[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 52237, member: 2894"] They're keeping M until Monday. As soon as they said that my anxiety level dropped! Rather than set him up for the weekend at home, they wanted to keep him inpatient. PHEW! The SW from his old school drove in and was an invaluable asset at the meeting...other than me, she's the only other one that truly *knows* M. I'm so happy she came. We also had the SW from his new school on the phone, which was great- she's wonderful as well (too bad she's only a fill-in for someone who's on maternity leave). Then there was also the psychiatric hospital SW and the psychiatrist sat in for a bit as well. psychiatrist is switching out the Straterra (finally) and bringing in Tenex to help with his impulsivity and to keep him from "boiling over" when he gets angry. Somehow SW from old school has a way with M and she talked to him about going to the new school and how there are some other kids there from his old school and how both schools work together and how we're all on the same team...the "M Team" (and I joked about how I liked that and I wanted to have shirts made LOL) and M smiled (though he tried not to!) and she asked him how the plan sounded and he said it sounded....are you ready....GOOD! So, as of right now, M is staying put until Monday "until his new medication starts to work" (gotta love that placebo effect) and then his SW from the old school and I are going to pick him up and take him to his new school :::fingers crossed::: M is the master of telling you what you want to hear if he's in the mood to do so, we'll see how Monday *really* goes...but right now I'm going to take a trip to the State of Denial. LOL Oh...and the idea of him going to both schools in one day was thrown out...too many mixed signals. And, I was so in shock from M suddenly agreeing to go to the new school and just so overwhelmed that I completely forgot to ask about the neuropsychologist. Ugh. This is how scattered my brain is. And I even brought it up with the school SW as we sat outside in the hallway waiting for our meeting! I swear I should be covered in Post-It Notes! [/QUOTE]
