[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 129230, member: 1233"] Totoro, I am so sorry that things were hard with your in-laws. I hope that you can, in time, find a way to let mother in law's caustic nature just roll off your back. It is REALLY hard to do though. I think you made a lot of progress this visit - with all the things falling into place. Montessori schools are wonderful, in my opinion. My difficult child was in a school starting to become accredited as a Montessori when he 1st went into daycare. It was an amazing experience. I think both girls would bloom and grow there. I think touching base with the author is wonderful. And finding a new psychiatrist who believes in bipolar (isn't this kind of like believing in chocolate - it just is), and an educational advocate, and poss some homes, so much progress. It must be so hard to be manic and thrust into that situation. And I KNOW it is hard to leave your kids in a situation where the adults are not able?? willing?? going to focus on them at least enough so you can feel safe about them, well, as a MOM it is terribly bad feeling. Maybe your husband was feeling a lot of pressure from his mom and dad?? Soemtimes we don't know what our in-laws are saying to our spouses when we are not there. Or the backstory of what they say when we are there. I think maybe this is something to talk to husband about?? If his mom was that rude/mean/witchy to YOU, how was she to HIM?? Again, been there done that with the in-laws. At least you have had a lot of testing done. This can be taken to any psychiatrist. Or other specialist. Have you already requested records? Not sure how you take info from doctor to doctor, but if you don't have it organized, there is a Parent Report outline in the General Archives Forum. It is on the last page, very bottom. Personally, it made a big difference when I walked into IEP's, new docs, old docs, whoever with my 3 ring binder, my report, and copies of whatever info I wanted to share (whole thing with docs, much less with schools). I even had a picture of son on front cover AND on each the beginning of each section. So the whomever never forgot who MY Gift from God was. Anyway, you are probably already organized, but it might help. Sending hugs and hopes for less cycling for mommy and K, and for N and husband to settle back into the routine for a while. Susie ps. Happy Valentines day! [/QUOTE]
