[QUOTE="Deni D, post: 760187, member: 22840"] Hi all, thanks for the reply's. There are things they can do, I'm have a small procedure done in a couple of weeks to see for one of my eyes. But it seems eventually I'll most likely be legally blind. I'll work through with Uber and sight aids, probably start having someone come clean my house at some point. I used to volunteer at place that supports blind people way back, there are many more supports out there these days. This is something that he seems to have more and more these days. The place where he is living was provided to him from a mental health organization, and he has a social worker from them too. He says he's not going to be kicked out of the place because it's for people with his same issues. I think it could be they might move him to a more restrictive living environment, but would be very surprised if they just put him out. He also has a guy who lives in the apartment house who looks over people. And I'm pretty certain the longer hospital stay has something to do with this organization being involved. He's now been in there over a week, and told me last night they are keeping him there for a bit longer. It's not by his choice, he said something to me about "getting in trouble" the other day. thank you, yes I realize this and am doing a couple of things, yoga, catching up with at least one person a day and not mentioning my son, and getting outside to get a bit done everyday. Right now it's kind of like I just feel like I'm pushing myself to do things I don't want to do but it is distracting, it will get better. Well hell, you always put things so clearly. It's what I think too about my relationship with my son, have for many years. Right now because he has no one else to call, that I know of, I answer the phone when he calls from the unit. I wonder if it does any good for him to at least know someone is there for him, or if it just works him up more and doesn't allow for his treatment to work. I'm pretty sure they hear him, and am counting on them to decide if they need to cut those calls off. Yeah, you put it much better, I'm been feeling like if I can't have a decent relationship with my son then maybe I really am so flawed I should be ashamed of myself. With all of the character assignation stuff he throws at me along with it I find myself digging deep to try to figure out what it is about me. You know the control thing, if it's something about me then I can do something about it. Need to just let that bit go though. [/QUOTE]
