The bad thing was I had to cancel on two parents yesterday.
And one of them I can never get on Email.
So I tried calling tonight to reschedule. She didn't answer
and didn't call back.

Just hoping she does in time for me to help her this week.
I have inservice pretty much three days next week. And
probably will only work if really needed another day.
So if she doesn't get back its going to be another week.

I am working to make back the time with both.
The other one has an meeting, and then will call me tomorrow.

Ugh, there seems to be a real issue with one of my families.
And them not realizing when they give things in gtube it
causes problems. And Tums isn't the answer for all kids.
Especially when they aren't supposed to have. And yes,
even though they will say not. I'm sure this mom told them.

Donna:hug::grouphug:

I hope that everything works out next week...
You are really working hard, and have a lot going on :hug::hug::hug:

Oh I will definitely enjoy next week.

I did hear back from the parent that they tried
to bully into having an meeting technically with out
me. They changed the time, So I could go.

Guessing they got told one time, isnt enough.
They have to be willing to work with parents.

Donna :hug::grouphug:

Good for those parents for asserting themselves. They should work with the caseworker(s) they feel comfortable with. It's a compliment :)

well I have more news today.

1. I had sent an email to the company that handles Derrick's
employment and paycheck stubs. I have never been able
to get into his account. So they have had to send the things
in the mail. But the guy at SSI, decided to give me a lecture
as to how he wants them. And I'm going to have to call
SSI and have a discussion with his boss. BEcause you can't
bully someone by saying it has to be this way or else.
HE doesn't like the fact I mail them in. Either text them,
which isn't working or call them in. Which they don't acknowledge
if you can get into the number.
So I mail them .

2. Got called because my travel claim isn't using the correct information.
Well its what I've been using, but I can't always get back to the
correct area. So he walked me through, I think I can know get in
the first time. Without that frustration too.

3. Waiting to hear what to do about SUmac our database.
It doesn't like me today.

4. I heard from the director, and so did the parent. Of the cooperative that
handles the special education. She wants a time to call the parent.
She doesn't like what is going on, or is very concerned I asked for the
state nurse information.

Heehee, squeaky wheel gets answers it seems today.
In less than two hours.


No one but me, Derrick and his helper really understand my frustration
not getting into his account. But the lady today said, it must really be
frustrating. And told us what the problem was. Think fact that I'm his
guardian made a difference. And the fact I cc: um about 7 to 8 or more
people.

Well still putting out fires today.

I called SSI gave his income number. And found out who to
complain to about the guy the other day. Found someone
I am hoping the director will let take his case.
She is sending me some things I need either way.

Wrote and printed out the letter. Getting ready to find
envelope and send it soon.

Next I spent sometime with Dan. He is doing real good.
And is even working to save some money. This is
new for him. I'm impressed, he is talking about saving
money to buy a vehicle.

I then hear from one of my friends, who used to be
one of my Volunteers in the county I live in. She is
working with a mutual friend and was asking questions.
Then to top it off, she is ready to come back as a volunteer.
This is great.

Donna:grouphug::hug:

Donna,
That's good about Derrick and Dan.


You do good work.

Whew! That's a lot of work on your part! I hope everything works out with SSI and the rest. I'm so glad that Dan is doing so well now :hug::hug::hug:
