[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 527635, member: 3388"] Marg, I need to stop and catch my breath after reading about what you've been through! in my humble opinion, there are many things wrong with our health care system but I guess, in some ways, we're fortunate. From personal experience, we don't have to go through the all the red tape, total "garbage," that you do in order to get prescriptions refilled. Yes, we have our share of incompetent doctors, but, I've never heard of one story even remotely similar to the problems you've been facing just to get prescriptions refilled! It infuriates me because if the prescriptions were for physical illnesses, I highly doubt you would have been treated like this!! I'm sorry to hear that difficult child 3 is struggling so much... My mind is a bit foggy these days, (too much on my plate but different kinds of issues from yours) but if I remember correctly, difficult child 3 loves computers. Now I know his situation is very different from that of my oldest, difficult child 1, but a very wise therapist once told us when difficult child 1 was struggling in school, that we should encourage his obsession with computers, that this would be his ticket to a successful adult life. difficult child 1 did end up graduating from a junior college but only because we kept reminding him that a diploma, just a piece of paper as we had to repeatedly tell him, was going to be the key to unlocking a world of possibilities... difficult child 1 put everything he had into his computer courses and barely scraped by in some of his other classes. In the long run, this didn't matter. To make a long story short, to this day, difficult child 1 has managed to turn his obsession into a job he loves and is happier then he's ever been. However, as it is with difficult children, you never know what lies ahead... Keeping my fingers crossed he continues to do well... I'm getting off topic! Sorry!! Back to difficult child 3. If he loves computers, can he go to some sort of technical school, training program, to get a job working with them even if he doesn't have a diploma? If I'm wrong about the computers, maybe whatever it is that excites him, that he is passionate about, can be his ticket to happiness. Just my two cents...
