[QUOTE="bran155, post: 188703"] Steely, Oh hun, I am so, so sorry!! I know I am so late in replying, my computer has been on the fritz again, so I haven't checked in since the day before yesterday. I thought about you all day yesterday and worried if you and your son were okay. I finally got on today and read your newest post, it broke my heart. I am so sorry you are going through all of this at once. Forget your boss, I know your job is important, but not as important as you and your son's safety. I feel for you, I can imagine how you must have felt in the bushes hiding from your child. How, scared, frustrated and overwhelmed you are. You absolutely did the right thing. He has to know that he cannot hit you, no matter what!!! I completely understand how you feel, hospitalization is a waste of time, I truly get that. But in this instance you did not have a choice. You did what you had to do to keep your son alive and you safe!!! I have been where you are too many times to count. I know all too well how overwhelmed and worn out you are. It gets so bad at times, we just cant understand how our bodies continue to work. Sometimes I feel like my heart will just give out, shoot sometimes I wish it would. It is hard to imagine a light at the end of this loooong, dark tunnel. But there just has to be one!!! There have been many, many nights I actually thought about taking an entire bottle of one of my daughters pills and ending it. The pain and frustration really gets to be too much at times. It seems everything we have done for our children has been to no avail. No matter how hard we fight for them nothing seems to change.
