Update from April 28 post

1. Emilee never went to psych hospital.

2. Hubby and I start marriage counseling tomorrow. Maybe we can work things out afterall??? He has learned that I mean business when it comes to emotional abuse.

3. We were notified tonight (after JP was in bed) that he will be having his first visit with his PATH home tomorrow night thru Sat evening. Hubby gets to give JP the "good" news in the morning and then drop him off at school. I will be calling transport sw and letting her know where to get his overnight bag at. I will also let her know how "happy" we are that we were given so much notice for this visit. Considering I called 2 weeks ago asking to have him moved and we have heard NOTHING from ANYONE since then. Now we get less than 10 hrs notice to have a bag packed. They are moving him to the PATH home so he and Emilee can be together. There was a message on our machine tonight when Hubby and JP got home and JP asked what it was all about. Hubby told him that it sounded like he would be moving to live with Emilee and JP started crying. He said "Emilee is mean to me and hurts me, daddy. I don't want to live with her". Hubby told him that mommy would call the sw and find out what was going on and he and Hubby would talk about it in the morning. Poor guy. I'm FURIOUS with the system. I know I called asking for him to be moved, but things are different now. Not that I don't think it may be in Hubby and I's best interest to focus on US for a while, I don't agree with putting JP and Emilee in the same home. He has come so far in the month or so since Emilee was moved that I know he is just going to get set back further and further. He's the one who will suffer the most thru this and it's not fair. The sw said, "The state requires us to keep siblings together". Ummmm so when one sibling is abusive towards another...you need to keep them together???? Whatever. I give up.

Still here

I'm still in treatment. Not much to report. I feel so "out of the loop" as I haven't read ANYONE'S blog in FOREVER!!!!

I'll write soon...I promise!

Lots to update on

1. Neglect charges dropped (from what I understand from a third party...still no word directly from CPS)

2. Emilee goes to psych hospital (not the same on as before) on Wed. They finally called Hubby today and asked when they could get her stuff. Ummmm where have you been for 4 weeks????

3. I will be calling tomorrow to have JP removed from our home also. Why prolong it to the end of the school year???

4. Hubby and I are going to separate! :-(

5. LIFE SUCKS!!!

It's been a while

Sorry it's been so long. If you are keeping up with the caring bridge site, you will know that life hasn't been easy the past couple of weeks.

Emilee is gone. JP is still here for the time being. A final decision will be made next Friday whether he stays or goes. Emilee cried child abuse again. It's a long story that I dont' want to get into now. Just keep us in your prayers for the next week. I'm sooooo ready to be done with foster care. I can't take too much more of this. Plus, they want a letter from my doctor saying that I am a fit parent! Give me a break!

I gotta run and shower...mom and dad are coming to get me for a pass for supper later this afternoon. Hope all is well with everyone. I feel so lost as I have not been to ANYONE'S blog in FOREVER.

I'm surviving

Inpatient isn't all that bad. It's not all that good either, but not so bad. I am making some improvements in my thoughts/feelings and that is helping with refeeding. Check the caring bridge site for more info.

Treatment

Well I'm going to inpatient effective tomorrow. Life sucks right now.

Still here

I'm still here. Emilee is living with a family in the same town as her school! Now where was this family when we needed respite??? I'm sooooo pissed at the system but I also just don't care anymore. JP is my focus.

I gotta get upstairs for treatment but wanted to say Hi to everyone.

Mary - I'll call you tonight and hopefully we can meet mid morning tomorrow????
