[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 315689, member: 6546"] Linda-- I have been thinking along the same lines as Janet--it is, after all, just a number. It's not a predictor of the future....and with the right supports and a loving family, she could be fine. It also seems to me that my difficult child was assigned a GAF of 38 when she was admitted to psychiatric hospital last week. At the time, I didn't understand what they meant when they were talking about the numbers....but there had been a comment made that the number was sufficient for hospitalization. Perhaps your daughter's progress MUST be noted in a certain way to justify continued in-patient treatment? Maybe it has to do more with billing and insurance purposes than an actual measure of progress? Hope you are feeling more hopeful today.... --DaisyFace [/QUOTE]
