Guest guest Posted November 25, 2000 Report Share Posted November 25, 2000 OK Aisha, You want to hear a vent. Here's my debut vent for this list. I HATE HOT WEATHER!!!!!!!!! I live in the same state as Aisha and all of a sudden it's stinking HOT. ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!! Bring back the rain before I melt!!!!!!!!!LOL! Hope everyone is going ok. anne (who doesn't have ducted air conditioning and the weather man says it should reach 37 degrees celcius (close to 100) today!!!!! UGH!)I believe that friends are quiet angels who lift us to our feet when our wings have trouble remembering how to fly. Re: Brief update Thanks everyone for your love and support. Of course if I wasn't up till 4am I'd prolly get more sleep... lol... but hey I'm tough and I have made it this far so I am sure I will be fine. Hows everyone else doing?

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2000 Report Share Posted November 25, 2000 Aisha, " Hang in there " I know how you feel about Christmas stuff. My son had me outside in 20 degree tonite trying to get my Christmas spirit started by putting up some of my lights. I usually love Christmas with all the lights and all (I have thousands in my front yard and at least a 9 foot tree) but I'm just not into it. " Pink room " ?????????????? Pink, green and red ....................... I hope everything goes ok on Thursday--talk to you before then Love PS Give yourself some credit--any progress is progress and you are tough--if you weren't you wouldn't be around....

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2000 Report Share Posted November 27, 2000 How are you doing hon? Love Aisha Aisha, I'm not doing so good. Depression has decended on me like a big black cloud. I am feeling like such a failure. I went out Christmas shopping with my neighbour last Thursday. That was also the day I was supposed to get my agents commission for doing Chrisco hampers this year. Note SUPPOSED. It's Saturday now and I still haven't been paid. I was silly enought to rely on that Chrisco money to feed my family this week. I brought all the children's christmas presents and I can't feed my family. I feel like such an irresponsible loser. I can't even get help from St. Vinnies as they're not opened today. I have a son with OCD and he's going to FREAK when we completely run out of food. I don't even have a cent to buy meat for dinner tonight or tomorrow. I just want to die. These kids deserve better than this. How could I be so gullible. Chrisco never kept their word and I can't contact them until Monday. God! All I need is enough meat, potatoes, mild and bread to get through the weekend and I can' even do THAT! I'm no use to anyone. anne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2000 Report Share Posted November 29, 2000 *holds hand up to be the next to vent....* OOOhhhh, hon, you asked for it!!! *giggles* Where to even begin?? Let's see.... Ok, first, Gracie was evaluated and put into a pre-school for " developmental delays " . I don't mind about that, I knew that her development, particularly gross motor and speech, was behind. I didn't realize how much (gross motor skills average 12 months behind), but I knew that she was not picking up the skills that she should be, and I'm glad that she's going to be getting the help she needs. BUT.... I had to tell her dad and his mom. Hence, the bullshit. Her dad says that I'm being silly, and that I shouldn't put her in the preschool or see any more doctors until there is " a serious indication that she has problems " (those are his words, not mine) UMMMM....excuse me?? Is it not enough of a problem that she has fallen a full year behind her peers already?? Is it not enough of a problem that 3 different therapists, in 3 different settings, have all judged Gracie to have inadequate muscle tone? Is it not enough that her legs don't work right, she can't breath or eat right, she can't speak understandably?? How much is a " serious " indication?? He's so stupid, I just want to slap him!! THEN...his mom started in on me. She wanted to know what kind of kids are in the class that Gracie is going to be in. She doesn't think that Gracie needs to go to school with a " bunch of retarded kids " (again, her words, not mine!) First of all, people don't even use the word " retarded " anymore!!!! Second, I don't really care what " kind " of kids are in the class. It's none of my business what the other kids' are diagnosed with. We've all (myself, the school psychologist, her teacher, and the therapists) agreed that we need to closely watch Gracie to make sure that the environment doesn't become too restrictive for her. No one is positive that this is the best placement for her. But going by her testing scores, it appears that it is best for her right now. And that's all that I'm concerned with. Grandma is also concerned that Gracie will have to ride a school bus to school. Well, excuse the hell out of me, but I can't be in 3 places at once. I can't be in class where I'm supposed to be, and be at her school, too, and in the afternoons when she gets home, I can't be at her school to pick her up and still be at home for my older daughter to get home, too. So yes, Gracie is going to have to ride the bus. I know she's young, but I'm only one person and I can only do so much by myself. I'm just so damn tired of having them leave all the decisions to me, and then bitch cuz they don't like how I handle things. Too fucking bad, ya know?? Gracie's dad isn't paying his child support again, and I doubt that he will, since he goes to court this Friday (1st) for sentencing. He was convicted in October of felony DUI (it was his 2nd in 5 years in this state, and he had 1 more in another state). I have no idea how long he'll be in jail (and don't really care, since he got what i wanted, the felony, now he is a convicted felon and can never even try to take custody of Gracie), but I won't get any child support during that time. *GROWL* On top of all that shit, my school has really messed things up! They took so long to score our entrance exams for nursing school that we aren't eligible to start this coming semester (in January). Not only that, but they won't let you start summer semester, either. So it is going to be next August before I can start in the nursing program. *HUGE GROWL* To make it worse, they won't even let you take nursing specific classes until you are officially in the program, and I've already taken almost all of my prereqs. I only have 2 more prereqs to take, so this next semester, I'll be finishing up my prereqs, and taking 2 courses that don't apply to my major, and come summer term, I will have absolutely NO classes to take that will apply. I'm so mad!! But I can't just not go, because that will mess up my financial aid and I can't be sure that I would get it back. So I'm stuck. I'm going to look into the other college that is here in town and see if they can do anything else for me, and maybe transfer if it will be better. SOOOO.... There's my vent Thanks for listening. *hugs* to everyone Aisha Elderwyn wrote: > Thanks everyone for your love and support.

