[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 553591, member: 1967"] Did she apologize? No, she said that she wouldn't do it again because of what it did to us but those are just empty words she thinks she should say. I would say she is more fascinated by it. She keeps asking for details of the event like how blue was blue when husband told her that her face and nails were blue. Or whether her eyes were open. She says that it hasn't hit her as if it was a big deal because she has no memory of it. difficult child describes it as if she took a nap. difficult child says that people that she has shared this with keep telling her that it wasn't her time and that she is here on earth for a reason. She said, "Now they expect me to cure cancer or something." I checked out the residential treatment center that Dr. Phil talks about and it looks wonderful. It costs $22,500 for just the first month. I told that to difficult child and she said that we would just be wasting our money because if wouldn't work if she didn't want to go. I also sent an email to a residential treatment center in Florida that her DBT therapist highly recommends and asked for the cost. They haven't emailed me back. difficult child seemed to like the sound of that one because it is on the beach. For the time being, we are working hard on getting difficult child on Abilify. I filled out the paperwork for low income people assistance and husband is taking it to her p-doctor himself. She is also going to see her DBT therapist twice a week while we try to figure this out. There is a IOP/PHP program in town that is over an hour away that the DBT therapist also recommends. It would be quite a drive if difficult child wanted to continue living at home. husband is supposed to be scheduling an assessment for difficult child. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
