Dear Donna,

Good luck with the Asthma doctor today.

Hi Everyone,

My appt today went very well. He thought my evaluation with the
machine did great. But it was low because I had to do a nebulizer
treatment. After that I had a 5% increase in the testing.

So I then talked to the doctor. I then got my medicines singulair,
xopenox, for the nebulizer and the handheld, and the main meds.
I have forgotten its name.

He emailed it to Medco so I have to wait on them. I wont have
any for a while. Except mainly the xopenox.

Hi Donna,
Great news about the confernce, what a weight off for sure. Glad that is working out for the kids.

About the dil, I worked with families and courts for estranged families and our program ran supervised visitations. The dil is going to need an attorney. There likely is no longer a restraining order in affect. The longest I heard of one was three years in our jurisdiction. But, even with a restraining order, the parents were allowed visits, they just had to be supervised. I had parents in jail, on probation for molestation, but the parent was still allowed visits.

The kids could not state they did not want to see the parent. Courts feel you do not allow your child to say they do not want to go to school. The court will have a psych eval on both parents and child, and perhaps have the first contacts to view interaction with child in that setting.
I went through this personally, and that is why I got into it professionally. I still do a lot of supervised exchanges and visits as referred fromt the court or attorneys.

Especially if the dil has communication problems, if her ex has an attorney he will really attack her. He would bring up her problems in an attempt to discredit her and build up his client.
Many times it is a child support matter. Make sure dil is getting the majority updated amount she is entitled to, if he is playing games. Sometimes the ex's will go away if they think the support will be left alone.

My ex tried this same thing, although nurses heard him say he was going to drop our newborn on the floor, he still got supervised visits until he tired of them. It was all about, if you take me for support, I will get visitation. After supervised visits, he just never made any parenting gains in their eyes, refused the parenting course he needed and said he was not going to see the kdis anymore.

These fathers just think as sperm donors they have rights, but they still need to establish safe environment. I hope he lets it drop, but sounds like this may be a battle. IF he does move and abadons the child, make sure dil follows up with child abadonment after a year. THis document protects her, heaven forbid something happes as in my dd situation with an estate. We never think about this horror, but it happened to me, and never want a Mom with deadbeat go through what I did.
My prayers are with them,
di

Thanks for the comments Di-Marie

But the restraining order was just issued in March or April of this year.

It was issued because he came to our town and started looking for were
she lives. Started saying things.

But we will see what happens. We didn't get a lawyer, she wants to
wait. She doesn't have money, so that will have to be.

I can't make her do something otherwise at this time. So we will see.

I do think the court will order if anything supervised visitation, and that
would be much better. I believe with the help of the counseling and
things.

Hi everyone

Derrick's fine arts festival went well today.

The superintendent chose to feature his art work on the facebook
page. Wow, he asked our permission.

But I don't know if its possible to put it here. So I wish I could
figure it out.

But anyway, I thought it was neat.

I wish I know how to .

But if you are on facebook. My name is Donna Roberts on there.
Friend me, and find the pictures. They are on my page.

Donna

Yes he did. He always does though.

Donna

He is awesome

Derrick got two really nice cards today.

One from all the staff at the humane society he volunteers at.

Stating how much they enjoy his help. And hope he comes back
soon. And one with a gift certificate for Sonic, a place around
here.

From the lady who trained him and has been his mentor.

He is really honored. He told me he cried when they gave him
the cards.

Donna

that is so sweet.
