[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 22072, member: 1991"] I'm so glad you found everything. A recommendation that works for us - because it's a problem when every new doctor you go to wants copies of things like this, I now make them do their own copies while I wait. I have two copies of everything, where possible - one lot is in the fling cabinet at home, the other lot in a travelling folder. But if I give away anything in the travelling folder this means I need to get one of MY precious copies out of the filing cabinet and take it somewhere to copy it - risky. So the doctor can spare the electricity and paper to make his own copy. Something else we've done - we scanned as much of this onto the computer. At a pinch we can email the scans, although it's easier to just print them off. it means I'm a bit freer with handing out copies, although I still avoid handling the originals. difficult child 3's school files - I was given them from the local school to deliver to the highway school. I had to put them into one of my carry bags to do this, there's a lot of paperwork. I didn't have time to go through with a red pen like Janet. I asked them to give me my carry bag back as soon as they had read and filed his paperwork. Then, when difficult child 3 left the highway school to transfer to correspondence, I was given the same carry bag back, with the files apparently unread and untouched. So now I know exactly where it all is - sitting beside my piano. I would need an entire filing cabinet if I took them out of the carry bag! But I AM going to enjoy reading through it all when I get to that stage. 20:20 hindsight is a wonderful thing. Marg [/QUOTE]
