[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 82073, member: 393"] NNT, I'm glad the appointment went well. I'm an epileptic & have taken lamictal & other types of medications that are commonly prescribed for mood stability. I take my medications (keppra, neurontin) twice a day; even though keppra is supposed to last all day it's been broken into 2 doses with no negative effects. As to bio mom - I wouldn't reassure difficult child the biomom does love her. Right now, she doesn't - the drug comes first. She's in love with her drug of choice & her child is the last thing on her mind. Even having been through rehab - given her hx - I assume that if biomom isn't using, she's either fighting a huge fight with her addiction, OR looking for a way to start up again. I've been through this with the tweedles. Our therapist was blunt when he told kt & wm that biomom loved her drugs before she loved them. While it was a horrid moment - it helped the tweedles to make sense of why a mother, who loved them, would allow them to be taken away; would allow & be involved in the abuse/neglect that the tweedles survived. Take this for what it is - a word of caution. Use it if you can. [/QUOTE]
