[QUOTE="hersheyb79, post: 543192, member: 11482"] I've been gone a while. As you can imagine, our cross country move for my husband's job has been very difficult, but especially on DS. It was a horrible move, with our stuff being very delayed getting to us because of the Colorado wild fires, so we wound up being in a hotel for a month. I tried to register the kids for school today, but apparently that isn't how it's done here in MI. I have to wait until August to get it done. I tried talking to them about his IEP and explaining that we needed an IEP meeting and I didn't want to wait until the week before school starts to do it. They acted like I have 2 heads and kept saying I had to wait for him to start school to get it done, they can't take the Colorado IEP, etc. I know that what they were saying is wrong, but try convincing THEM of that! To make matters worse, I'm having an incredibly difficult time getting him into a PDR to get his medications refilled. I am considering tapering him off because he only has 1 week left and no refills and no prospect of an apt right now because I can't figure out anyone who will see him (everyone either only takes Medicaid or isn't taking new private pay patients). I hate small towns. I have tried literally begging for an apt, no dice. Anyway, this is just a vent. I am missing big city life, as much as I know we needed to move, I can see that small town life is going to mean less services for my already underserved child. [/QUOTE]
