Hi everyone I just wanted to post an update. We didnt hospitalize N. When I called up to UCLA they told me they no longer have an inpatient program for little ones and they put them in with the adolescents. That cinched it for us.....I didnt want my baby in with older kids
I totally and completely lucked out though. I wound up getting an appointment with the head Dr. for the early childhood outpatient psychiatric program up at UCLA for this Thursday! The nurse told me not to be surprised if we have to wait for 2 hours....I was like....listen, I've waited 4 years....what's 2 hours more...lol.
This week is also the first week where all the kiddos are home and it's already a HUGE problem.
N wants to play with my other son W (who is visually impaired and also has sensory issues, etc).....well when W says no, N FREAKS OUT and winds up clobbering W. I cant spend my summer playing referee again
I'm counting down to thurs and hoping this psychiatric can help us. Meanwhile, we go back this morning for possibly our final session with the psychologist who is doing the neuropsychologist evaluation on N. I'm hoping she'll give me some tips on surviving the summer....
Any advice from all of you that have been there done that? Thanks