He's so stupid, I just want to slaphim!!" *hands you a week old dead trout* "THEN...his mom started in on me. <snip> I'm just so damn tired of having them leave all the decisions to me, and then bitch cuz they don't like how I handle things. Too fucking bad, ya know??" yep - nothing stopping them from helping is here? "On top of all that shit, my school has really messed things up! Theytook so long to score our entrance exams for nursing school that wearen't eligible to start this coming semester (in January). Not onlythat, but they won't let you start summer semester, either. So it isgoing to be next August before I can start in the nursing program" Thats just stupid... beurocrats always seem to find the most stupidist way to run things. "SOOOO.... There's my vent :)" *holds up a 9.98 score card* Don't give up babe, its just a hiccup - everything will work out as it is meant to. Love ya honey *hugs and coffee to you* *SCREAMS* >>>> Will the next ventor please take the soap box<<<< *grins* Love Aisha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 30, 2000 Report Share Posted November 30, 2000 AFter 14 years, my mom still tells me that if I had not given my sons extra therapy and put them in special education, they would be "normal" now. I see what has happened to some of the kids with autism and similar issues, whose parents did not follow through on extra help for them. My sons are doing wonderfully and I just wish I could do more for them. One of our preschools has "reverse mainstreaming", where typical kids are placed in the special education classroom. The typical kids blossom from the extra attention, services and educational toys. They do not pick up disorders.

Let's see....Ok, first, Gracie was evaluated and put into a pre-school for"developmental delays". I don't mind about that, I knew that herdevelopment, particularly gross motor and speech, was behind. I didn'trealize how much (gross motor skills average 12 months behind), but Iknew that she was not picking up the skills that she should be, and I'mglad that she's going to be getting the help she needs.BUT....I had to tell her dad and his mom. Hence, the bullshit.Her dad says that I'm being silly, and that I shouldn't put her in thepreschool or see any more doctors until there is "a serious indicationthat she has problems" (those are his words, not mine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2000 Report Share Posted December 7, 2000 Ish, (Previously during bendy wendy's vent...) **Persist in saying this, and you will go back to being butt girl!! LMAO nothing stopping them from helping is here? **Nope, absolutely nothing. Her dad just thinks that since I got full custody of Gracie in the divorce, that all of this is my responsibility, that his only contribution is paying support. *hugs and coffee to you* **WOOO HOOOOO!! You sure do know how to bribe me!! My two favorite things. Thanks for caring, hon.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Saw my local " fam doc " today. After much squabbling (which I've never done with a doctor before), he made a referral to a back doctor that's about 45 mins away. He felt the need to tell me that traveling that far for surgery was ridiculous, and that ordering an MRI on someone with hardware was worthless. Keep in mind, this doc has never even seen my xrays. I won't go on...... Anyway, the good news is that I am one step closer to finding a revision surgeon. My next appt. is in 2 wks.....which I'm sure will seem like 2 months! I pray that this next doc will be willing to follow my case, or that he knows someone who will. That's all folks, camille Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
