They have 4 right now, and will hopefully have all 4 I believe at christmas.
Just celebrated the 16th birthday of one of them. They want very much
to adopt but haven't been able to.

They do pretty good as long as the meds stay stable. And we are lucky our
family is very supportive. My mom and a sister is always available if my
sister feels the need to go to the hospital for some reason.

Which has happened in the past. So she will get a ride if necessary.

Wow, they must be B-U-S-Y!!!! I admire that they are able to juggle all of those responsibilities. I wonder sometimes how big a difference family support can make.
