[QUOTE="Merris, post: 77273, member: 849"] Sorry I haven't been around for a while. difficult child is still in the hospital. Doing very well. This is not like the posh hospitals he is used to and he had a very hard time with the people there when he went in. There are some very mentally ill people there and he doesn't know how to deal with it. The REALLY good thing is that he's not "faking it till he makes it. He's being real and addressing his issues. He's going to NA (his choice) and he's hoping to make some positive friends there. He's still got issues, but who doesn't? I talked to the DMHAS person today and they are going to be sending him to a transitional program. It's pretty far from here but I think that is best. With all that is going on in my life right now, I am having a hard enough time taking care of myself and honestly, I don't WANT to take care of him anymore. He's almost 19. Almost. When he finishes the transitional program, he will be getting an apartment and they will do job training, etc. I'm still the "mommy" though because I am researching the law on hiring convicted felons, etc. He doesn't know I'm doing it, but I'm going to be prepared when I hear the "I can't find a job" whine. I moved this past weekend to a slum. Really, a slum. I live right outside a bar, there's a tattoo parlor downstairs and it's pretty rowdy around here. The cats are scared to death! [img]:smile:[/img] The closing on our house is tomorrow and H is off to the UK in a few weeks to be with his next wife. Number 3. Bizzare. He's just got to get rid of me first LOL! Just a little update. Things are starting to look up and we're working through the muck. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers, they seem to be working! Merris [/QUOTE]
