Good Morning everyone :smile:
I worked for quite a while this weekend on retyping and updating difficult child's parent report. I realized that it was on my old computer and I didn't copy the word processing documents :crazy:
All this in prep for his evaluation/testing at the pediatric mood disorder clinic affiliated with our local teaching hospital/unniversity (I told them I had one and they asked that I bring it and a copy of his IEP). It's basically a multidisciplinary evaluation, and we are told we will be there between four and five hours. I've basically told difficult child that it is the same testing he had in third grade when he first got his IEP. We were originally scheduled to begin at 10, but got a call a couple weeks ago and they have moved us up to 8 am.
difficult child has been really sleeping in so far this summer so I've told him it's early to bed tonight.
So, as if that big long appointment wasn't enough, on Wednesday morning I take easy child in to have a biopsy on her scalp to get to the bottom of her hair loss issue (hopefully). On thursday difficult child has his quarterly appointment with his psychiatrist. On friday easy child has a 7:30 am appointment to get her wisdom teeth pulled!
It's tomorrow's appointment that I have been anticipating for several months. This clinic is in the top 10 in the country (and has a day program, Residential Treatment Center (RTC) program, educational services, and more). I'm hoping they can dwelve deep into difficult child. He has had some increased anxiety lately (which I know is not unusual with adhd). But something inside me has wondered for a couple years if difficult child had some mood issues. We'll see.
So, I'll be driving my kids around to docs this week! Wish me luck!
