings to you and the family.

he's too young to go through this, and is lucky to have such a great mom and dad to help him through it all.

Thanks Mike for your kind caring words!

So glad that you are getting some help at last.

I'm sure i posted here after i read this last comment about G at shool

I'm so sorry, you've all endured enough, i truly hope the school is going to do something about this, please give G a big hug from me, I too ..... one big squishy hug for you too ..... this is all so unfair, i know how G responds to such things, well, much as i can know ...... he doesn't deserve this ..... i'm so sorry. my thoughts are with you all .... love, Kerry xoxoxoxoxo

I called my son's teacher before school this morning and talked about it all.
She's now talked to the boys involved and they said sorry to my son.
My son's teacher is very good and I know she'll take care of this.

I can't stand G being hurt in any way. He's struggling so hard already as it is.
Of course he reacts more to the words spoken to him since he's got AS and ADHD and doesn't fully understand the social interaction with his friends.
Kids can say things to each other in the heat of the moment and then be friends again after half an hour... but if the same things are being said to my son he takes them to heart and thinks he's useless and just lost a friend for good.

But then there are other things that just is not acceptable to say or do and my son's teacher is now aware of what's been happening.

I'm so tired... only feel like crying... after a long summer of my son feeling so bad and now this...

Thanks all of you who have written to me and given support!

Now... this evening G is feeling much better. When he came home from the respite he hugged me and said: "You're the best mom! Thank you for always helping me! Thank you for calling C (his teacher)!... I know now that you love me, mom." This really brought tears to my eyes.
