hi
had a call with-speech pathologist, difficult child's refeeding therapist this a.m. she and i spoke briefly about difficult child
she said i can't live with-you to get her to eat, so i think in my opinion your looking at another hospitalization for her. Yet i wanna see her one more time to give it closure before she goes.
she said in my opinion it's pyschological with-her, which i guess afterall thats' what eating disorder's are. i promised myself to give myself a reprieve over xmas, and difficult child just make sure to keep working with-her offering food and keep her hydrated so she doesnt' go back to e.r. and sit down monday and figure out what i'm truly going to do.
i thought for sure she'd eat last night her mind was redirected i had all the other kids here yet she didnt.
i guess at this point i'm feeling a bit disconnected today to be honest. sort of numb, cried for 5 minutes than i was like ok time to wrap gifts.
it's hard the thought of another one, i went thru hell with-first one and so did she. her mood's ok, usually really sad in a.m. and also at bedtime. her weights' going down super fast. we were at 111ish and now we hit 104 today.
hopefully the holidays wont' be stressful and it'll renew me somehow so i can do this again, yet this time it's a hard decision to be made. gotta sit with-paper and pen with pro's and con's . i think we're all nervous what if we go hours away to live in another state and that fails too.
the stress on this home due to it has been so tremendous unlike anything i've run across before.
just wanted to vent a bit and share
