Ok, not sure how many are still around to read these ramblings but I am back. Hopefully for a little more regular installment plan. Anyway there is so very much that has happened in the past couple of months that it is hard to know where to start.
1) Our biggest news is that we are no longer in Wisconsin. I fear I have left my home for what looks like the final time. Maybe someday when I am rich and famous I will be able to retire there but for now I am with my family in Missouri. Don't get me wrong Missouri is a beautiful state but it is no Wisconsin. Wisconsin was my home and will always in my heart remain my home. The children are having understandably mixed reactions as we prepare them for the start of School in a few days.
2) I had the wonderful privledge of experiencing the services of Missouri's Division of Family Services. Someone did me the dubious honor of filing a false child molestation report against me and my son. The charges have been dropped but let me tell you whoever said a person was presumed inocent until proven guilty never had to face the police on these kinds of charges. It is over now (at least I hope it is) and life can resume some normalcy.
3) Medications. While I was doing fairly stable on my new medication regime I am now at the mercy of a different insurance. Over $100.00 a month for my medications and that is even leaving one off the list. Some have said I should be lucky that it is only $100.00 a month but that is still expensive and I am not sure how we can afford it. Not when You figure that we will have to add my wifes medication to that ammount to and that stands to be at least as expensive as mine. Right now I have been off my medications for several weeks and I can sure feel the difference.
4) My dear son is back in the hospital. They have taken him off his lithium and put him on a anti-depresent. He is on a stimulant in the morning for his ADHD, and an anti-depresent at night. This seems a little scary to me as he no longer has a mood stabalizer and he is on two medications to elivate his mood. Saw him in the hospital and he is noteably upset. He just appeared angry and had a chip on his shoulders. The hospital lost a pair of his pants and he is mad about that. I had to repeat several times for him to quit yelling at me as he was talking about the incident. We have an appointment with the family councilor on Thursday so hopefully we can get some answers.
Well those are the four major events in my life at the moment and I will try to keep you updated on a little more regular basis.
