[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 411995, member: 1514"] Tony and I would have handled Dude. Our motto has always been...we leave the light on and heck, whats one more? lol. I actually did take in a board members son for several months years ago when she needed emergency care for him. I dont know that I am as up for it today as I was then because my kids were still teens so I actually had kids his age to hang with. Now Im much older and more decrepit. LOL. My almost 5 year old wears me out. Tony and I struggled with the guardian thing when the boys were little. Obviously since the youngest two were ours biologically and Billy was mine with sole custody and his dad was nowhere to be found, there wasnt anyone. My mom would have taken Billy in a heartbeat but she wouldnt have touched the other two with a ten foot pole. My dad was a great Papa but he wasnt a hands on Papa. Especially with my stepmom in the picture. She isnt even one to have her own grandkids spend the night over at her house. She isnt me...she wouldnt have kids running around and jumping on the beds and laughing with sheer glee. Nope...not Pat...lol. I love it...now...lol. I couldnt think of anyone. I knew none of Tony's brothers or sister would take the boys and actually get them mental health treatment because they didnt believe in it. They thought we were nuts for drugging our boys. So no go there. I thought about asking Pats dtr but we just werent that close. So Tony and I just decided it wasnt an option to die. We had to live until the kids were grown. Simple as that. And we did. We both had scares quite soon after they were grown...lol. Tony had a small stroke in 07 and I had pneumococal meningitis in 08 but we both managed to recover. [/QUOTE]
