Not so good news in court - part one
«

January 03, 2013, 08:24:40 PM »
Today was my dd's hearing at the district level. I assumed that it would be first level, and then proceed to county court. I never prepared any letters to district justice. My dd's mental health case manager was to send a letter. Initialy, said that she would speak on her behalf. Then it was she would send a letter. My dd text her yesterday to find out if sent letter, and what time should she meet her. Her reply was that she would fax letter. And, she could not go to court, as she switched days and did not have a sitter. So, my dd was on her own. Not even sure how she would get to court.
Meanwhile... . I have a meeting to admit my brother to a nursing home. The drs. are just stunned that he is still alive. They came to the conclusion that he had this cancer for awhile and his body just adapted to it. He was in hospital for three weeks. We believed that he would die there, but here we are. He is still in bad shape. And, he is just existing. We have comfort measures for him. I was designated his POA.
It was just heartbreaking to have to inform him that he was going to a nursing home. My sister went to sit with him while I filled out the paperwork at nursing home.
let me backtrack. Yesterday, my dd harrassed me to look at iphones and put he on my plan. My dh told her a few weeks ago that we would be renweing our contract. And, said that she could be added to our plan. I was not happy about it. My dh at the time did not think it was a bad idea. After all, my dd has a job. Yeah, right! That was his mood then. My dd's phone has been dying, and she learned that there were calls that she did not receive. So, her minutes supposedly ran out at midnight. I finally caved like I always did when she was younger. I did not have the strength, anymore. I was ready for a breakdown. I got her the phone to shut her up. she was harrassinng me.
I was so upset that I allowed her to get it. I was texting her at 1:30 in the morning. Told her that I did not appreciate her pestering me when I was going though a rough time. It was my fault for caving. I was just at my wit's end between my brother, and my mother. Then I hear my mother crying in her room. I am up for a few hours, then have to get up for work.
to be cnt'd... .

I am so sorry you have so much heartache with all that is going on in your family. It seems our BPDs can't stand US focusing on anyone else and start harassing US at the worst times. Don't be so hard on yourself... . I marvel at how you are handling everything. You are awesome!
