OT- Thoughts and prayers pls

Thank you Geoff, I really appreciate it.

Sorry Pam.  Will be thinking of you and your family. What an awful thing to go through.

Thanks Arelene, I appreciate it.  See you Saturday?

Pam I am sorry that this is happening to you as a family but I am pretty happy that this is happening for your brother. Because it will hopefully be the catalyst for him getting some real help. He is very sick and when you are very sick you need to be in a hospital safe and cared for. He is right where he needs to be, and I am relieved as well. You are right this has been going on long enough. Big hugs to you and your family. I am sorry it had to be so traumatic. If you need anything let me know.

Thanks Nicole.  My dad said to me last night "you didn't have to come, but we appreciate it" and my mom (who is normally blinded to stuff like this) said "No, she had to come.  She needed to make sure things were done the way they have needed to be done that we haven't done"  ding ding ding mom :) 

I appreciate the support.  I'll definately let you know if I need anything...or if I have any questions :)

WOW.. way to go mom for recognizing!

AS you know I am always here for you - 2am whatever!

I am glad that your brother is in the hospital where he needs to be and will hopefully be getting the treatment that he needs to recover. I am so sorry that you, Brian, your parents and your other brother have to go through this. I know some very hurtful things were said and done - but remember that's not "him" that's the disease taking him over.

*hugs* and love

PS - how are things this morning??

Not real sure how things are "this morning"  I slept fitfully last night....for a number of reasons.  It apparantly wasn't 100% that he would be kept as of 8pm last night.  Granted, it was 99.9% certain...but that 0.1% had me terrified.  As many people in his situation is, he is VERY manipulative and the hospital sent my parents home, and I wasn't allowed there period.  So I was terrified that he would be let out....and he was sooooo angry at specifically me and Brian...I was convinced he was coming up here.  Ridiculous thoughts of my own, I realize.

I haven't heard anything from my parents - the hospital was supposed to update them around 11pm last night.  I'll probalby call them in a few hours to see what's going on.

I appreciate it.  Chris called Brian on our way home...neither one of us felt like "talking" really, so I'm sorry he didn't answer the phone.  We appreciate all of the support :)

Thats OK hun. I told him what was going on so he knew you weren't blowing him off. He just wanted to re-offer support. I think he also wanted a "play date" for the weekend. I told him I thought you guys had stuff going on though.

Good luck today. REmember to take care of you!

Yea...we won't be home this weekend.  Brian is leaving friday, I'm leaving saturday after barix. His parents are going away and you know that their "babies" can't be left alone for any amount of  time....so we are house sitting....
