Terri,

My thoughts & prayers are with you and your daughter at this difficult time. As for the 'other' man, let me just say my thoughts about that are not as nice.

Let us know how you make out!

November 16, 2006

Terri I can certainly understand why you are stressed. I am sorry to hear they are doing this to Joni. Doesn't seem fair and neither does the insurance problem seem fair. I will keep you in my prayers.

Hugs

OT...I am so stress'd just need to vent/purge some..Terri

OT...I am so stress'd just need to vent/purge some. I am so stressed right now it's also to much to take but I know I have too right?I'm having problems with Joni, it's not her she's just the average senior who's a little mouthy but the school called me the other night telling me they want to put her in a program which I found out is for *troubled kids who have issues with either the student (deprssion, etc.) or her home environment (me)*? While we don't have the standard home life (Mom, Dad, etc.) but I feel Me and Joni are doing very well. Are they making reference to my disability? I sure hope that's not the case or the fact I'm a single Mom but isn't that the *norm* with 50% of marriages ending up in divorce these days/years? I see myself as very *normal* !!! This school district is upper-middle class. The kids not only get a car at 16 it's usually brand new (BMW, SUV's, etc.) one too!! These kids are spoiled beyond belief.Forgive me but that's bullshit why can't they let her enjoy her senior year? Why do they have to put a *label* like that on her, she's so upset by this and I'm going to have to walk in there and tell them to back off or I'm going to have to take legal action against them.Instead of running to the mailbox every day to see if she's been accepted to one of the 5 colleges she applied too she's so stressed worrying what the school is going to do and that's not fair at all! She (Joni) after missing most all her freshman year with *lyme* disease and then had to go to summer school for the last 3 summers so she can graduate this year with her class. She has worked so hard to catch-up with the credit's she needed with a pretty decent GPA 3.20 and her SAT's reflect the same too but can't figure her scores out with the way they are calculated with the new test they have now. But, I'm told it's good too enough for most colleges to accept her except maybe Yale, Harvard or MIT:)....................And, then there's an auto accident from a couple years ago just after Joni got better from the lyme disease 7/o4. It was more of a fender *tap* really but the man who's bumper I *tapped* has filed a civil suit against me...grrrr!!!My insurance company has hired a lawyer to represent in the case because of the high level/torts I have for car insurance. And, this man is full of shit with the injuries he *claims* he has.

My car had no damage except for some cracked paint on my bumper but TG I filed it because the pictures prove he is a liar!!!!

But, he has a lawyer too who told him my ins. co. will probably settle before it goes to court. Nice lawyer huh *sarcastic*

My lawyer is coming tomorrow to depose me here at my house and my house looks like it hasn't been clean'd in like forever but while not forever it's been months anyway.I hope he makes more mistakes and they bust him for insurance fraud. But my lawyer says while we are right you never know how a jury will react to it. So, they have made an offer to him and hope he jus goes away!! It's just more crap that I. Do Not need! Thanks for reading

Hugs,

Terri

Dear Teri...thank you for sharing and venting, and knowing we are a safe and caring group to do that with...as far as your daughter goes...i would ask for whatever 'documentation' the school should have to constitute putting her in some special program. Also, they can recommend it, but i do NOT believe they can enforce it if it is against her and your wishes...I am fairly sure on this. In concerns to this--if it is in some way related to your 'disability' or home environment, or Joni's feelings about you, MS, home life, the National MS Society offers counseling sessions--i think a total of 5--not much, but something. In addition, you mention about the condition of your home--i can relate to this--with 4 kids at home, 1 off in college, me feeling pretty crappy lately, my home also is..to put it mildly--untidy...The NMSS offers 50 hours of homecare per calendar year; I am waiting for a homehealth agency that they work with to call and set this up with me. I am requesting something like 4 hours a day, 2 days a week, possibly every 2 weeks, so i can kind of stretch it out. They can come in to help with home stuff, laundry, your own personal care, etc.--it is well worth taking advantage of this very wonderful opportunity. Most insurance companies will do what they can to just get past a mishap and try their best to settle out of court--I would NOT stress about this one at all, you have enough on your plate right now--let the insurance handle it.

When is the last time you had a massage, or reflexology or something that would be wonderful, luxurious and comforting for you...Today i go for acupuncture-it is a treat i give myself every 4 to 6 wks. I have been also treating myself every few months with a shiatsu massage....You need something to look forward to, give you comfort, and a sense of 'being in your body'...just my usual 2 cents...blessings on you...hope the stress can soon deflate! hugs, kate OT...I am so stress'd just need to vent/purge some..TerriTo: MSersLife > > OT...I am so stress'd just need to vent/purge some.

{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}} Terri You do need to talk to Joni's school. This guy keeps doing these claims to people because the insurance companies keep paying him off to get him off their backs.

Hi Terri, I'm so sorry for all the stress you're dealing with. {{{{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}}} I'm very curious about this issue with the school. What exactly are the reasons the school sites for believing Joni would benefit from this program? If they've not yet stated those reasons, and stated them clearly, they need to (by law) and in writing. What is the nature of this program? What do they call it? Would this be like a class, or something else? Would it replace any classes she's in, or be something extra? Perhaps even after school? What is the duration of this "program"? Has the school done an evaluation of Joni (which you either requested or consented to)? Or have you had one done outside of school? If they have, what were the findings? Does Joni have a disability or diagnosis, including learning disabilities, which have been identified and diagnosed? Does she have Depression? Does she meet with her counselor at school and could this be part of that? Has she had modifications or accomodations put in place at school in the past? If you do not feel this program is warranted for Joni, she can't be made to take part in it. Hopefully, this is merely a compassionate, even misguided?, attempt to help Joni in some way and it will be easily resolved. Though it may not be specific to your needs (often used by parents seeking services/modifications/accomodations for their children at school), this site may provide information which will help. http://www.wrightslaw.com Challis Terri wrote: OT...I am so stress'd just need to vent/purge some.

Terri,

Vent away, that is what we are here for. I

would call her guidance counselor and find out all the criteria for the program

and why they think it is appropriate for her. I work in Special Ed and the

school can’t force a program on a child.

I’ll keep you in my prayers. Please

keep us updated.

I was going to ask the same thing...they can *suggest* but I do not believe they can *implement* without the parents expressed consent. Another reason I homeschool...

You know we're all pulling for you (applied to *5* colleges, eh? That in itself is pretty impressive!)

Terri,

I agree with Challis. They can't do anything without your permission and it needs to be in writing. I work for a school district and I'm certain this is the case. Parents don't realize how much power they have. They could make changes in the schools to benefit the kids it can be wonderful.

I'm really sorry that you are going thru so much stress you don't need it. Anyway your in my prayers I'm certain things will work out.
