[QUOTE="At a loss, post: 707359, member: 21381"] I have called and emailed at least 50 Psychiatrist and or treatment centers for a child whom I have guardianship of. We have been told play therapy is really all they can do for him now. He is violent and destructive at 4. every where we call has a 6 month waiting list ect. I am on all the lists and I have been for a few months. When I do get through to an actual provider they dont see children this young. Anyone else having this issue? The child is a brain cancer survivor and his father is incarcerated long term and his mom is a homeless drug offender. He has been with us for almost 2 1/2 years. We have helped him relearn to eat drink walk and talk post his original tumor resection. We took him out of town to a cancer hospital for 6 weeks for radiation, He has always been aggressive but he is getting more and more so. They want to put him inpatient. How would anyone leave a four year old with health and abandonment issues at an inpatient treatment facility? He has been in so many hospitals and he has never been in one alone. Help if you have any input on how to expedite treatment. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
