[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 638618, member: 13882"] Kathy, I'm so sorry this is ratcheting up. I hope the therapist is able to speak with her, I know how worried you must feel right now. From your post it seems like difficult child is saying desperate things, is in a horrible situation, but when the therapist offered to drive 1 hr. to see her, she said her phone was running out of juice. Then husband called the next A.M., and she had managed to charge it. Also, you know she's been getting Xanax. I think husband was on the money that he wouldn't continue the conversation unless she contacted the therapist. I think it's true that difficult child is in a bad, horrible situation, but she's also resourceful and has been quite manipulative all along. My guess is she's going to magnify the drama until you do things her way. I hope I'm wrong, but that's kind of the way difficult child is hard wired. Many, many hugs to you and husband for continued strength and grace under pressure. Take a breath. You are not being unreasonable. [/QUOTE]
