At the end of this school year, Kanga will have been at the current Residential Treatment Center (RTC) for two years. She would like to move to a more community based environment, her therapist supports this and so do we. So we are beginning the process of applications for other RTCs. We have found one that looks appropriate, so please keep your fingers crossed that they do find she is a match, that they will have a bed open this summer, and that we can get the educational piece in place (which involves two school districts working with the Residential Treatment Center (RTC)!), and that it is as good as it sounds.
Of course, my biggest worry is that she will be "great, wonderful" for them during her honeymoon and we will be back to having to attempt visits that we know she is not ready for in order to 'show' them that she cannot handle it.
