[QUOTE="Shari, post: 455010, member: 1848"] I know nasty-grams are not generally effective. Or even appropriate. And it remains to be seen what the ultimate outcome of this one is. County case mgr thinks the combination of the nasty-gram, which is the first time I've ever allowed myself to put any emotion into my dealing with them, and I let loose, coupled with the attorney's phone call that yes, there should have been a meeting already, it needed to be schedule ASAP, that most likely came in at about the same time, and caught someone's attention. The nasty-gram highlighted many of the things I have done over the past 3+ years that I didn't have to do in an attempt to help them help Wee - from things like testing him out of my own pocket, giving them full access and release to his docs and therapists, coordinating a visit to one of his docs for anyone on staff at school, to NEVER having to schedule an IEP meeting around me, even despite my accident, filling in for paras and teachers when someone was out, to even transporting him to and from school and not asking for a dime of reimbursement. It was a pretty lengthy list, and pointed out that my requests haven't changed much. Consistent people and planning ahead. This is the same request I've made since Wee started the early childhood program 6 years ago...to meet before school started so we could have a plan in place for him. And here we are, all this time later, my request was made in May, and it STILL hadn't happened. I have no idea if it was effective or not. I am pretty sure it caught sped dir's attention. And we now have a schedule and a plan. [/QUOTE]
