Thanks, Mattie. I am taking the day off today to go and bring D16 back home from the eating disorder clinic. It was nice in a way having her there, because I knew she was safe. Now, she comes back to a day treatment. Still no school, though. She's got to get better first.
Mediation meeting rescheduled for a week.
While this is all very tough, I am SO glad that I had 19 months and Iraq to help me detach. While certain things continue to rip mey heart out (like seeing Golden Books in the supermarket....read them to my kids every night), it is NOWHERE like it used to be. Like Donna once related, there were times I couldn't sign my name because my hand was shaking so badly.
