My brother's not doing well and is suicidal and not maintaining temper, nerves, etc.

My little man is coming home full time. They only had him three nights and 2 days, but it was too much after a while.

A precious child's well being MUST be first. I'm gonna be off and on for a few days while the adjustments, decisions are being made.

Much love,

kd

Love, Candy

PS: He's a little heartbreaker, too! Just wait till he goes to preschool -- the girls are going to be all over him! Little man coming home full time

KD, oh my, it's finally happened, huh? A permanent fix sounds good to me. Kids need to lay their little heads on the same pillow under the same roof in the same safe home every night for the stongest sense of stability, in my humble opinion......

I hope your brother finds his way to some peace. Hard stuff. You guys have been through so much. . . I'll be thinking of you'uns.

again, ((((((((everyone)))))))))) thank you so much.

a good little update...

i think we're turning his anxiety of being in trouble around pretty quickly while here. today, for example, me and him were dancing and i had to do a few things. he continued dancing with the back scratcher (LOL) and in his excitement released it and it went across the room. immediately he stopped with a scared look and said, "it was an accident mom" and dropped his head to get ready to cry. i put my hand up and VERY softly said, "yes, it was an accident and EVERYONE is fine" with a smile. he didn't cry! even two days ago he would've bawled. this is good.

later we'll talk about being careful with the backscratcher. Little man coming home full time i just wanted the focus on it being fine for the moment. if i would've said anything more than that, it would've validated his fear.

oh, just now, he was rolling off the couch (he's a little boy) and spilled his toys and i just looked to make sure he was ok and said nothing. he came up and got in my face and said, "that's ok? you're not mad, mom?" i said, "no, honey, i'm not mad. we'll pick it up together." he felt comfortable enough to say, "no, you can pick it up." LOLOL.

it's going to be a fine line in letting him know that it's all alright, and not allowing for what is not alright. however, unless it's something dangerous, everything is just alright right now.

he's been so increasingly showing this behavior of anxiety and people being "mean and mad" for about the last three weeks....coinciding with daddy not doing well. i'd been watching closely as i was picking up on the change. when i saw it increasing, i knew and acted.

thank you all so much again.

Now, please pray for warm weather!

kd

What KD you not like snow the first 2 days of Spring????

I'm glad little man is settling back in. Think he will be back to his normal self in a week or two. It must be really confusing for him right now. Just breath. Take Care.
Much Love, Monty
