So I haven't given an update on SD17 and our fiasco over the holiday vacation because honestly, I can not discuss it without wanting to kill something. I just picked up my SS15 to take him to the ortho and who almost hits me flying into the HS parking lot, my SD17 who apparently is skipping first and 2nd period. Well I flip around to try and confront her and ask why she is coming to school late and she had seen me and rushed to get into school. But, I saw her and she glared at me before going in the door.

Well, you may recall we had planned our annual vacation with the kids over Christmas. NY and Boston this year. SD originally was supposed to go and then she got mad at her dad and put some stuff online and we said she had to apologize. Long story, read previous blogs. The afternoon before we left, she decided to apologize to her dad so she could go. I yelled at her for blowing him off and said fine she could go, but we were expecting her to be courteous and kind on the trip to the boys and no whining.

Yes - she is bipolar...They went over everything and agreed to add another med to work with the anti-depressant. DH feels better but, I don't. No plan other than to add another med. DH left after the apt and BM went back for another session, this time with SD. They decided not to tell SD that DH is involved in this now. I disagree. I think she should know. She is hiding stuff from everyone. The person she sees is a Psychiatric nurse practitioner and she works with the Psychatrist who won't see her until she is 18.

I haven't posted in awhile, been reading and commenting but no blogs for me. I wanted to wait and see how all of this played out with SD17. A lot has happened the last month. We have started having her over for dinner and going out for dinner with my BS18 and SS15. It went well. She is having a very hard time. Originally I didn't want her back in our lives, but DH was getting desperate with worry about her.
