[QUOTE="mazdamama, post: 441280, member: 12227"] I have informed the pedi about the situation with both boys and who their doctors are and what their medications are. Both boys have therapist that are overseen by psychiatrists and Daniel has a caseworker. David will now have a case manager with the release I signed. David was originally diagnosis'd by a developmental/behavioral specialist who followed him for a few years. Being developmentally delayed the problems he has have been delayed and now mental health is rearing it's head big time. Daniel was diagnosis'd originally by a psychologist and then a psychiatrist verified all the same diagnosis's. And yes, both boys are adopted and are biological brothers. I [I]was[/I] their paternal grandmother but have always been their Mommy....legally been their Mommy since 2004. My son and his wife lived with me from the time Daniel was 10 wks old and she was already pregnant with David. She was Borderline (BPD) along with other mental health issues and had been adopted herself by a couple that tried to put a square peg in a round hole...she was abused for her behaviors. Both she and my son called me Mom and Daniel thought it was my name. David was too busy surviving once he was born as she attempted suicide at 26 wks gestation with alot of neurological medications. Daniel, well, she held his head under the water in the bathtub. She attempted suicide again in my home and I told my son she could not come back after her hospital stay. He said he would find an apt for the four of them and I called DCF. They had a choice of giving me custody or the boys going in foster care...they chose me. This was in 2002 and she left the area in 2003 and my son divorced her. She wanted out of child support and I told her only way out was for me to adopt and she said "send me the papers". I became a widow when Daniel was 6 mos old. I am a 58 yr old disabled nurse and it is me and the boys. My son lives locally but does not play a big role in the boys' lives...more of a big brother they see once in awhile. He has a daughter with a woman that is a few french fries short of a small order. We got word that bio mom of the boys finally got what she wanted.....poured charcoal lighter fluid on herself and lit herself off two yrs ago. Spent 3 mos in a burn unit before passing. Daniel's remark on hearing she was dead "Well at least she cannot try to drown little kids anymore". [/QUOTE]
