I am so sorry
Mom~
I am so sorry to hear about Ben. Hopefully this stay at the hospital will get him on the correct medication to help him. You are a great mother and you did what you could to help him. This illness is a very min condition for any self control or control at all. Yes the medical systems are a gamble!
When I was at a year that is when everything got horrible and I was out of control with life and then slowly after I started taking baby steps to improvements. My thoughts on this is that this was the breaking point when the mental illnesses established and my brain shut down completely. I believe this is because the closed head injury has ran it's main course and the rest is left to be treated and learn new survival skills etc!
I know that you are a concerned mother and this is a step to help him to get on a recovery track. You need to thank yourself for doing what is best to get your son the help and you are so strong for keeping up the fight with the medical system to get him help. Please keep in mind that you did what is best for your son and keep your head up Ben will pull threw in time. Please keep us posted on Ben and you try not to worry yourself sick. I know it is hard! You are strong enough for you and Ben!  Mia
