[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 93905, member: 1233"] Linda you are soooo NOT a loser. No one, anywhere, has done more for their kids than you!! NO ONE!!! I am so sorry you can visit wm, and that your husband is the one with the weekly visit duty. I know that if my family were in that situation, my husband would have a very hard time visiting weekly. He would resent the demands, the things difficult child would say, and the time spent visiting someone who didn't really want to see him. We have had to do this on a much shorter term basis and my husband was very resentful of all the time spent visiting someone who refused to behave. He coulc behave, he just wouldn't. That is straight from him and from every therapist who worked with him. He is 16 this month and will never live iwth me again. I mourn, as I know you must, but it is what is best for everyone. While in theory you might be "able" to be a full time mom right now, your body has had enough. Give it time to process everything. HEal your body, then worry about bringing wm home. Wm may want to come home, but he isn't ready. If he was ready you would not need support staff to visit him. I want you to have the Kodak moments, and a happy family, but most I want you to have a SAFE family. Hugs, Susie [/QUOTE]
