Well things are going pretty good. Derrick got an offer from Purdue.
He will return date I'm not sure of yet. Only because like every college they are getting ready for Returning to dorms and things. But he will leave his present employer on July 26th. Which will give him an couple weeks off. He will probably work 4 days a week most weeks, which will be daytime hours. And ride access both ways again. Which will take the stress from not knowing hours away. So that is great for him and us. He will make a little more money so will have to make sure he doesn't lose medicaid or ssdi. But will not worry about food stamps or ssi. Donna |

Yes, everyone I'm a very happy mama. When my kids are happy
I'm happy. It shows that life is good. As you all know I've been really worried about another of my son's this past spring. Well I have to say he is also impressing me lately. He is doing so well on his present medicines. But he really is working on how he spends his money so it last till the end of the month. I am not sure he will ever get it to completely last. But we will see. He has the main doctor for a psychiatrist now at the place he goes. Seems when he got the cancellation that was who it was. It was good because this lady really listened, didn't change things. And told him to get used to these meds and then she would consider adding something for his night terrors. So this month she did add for his night terrors. But because he is still having trouble with medicaid having his meds filled he is waiting just a little longer to get it filled, it wont be long. I wont let him. But I was impressed, the other person would have wanted him on the meds he had been on and not the ones that work. Do we are all pleased with the progress and the new and improved Dan. He is doing so much better. But he is now bored, so will have to find somethings he can do. Donna |

Derrick called me a little bit ago very upbeat after getting off work.
Seems the main boss were he is working his two week notice got himself into some hot water, by not doing what he said he would. The manager that had given Derrick the glowing referrence from the Scotty's in Muncie, got a call from Purdue wanting to know if they should hire him. I guess they also told him why he was leaving the Scotty's in West Lafayette that with a diploma and things from the Erskine Greene and the glowing references the main manager had broken his promise to put him in the kitchen. Even going so far as to hiring people without such glowing references and no diploma's too. So he is going to be retrained. And an different manager has been brought in. I'm guessing to handle things till Derrick is gone, and while they clean up the mess he made in the kitchen. So It is looking like something good came from his leaving for the store. Because I guess the new manager and the girls that were brought back to clean the mess up in the kitchen are the ones that told him what had happened. They have also told him if he wants or needs a job next summer they will be there when he works. Donna |

Yes, he was really happy.
Well until I took him to the neurologist, I know why I don't like being the one to take him. When I take him the neurologist likes to make it like he shouldn't be living alone. This time it really brought Derrick down too. He stuck on this and it looked like he was going to stick to it so much he would make us do something. Not sure how to react. He has earned his freedom, and honestly the fact that he has left temporal activity at night during sleep that isn't even definitely seizures. Isn't something that we can really do anything about. So it makes it even harder on us. I am not really sure how to react. I did tell him I was and I am looking into life alert. And we will at some time soon be getting that. But its really hard to say. If that is going to really be the answer either. Just life really. I've been in kokomo for a few days. No tv, no internet and just my cell phone. Trying to get some things done. But not much help except one sister a few hours. THe other sister thought we needed to meet with a person to talk about things. Well it took all of 5 minutes with no information. And then we had supper three of us and one husband. And then alone time, with knowledge that my car might not go the next day, I'd had oil light trouble all day. So it was a fun day. But got better. Not sure if two of my sisters will ever really want to do anything with the house, one just wants to auction the furniture. The other well she is just busy. We will see. Donna |
