[QUOTE="buddy, post: 503315, member: 12886"] Glad you caught the medication problem! My sister found Concerta capsules in her trash or bathroom drawers and realized the same thing for her son with adhd. I have found out that certain medication changes need to happen through mistakes too. (yes, it has been embarrassing but not always me, thank heaven... like when the dr. wrote the wrong directions for the school nurse and Q got triple the clonidine he needed--instead of three times per day he wrote three tabs-- poor nurse panicked and took his blood pressure every fifteen minutes for the rest of the day, but he sure was pleasant for them). Sorry that when you told the social workers about how desperate you were you did not get more help. I am glad difficult child is giving you a break at home but poor kid sounds so wound up and anxious he is falling apart in school. I pray someone hears your pleas for help. Maybe when doctor comes back. We can hope. This child is autistic, he should be able to have in home services through his insurance, including PCA, ABA, Integrated Listening Systems (ILS), etc... I dont remember if you have county services at all?? If a child is imminently at risk of out of home placement, the county often can come up with funding they said they dont have.... most have emergency funds for situations like this to provide more support to keep the child in home. (obviously costs less for that than residential placement). Imagine if you had even 4 hours per school day and 16 on the weekend?? (heck at this point 10 hours a week would be a nice break) I pray that is available for you and husband. Glad to hear he is taking on more. That has to be good for both of you. Thanks for the update. I have wondered about how you were doing.... {{{more hugs}}} oops, forgot you are in canada... ok will leave it up to the canadian folks to make the govt. support ideas..... [/QUOTE]
