Hi Anita:

What town in Montana? My oldest brother used to work at a residential facility in Montana until he retired. He lives near Anaconda.

Hang in there.... we're here for you and we care.

Right now he is living in a residential facility in Montana some 20 hours from home, but for us it was the best decision we could have made, and we are hopeful that he will be coming home next summer. He has certainly grown alot and is begining to learn some important life skills. But it is hard, and harder when you have an illness like MS that has no rythm or reason to it.

There are several of us here on this group who have children/grandchildren with PDD, autism or other related disorders. I live with my 9 year old granddaughter who has Asperger's. She's doing very well now but things were pretty rough for her a few years ago.

Hang in there

REALLY??? My brother has lived outside Anaconda for many years. They live off the turnoff to Wisdom on Mill Creek. Before that they lived at town Lake. Does you brother live right in town? My niece and her family live right in Anaconda. Her husband is a police officer and she's a dispatcher. Have you ever been there? It's such a lovely area.

Ha. Most often, they don't know what to do with any of the other dx's either, though they *think* they do. <gg> LOL Yup, a big factor is our Homeschooling, as well. LOL

~ In home with TS/OCD/JPA/ADD/et al. lol

My son is a high-functioning autistic sauvant...a very misunderstood and rare category. Which is why he is homeschooled...the schools even admitted that they do NOT know what to do with him and THEY recommended we continue to HS him!!!

I have never been there. They live on Mt. Hwy 1 West, wherever that is. He loves it. We haven't seen him in 6 years! He hates CA. He's a correctional officer at the prison. His wife is an LVN. My mom would love for us all to move there, she visited him a few years ago and says it's beautiful. But, she's so attached to my boys she won't move there without us. TristaSharon Marsden wrote:
