I have been dealing with PCS for 6 months

Hi everyone,

I am glad I came across this site. I was involved in a rear end collision last year and have neck and back problems. I developed a headache a day later that turned ugly and vomited - the headaches have been a constant part of my days since along with memory issues, fatigue, sleep problems, aggressive out bursts etc... I have been told that it takes time to resolve itself ut aside from medication (anti depressant? and Headache script) the doc said there isnt much that can be done. I did go through a days worth of neuro phyc testing and interested in hearing from people who have also gone through this testing anfd their experiences? I wont know the results for another week. I feel on some of the tests i did ok but other stuff that required memorizing , I just couldnt seem to remember alot. before the accident I was highly functioning in a detailed technical careeer. I have been having so many difficulties with forgetullness and not able to remember details of conversations or information unless I write every detail down and re-read through it to keep reminding me. This has been so difficult because I could always rely on my memory to store reminders etcc without needing to write everything down in detail. Even scarier is that I will forget thing friends and family told to me just days before - aside from all the concussion stuff I have orthopedic issues as well. I know there has to be others dealing with symptoms just like these and please if you have gone through the physc testing it would be helpful to understand your experiences with that as well.

Allowing joint custody is the human thing to do for your child. My Ex and I did that and it was a wonderful experience. There were no arguements, and my children still had both loving parents. ginnie

She went to the court house to respond to the subpoena she was served with at the end of December. She had 20 days to respond to it, it's been about 24 days since she was served. So, now she's in default. They told her she had to pay $212 or I could be given full custody of my son. She can't pay it.

Basically, the ball is in my court now...they are going to give me whatever I ask for - she has no say in it anymore. I could be an (insert profanity here) and say I want full custody, but I'm not going to. I'm gonna be the bigger person and request what I set out for: Equal Rights. I want what is best for my son, not what's best for me or her. He needs both his parents in his life whether we are together or not.

I love my son more than anything in the world. If it wasn't for him, I would have gave up this fight to PCS months ago.

bh_pcs,

My mother was just telling me exactly what you said last night. Also, I've never hurt my son, nor have any domestic violence cases against me. The police have never been called on me for anything. She has nothing on me.

Things are actually moving pretty fast. ERDF (Equal Rights for Divorced Fathers) told me to come in and sign some paperwork...and they'll get me a court date within 3-5 days. They are great...they made everything so easy for me. I'll be sure to PM you if I need any help...Thanks!... :)

I think you're set. LOL! :D

Be sure to be the primary so that you get every right to deduct the taxes having your son as the dependent. That should save you a couple of bucks. ;)
