[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 315535, member: 393"] [SIZE=3][FONT=Comic Sans MS]I'm sorry I didn't explain GAF scores. Fran, JJJ ~ nope not what I expected when husband & I adopted the twins. Not at all. I've been looking into long term adult homes for wm; keeping my fingers crossed that kt can become more functional. Be that as it may, I met with kt's psychiatrist today. Discussing her progress in this stay. Discussing discharge date (end of January 2010). AND making kt aware that if she gets to the point where she is physically aggressive with me again she will not be able to live here. I think those words, delivered very gently by myself, really hit kt between the eyes. psychiatrist supported & helped kt understand both her bipolar & her mood disregulation; the impact it has on her & others around her. He also said that she is learning skills at a rate that is impressive to him. He cautioned her that she needs to be hyper aware of her body, her emotions & such. kt is motivated to come home & is working hard after her last run from Residential Treatment Center (RTC). AND she is reading college level books; currently she's reading Ernest Hemingway's A Call to Arms. Thank you for listening to my rambles & concerns. [/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
