[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 392658, member: 3444"] Well, it didn't really work. Despite ignoring his texts, the nurse called me at 12:10pm to say he'd been laying in the health office for about a half hour and she asked me what I wanted to do. I explained my "plan" and asked her to tell him I still couldn't come right away and that I wanted him to try to go to his 5th period class after lunch. About another 1/2 hour later he called this time, telling me he just couldn't do it. So I told him the plumbers still weren't at our house yet but would be any minute (which was true) and that I couldn't come just yet. I told him I wanted him to at least go to his 5th period class to get the assignments he missed plus today's homework and then I'd come get him. So he did manage to go to class for 5 minutes and get the information he needed and then I picked him up. All told, he made it to 2.5 classes out of 5 today. :( Our psychiatrist finally called in the clonidine rx so I am very excited about trying it tonight to see if it will help his pain tomorrow!!!
