[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 310452, member: 3444"] Hopefully this will be good for him and they can get his medications straightened out and he'll be feeling a whole lot better. I'm sure it's very upsetting for the kids, but they need to understand that dad's sick, and he's at the hospital where they can help him get better. It's no different than if he'd had gallstones or pneumonia. It just happens to be the organ in his skull that's messed up right now. Maybe the kids can pick out a special snack or some little care package to take to him tomorrow -- it might give them some sense of control over something and feel like they are helping in some small way. Hopefully husband doesn't feel any shame about this, either. Kids need to know that it's okay to need and accept help, especially in the face of mental illness. Hope the visit goes well tomorrow!
