Stress – the impact on life

I find that the stress is getting to me. I am losing weight, in part because of the stress.  My Lupus is active, something I strive to put at rest so that I can live as full a life as possible.  When my Lupus is active, I lose weight.  The Lupus causes all manner of issues with my health. I am not sleeping at night as well as I should be.  The difficulty comes from not being able to turn off my brain.  From constantly wondering “what happens next?” I am not up for any parent of the year awards, but I know darn well that I am not the world’s worst parent either.  I am struggling to understand why these things are happening to us.

Meeting with CPS investigator

I am under investigation again. For using pressure point holds on my son when I feel that he is a danger to himself or others.

about the blog and other allegations

Just got a phone call from Social Services/Child Protective Services again.  We would like to talk about your blog and other allegations. I feel like I am being harassed. These people don’t understand that, without the blog, he wouldn’t be getting the care he needs in any facility.  How hard is it to understand that? Other allegations?  I can only imagine that they mean the allegation that I pressed his face into the sidewalk.  Which the deputy sheriff who responded that last day David was home can attest to.  It didn’t happen. There is no sidewalk. David didn’t have one mark on him. Seriously people.  Want to me to do a what if list of the things that have been done incorrectly this year alone by the state?  I mean seriously. I think that it is time to get an attorney.
