[QUOTE="Transparent, post: 454686, member: 6498"] Thank you. Doing "ok" as far as we know. I'll have a PET scan next month to make sure there isn't any metastatic activity. I'll have to be scanned yearly and see my oncologist every 3 months for blood work, tumor markers, etc. I told difficult child that one more violent outburst and the authorities would be involved. He doesn't listen to me, he doesn't listen to husband, he does whatever he wants to do - so, he can try and pull that **** with the cops because this mama isn't going to tolerate it, in any capacity, any more. He's been in psychiatric hospital on numerous occasions. Haldol is NOT a bi-polar medication, it's an anti psychotic. The words we get from his psychiatric and psychologist are that he's too young to be given a specific diagnosis. They don't want to "label" him. I'm starting to wonder just how old does he have to be or what does he have to do before SOMEONE wakes up and tells us what's going on with him? We're hoping for something a bit more definitive with the second opinions. I keep in contact with his counselor and teachers at school and always let them know when he has his outbursts at home. Sometimes he will transfer his behaviors at school and sometimes his behaviors at school transfer at home. Usually only when he knows he's been caught though. Otherwise, he had "a good day" at school. Know what I mean?? husband doesn't let difficult child get away with things, but he does handle things a bit softer than I do. However, he won't undermine me. If I tell difficult child he's taking on certain punishments for certain behaviors, husband backs me up. With the iPod, you'd think 6 months of not having it would be enough to teach him a little respect for when he got it back. I knew it was going to bite me, but I was hopeful it wouldn't. husband thought for sure he'd learned his lesson. Didn't take difficult child long to prove husband wrong. husband is beside himself over it and just disgusted, really. It's not that he took $1 - we'd be just as angry if he'd taken $100. It's that he took that money from account that I use for the sales of jewelry I make. That money I use to pay my medical bills with. And difficult child had zero remorse. Ever. *cry* [/QUOTE]
