[QUOTE="DDD, post: 75007, member: 35"] Yep, it was another medical continuance. This PD is trying to get the proof that the Probation restrictions are too difficult for easy child/difficult child due to his cognitive and memory problems. He has not committed a crime since before his brain surgery...but he has been locked up probably seven months this year for violation of probation based on being in, or near, others doing something wrong. That's alot of his life spent incarcerated locally for things that he might not be able to judge in advance as issues. Personally I keep seeing more and more and more articles on TBIs in magazines, newspapers and just this week on the front page of AOL. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)'s manifest in an inconsistent way and thousands and thousands of our young soldiers are coming home damaged just like easy child/difficult child. The AOL article this week was particularly poignant as it included soldiers who, like my child, don't recognize that they have brain damage. There has been a high instance of suicide from the V.A. hospitals by young soldiers who have finally gotten to go home and then finally "see" that they are no longer normal. The depression rate, the unemployment rate, the s.a. percentages etc. are staggering. It's like Agent Orange multiplied for this generation of soldiers. Perhaps the publicity will help my son...cause it really honestly is "hard" to "see" Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) damage unless you live with someone 24/7 so you can judge the before and the after. Anyway.........thanks for the support. I did a GREAT job of pretending that I was a nice normal senior citizen inebriate with NO children this weekend! LOL DDD [/QUOTE]
