[QUOTE="totoro, post: 24343, member: 3155"] I read about all of the situations those of you with older g'fg are in and I had to wake up real quickly... I knew in my heart that no amount of love could really help my daughter... I have been told by every professional she has seen. that she is pretty severe for a 5 yo, the only ones that they see worse are usually adopted. So I had to list the best case scenerio and worst case for her future and be very realistic... husband still didn't want to think like that and thought I was being negative. I told him that I was not being negative I was being realistic and preparing for our daughter's future... I am positive from day to day but reality is always there... Who knows we may get lucky and not have to face many of the painful choices you have had to on this board... but I am not going to bet on it. Timerlady I think this is an important topic I am sure there are many lurkers and members here who judge us all everyday, from the medications to placement etc. It does need to be said on occasion... I have learned a great deal from your pain and suffering, which is not fair, but it will help me in my journey... I have hope for all of us to be more understanding... [/QUOTE]
