Ugh... they got the dx wrong

[Googie]

After speaking with my dd's case manager yesterday we realized that her dx was completely off.  Thank goodness there are people out there that are as concerned with details like I am so that these issues can be dealt with and fixed right away.  Its amazing how something so important can be overlooked when there is a clear history and long term dx.

I'm in the midst of a phone call frenzy trying to get everything straightened out.  I know this will be fixed, but it makes you wonder how much time has been wasted because of mistakes such as this not being caught.

At least I know I have a professional that will be as vigilant as I am and will be looking over all of her records with a fine tooth comb.

Hi Googie  

I hope "they" get it right soon!

How will these changes affect your d's treatment?

What dx are you referring to?

[Googie]

It's all good now.  There have been so many evaluations and prior dx that it confuses even the best professionals when first getting to know a client I guess.

The most important thing is that she is definitely in the right place with people who really know how to help.  I just got off the phone with her therapist and I am so relieved because he is extending his help to me as well so both my dd and I can go through the DBT process together which will be such a wonderful experience.  I'm sure it won't be easy, but I feel that I can greatly benefit from doing whatever her therapist asks of me.

This is exactly what I was hoping and praying for.
