Yes, Kay.

And remember this is his dad and his live in girlfriend. And she is comparing him to her daughter and son who have autism. One who is asperger's and
very high functioning and very smart. The other one, well I'd say has an higher IQ than she wants to admit. And they came from California and they seem to have better schools for Autism than many states do.

But her other son that is 7th grade and doesn't supposedly have a disability but ADHD isn't making good grades. And he really has some problems.
But that is ok you know.

But Devin is seeing that we have looked into everything and were not finding any thing so he thinks he should be doing better. But I know what that means.
ANd he will do just fine in his world. He just needs to be allowed to grow within his own life. And honestly he needs out of the elementary school one more year. Its not doing him much good.

This must be SO FRUSTRATING for you...

[Dmom3005]

Its frustrating, but its something that we will learn to work with.

They just need let life work through it. Life has a way of working
out. Its just something we have to learn to deal with in life.

The kids had a great time at bingo last night. They all won at bingo
at least once, or got taken by a friend to get a prize once. It was kind
of neat. I believe the girls each got two things. Which was good and
Derrick one. Which he really didn't care.

Derrick got this neat blue glass what looked like genie bottle. I don't
know that I've ever seen one of them.

I brought Layla to spend some time with me for the weekend. She has
been having a stressful time with the lady she is staying with. Because
she is really high strung the lady is. And has had two little ones staying
with her most of the time. One is the little boy that is her sister's little
one. Her sister is coming back from California right now, they had to
go back so her husband could finish his class test. And some other things.
He is in or was in the Navy.

They are driving back right now I believe.

Not honestly sure what all I posted so hopefully not repeating.

i spent the holiday with my mom. Not that she noticed, but that was okay. She really is bad. My sister's found out on Wednesday as soon as they pick an place which I'm guessing they may have today she can have an emergency placement into an nursing home. Which will be a big relief.

My idiot husband is more worried about us losing her house. I could honestly care less. Its just a house. Yes it has lots of memories, but my mom and her health is much more important. If she has to go on medicaid.

I'm guessing it will be a little while, because I know she has some money right now. But how much I don't know. I'm just hoping we can get some of her things out so we can keep them.

My husband and I could buy the house too. We are the only ones that could.
But we will see. Because I don't want to cause any rifts.

I also get on the computer tonight. And I find I've got three new cases.
From an co-worker who I believe went on medical leave earlier last month.
THat I believe our supervisor forgot to tell the main office secretaries.
Who then didn't assign the tickets that we are now getting from the main office. Which are really helping us a lot. So now I've gotten two tickets that
should have been answered 10 days ago, and I believe one that is 15 days late.
And one that is just 2 days. Which is close to on time.

So I let the parents know I'll be calling tomorrow, and what I believe happened.
And that I'm sorry it happened. So that hopefully they will at least know its okay. I'm going to be calling.

Looks like I'm going to be busy for sure. Which is sure fine.

Is she getting enough liquids?

Dehydration can cause confusion and disorientation.

Mari
To start it was figured out at the ER that her meds were really mixed up.
They redid some of them. Because she was holding water in her legs at
the rehab center they had water pills a lot it seems. But they forgot to
take some of them away. So that is one change they made.

And I'm guessing no she isn't getting as much hydration as she is supposed
to but I know my sisters are trying. She just is sleeping alot right now.
Which is good. She doesn't always sleep good.

I know that they are moving her this afternoon to a nursing home.
So I know all are going to be relieved. And that its being kept quiet
so I'm glad we are getting to the next step.

I'm so sorry that your mother's health is declining, Donna

It sounds like you have a close family, and it seems like you are all focused right now and doing what's best for your mom. I hope you can all find a way to work together regarding her finances, etc when the time is right

I'm glad that work will be keeping you busy (since you don't mind)
