[QUOTE="Fran, post: 456755, member: 3"] Find some sort of respite weekend/guardian. Maybe the family that did respite could do so privately for you. In times like this difficult child's needs are not the priority. He can not ruin things for husband, easy child or the rest of the family just because he wants to go. It is important for husband and the other siblings to have their focus on their mother and their own grief and not have difficult child be disruptive. It's not fair to you that you can't grieve. Everything is not about difficult child. There are some pivotal points in a families life that are important. You can't expect him to act differently. It is an unreal expectation. He can go to the cemetary or grandmother's at a later date for him to say good bye. Hugs to you and husband. It's always difficult to say good bye to a parent. [/QUOTE]
