Thanks ODGA - We need them today - rough night with D last night. We went to the movies yesterday afternoon with my Aunt and cousin who are visiting my mom. D ate popcorn and raisinettes and then wanted to go to the bathroom right before the big finale of the movie. I of course said she couldn't go alone, and asked her if she could wait until the movie was over so I wouldn't miss the ending. She got upset, told me I didn't "trust her" (DUH!!!) etc. - kind of ruined the end of the movie for me. Then we all went out of the theater and were discussing plans to go out to dinner - D said she didn't want to go out, wanted to go home, S12 was whining about the choice of restaurant .... all of this rubbed H the wrong way,since he never got to go to restaurants as a kid and feels they don't appreciate it. So H decides he will take those two home and I'll go to dinner with S17 and my relatives. D13 and S12 then proceed to scream and cry all the way home because they're being left out of the party.
All has calmed down by the time I return from dinner but then D shows me where she scraped up her wrist with some scissors and is talking about how much she hates herself . This is such a frightening disease - I swear, if you had met this child six months ago, you would never have imagined she was capable of being here.
