Missing David. and frustrated

Posted on July 20, 2013July 20, 2013 by carl

RethinkMentalIllnesslogo250_250People frustrate me.  Not all people.  Just some.

Before David’s 12th birthday, we moved him, temporarily, to a different facility so that he could undergo a med wash.

All the reports I have received have been about how good a child he is, and how he listens.

That is great.  I am happy that they see how good he can be.  He is manipulating them.  I keep telling them, he is in the honeymoon phase.  When he gets everyone figured out, he will revert to the David we all know and love.

Don’t get me wrong, I love our son.  I miss him constantly.  I don’t miss the behaviors.  I don’t miss the fights, I don’t miss staying up for two days praying for him to fall asleep.  I don’t miss him abusing our animals.  I don’t miss having our other children lock themselves away in their bedrooms because they are afraid to come out.

Wake up people!… Be the professionals that you claim to be.

I can tell you until I am blue in the face that he is in the honeymoon phase.  Believe me.

On Monday, we have a staffing at the facility where David normally lives.  We are praying that they will accept him back when we get done with the med wash.
