Well, my son has been admitted to a pediatric psychiatric facility. They are treating him for depression, most likely still stemming from losing his father 6 years ago. He was only 11 and even tho he's been in counseling, I'm sure his young mind just couldn't process the loss and grief. The depression has manifested itself in anger. He's been put on an antidepressant and a mood stabilizing drug. We will get to visit him this evening. We are hoping, rather led to believe at this point, that he will be released in 72 hrs. He obviously needs some intense counseling to work thru his grief and anger, but that can be done at home. My husband & I were finally able to get some good rest last night. I've managed not to totally sabotage my WOE so far. My friend has a weight watchers scale and it's on track with my new scale, so I guess my new one is accurate. I've fluctuated the past few days, which is to be expected. Keeping it more to the low end rather than the high, so at least I'm not gaining. It may seem silly to be concerned with weight loss given all that's going on, but my health depends on my eating habits and my ability to handle life is dependent on my health. I need to be able to take care of my family, which means I have to take care of me.
We are having a chill day, waiting for the time to go visit my son. Sitting on the screened in porch, listening to birds singing and a baseball game being played in the park next to the neighborhood. I hope everyone has a blessed Sunday.
