[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 225745, member: 1233"] Shawna, please don't worry about taking over the board. We are all here for you, and it is OK to come here to cry, scream, vent, curl into a ball and bawl, whatever. I think the idea of going to the gathering late, after having your sister explain to everyone that you can't handle questions but want to come and enjoy what you can at this time, is a very good idea. I think int might help you to realize the support your family has - and if your sister can say to them that hugs are ok, as are tissues if you start to cry, and shoulders are certainly welcome, well, it might help your family have some idea how to comfort you. They are very worried about YOU, as well as your difficult child. But if you need to stay home with your husband, or even alone, then do what you need. You will make it a special Christmas for your son, because that is what we warrior moms do. I am so very sorry you are in this hell, and if there was a way to help you out of it, we would. Post as often and as long as you need or want to. IF you just want support, say so. If you just want someone to hear you vent, say so. If it is a bad time for ideas or suggestions, say so. We will do our best to support you however we can. Sending very gentle hugs. [/QUOTE]
