[QUOTE="kwioake, post: 507866, member: 13579"] Thank you so much for all your support. I wish we could bring one of you to these meetings. Well, my husband left the meeting feeling somewhat positive. He was given a contact person at MHMR and told that MHMR would require further testing but that they do have resources. Then, he talked to the contact person. That person said (I would think I was making this up if it wasn't happening to me) that there is a....TEN YEAR WAITING LIST for services.. My husband has an appointment next week to do the paperwork to get the ball rolling...The respite services is a once a month outing. We had hired a lawyer who was supposed to be talking to the prosecutor...My husband initially got with her weeks ago. At first, she was waiting the official diagnosis but its been at least a week and we've heard nothing. There was a representative at this meeting from Child Protective Services. When we called to report her, we were given a case number but the representative said that she is not even in their computer. My husband feels so deflated...I think we need some kind of advocate but don't even know how to go about finding someone. We are going Friday to visit my daughter (only the second time in five weeks) and it is a five hours drive each way. I am planning on making a lot of phone calls (can't ever make calls during the day with my job)....Thank again everyone for your supportive words and thoughts. [/QUOTE]
