[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 506351, member: 1991"] Sharon, I hope boot camp doesn't do any harm, after how you were feeling a few days ago. I had a busy day today. Early start getting difficult child 3 out the door with husband, although he's been cooperative about getting moving. Then I went out to fetch difficult child 3 at lunchtime. Meanwhile easy child 2/difficult child 2 had asked me to come with her to the first appointment with her new psychiatrist - having turned 25, she can no longer get her medications from the pediatrician. difficult child 3 wanted to get home so I gritted my teeth and did a double lot of driving - I drove difficult child 3 home then came back out to meet up with easy child 2/difficult child 2. 40 minutes each way, plus the drive to the specialist from easy child 2/difficult child 2's place. The new doctor is very good, but is adamant that there's no sign of Asperger's. She is insistent that easy child 2/difficult child 2 be assessed for bipolar. An interesting development. We go back to the shrink next week at which point I have been asked to dig out old assessments, reports etc. Possibly some old drawings easy child 2/difficult child 2 did when very young - they were very unusual for a pre-schooler. easy child 2/difficult child 2 also has to book in for a neuropsychologist assessment because the doctor is concerned about cognitive function issues, especially frontal lobe. I've been concerned for years but never got any answers other than "ADD inattentive type, with some Asperger's traits". I was planning on driving to Canberra tomorrow (coming back on Sunday) to see easy child and family, but the weather on the eastern seaboard has deteriorated (if possible) and flood warnings have spread down from Queensland down the interior of NSW. There are also massive storm warnings out for tomorrow coupled with the flood warnings, right where I am heading. Or was. It also means that husband's plans for his work on the weekend have just been ruined, so he may as well come with me. So we're going on Saturday now, just for overnight. Not a lot of time to do much, but it will be something. So I get to stay home tomorrow after all, get some work done. difficult child 3 has an appointment on Friday which I can now take him to (I was going to cancel it in the morning). Life certainly is interesting! Marg [/QUOTE]
