[QUOTE="Fran, post: 189239, member: 3"] Thinking of you this morning. I know those hour visits are shockingly short but he is engaged through out the day and evening. If this is any consolation, the second admit, difficult child was in a downward spiral and didn't want to go to school. Again. I gave him a choice of hospital or school. He chose hospital so off we went. About 4 hrs later there is a message on my phone. It is difficult child in a whisper saying "mom, I think I made a big mistake". Part of me was sad but part of me had a sense of satisfaction that he got his wish. Try to remember that this isn't jail and it isn't punishment. It's the painful needs of your son and easy child that you go through this sacrifice. Take it one day at a time. It is exhausting but take this time to rest up. It's your chance to regroup and recharge. Spend lots of time with easy child. Hugs [/QUOTE]
