Do the happy dance with me...My son is home
Six days in the hospital adjusting his meds, and I have a much happier child now.

7. The bouncy alien is definitely appropriate
He's an ADHD, Aspie kid. The weather is actually nice here...it's not 115 outside, so the kids could go out and play. He is now a happy child.

10. I am SO GLAD my dear Not_Giving_Up.......
Finally something good is really coming your way...and for your son as well......

I remember how frustrated I felt at your sorrow when you posted about him before....

Nothing tangible I could do......but happiness is easily transmitted across the wonderful net........

I'm so happy that things have gotten worked out and that you and your son are well and happy again......


:loveya: :hug: :pals:

12. They backed him down off of half of the meds he was on
He was having problems before all of those meds, but they obviously weren't working. He's on a new one now, but it seems to be doing the job. I hated to admit him to the hospital, but it had gotten to a point where I had no choice.

16. Homecomings are awesome!!
I saw him Monday, and he was begging me to take him home with me. I explained that he wasn't coming home until the doctor was sure the meds were right. He was very glad to be home yesterday.

20. I was at the game on Sunday
With my daughter, liberallady, and her two kids. My son would have been there, but he had to miss it. Last night did not leave me dancing though.

23. Well, your friends don't dance
Edited on Fri Oct-07-05 12:22 PM by Not_Giving_Up
And if they don't dance, then they're no friends of mine.

30. You're right, although I meant the 'you' to be plural
and include both of you.
