[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 706980, member: 18958"] KSM. My son has been in and out of hospitals, hospital-diversion, and treatment centers. Until a year ago they were all public or contracted with Departments of Mental Health in different counties, because he was homeless or near-homeless and without resources. We began utilizing insurance-based services a year ago, where he could access a so-called higher grade of facility. They vary greatly and even the same corporate structure can have a facility that is excellent, and one that is marginal. The last thing I would concern myself with is reviews. There are consequences for actions, for situations. That are absolutely called for. When we lose our capacity to choose among a variety of options on a spectrum of choices. This is one of them. When choice becomes a luxury. We enter the realm of necessity. I am thinking here of refugees, because they are so much in the news. Nobody wants to leave their homes, their business, their friends, their neighborhoods and cities. There are communities of my faith, for instance, in Syria and North Africa that are centuries and centuries old, that cannot ever be replicated. That what is lost, what is left disappears and cannot be reconstructed ever, for either the individual or the group. I know I sound dramatic here, but when we come here to CD we are that desperate. It is not just that we cannot cope with our children, but that the thread of our lives has been unwoven and is tearing. We feel that we are torn up into pieces. And we are. So I am urging you here, and whoever may read this to see yourselves as refugees. To seek refuge. [/QUOTE]
