A new ray of light.....

I have taken a few days off from the internet and posting. I was just too exhausted mentally from this entire hospitalization. I just hung out with my kids, went to a horse show, and pretty much rearranged the entire house. Why I decided to do a spring cleaning in November, who knows. Today we were fortunate to go see a new Psychologist with Faith. Renae and I think he is exactly what we were looking for. He called Faith an A-typical case, very different, yet in a crisis mode right now. He agreed with the severe anxiety, but does not like to label children as young as her with BiPolar. He had us in his office for over two hours. I have never seen a doctor do this, he rescheduled an appointment that was in the waiting room because of Faith's current condition. He even pulled some strings to get us an appointment with a psychiatrist that he has worked with for many years on some pretty unique A-typical cases. Instead of over a month we have one on November 30. He is open to all avenues, he is going to be doing some testing that Renae has been requesting for years. He is also worried about the daily meltdowns of terror and anger she has. This is something unique that may even be something that has not yet fully shown itself. He recommended a private school that is more open to Faith's unique requirements for school to help her get back in to a classroom. We will post later what we find out about that. I am so exhausted that I cannot remember all the details. I will get Renae to start writing what is on her mind and give some more specifics on this journey. Thank you to the new friends that have donated towards Faith's service dog. We have a long way to go, but these donations are uplifting and keep us going. Little Angels emailed me yesterday that they have been approved as a Non Profit Organization by the IRS. So I will pass that info along when I receive it. Right now it is 6:30 PM, Faith woke up this morning angry and not feeling good. She had a pretty good day, made it through the long doctors appointment, ate a huge dinner of her favorite food (Ribs), but just exploded about 10 minutes ago for no reason at all. She just started running through the house screaming how much she hates us and how bad she feels. Renae took her for a ride, this seems to calm her, almost as it was when the girls were infants and we would take them for rides in the middle of the night to get them to quit crying and go to sleep. On a side note support from everywhere on Post here has been great. It seems Faith is a very A-typical case to the Army and TriCare. It seems once I raised a red flag and made the correct people aware of what is going on with us they took immediate action. This is another reason we must continue with this mission of awareness....so we can clear the path for future families. Kris
