I say that because I understand that while others tried to help me, hard as they may, the only people who really helped me were the ones closest to dealing with what I was dealing with, and then I knew they really didn’t know. As I know too, that I don’t know what you are dealing with. But, take comfort that having Sasha released into protective services and also attend a mental hospital is so devastating. Sasha had a ruling today, regarding her mental health and her age. It may be something you can use before the judge as a similar problem and show cause for the judge to rule in favor of legally “treating” your child as if she is older, so she can get the benefits of being younger. Can not the same principle apply of legally “treating” the child as if she was younger and used the mixed maturity argument? His decision may have set a precedent your judge can follow of treating them as is if... let me know CathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836394109152759629.post-15134619189775011482011-07-11T10:50:32.691-07:002011-07-11T10:50:32.691-07:00crying tears for all of you... my stomach is sick ...crying tears for all of you... my stomach is sick thinking of Papillion in an adult institution...<br /><br />Will continue praying.... love you all.One Crowded Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06646904151810368442noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-836394109152759629.post-61513588080478995972011-07-10T21:19:05.300-07:002011-07-10T21:19:05.300-07:00I love you and your beautiful family so much.

We all fear the day that we may have to deal with what you have had to deal with these past few weeks. Thank you for having the courage to share. I have always said that I would know what to do or find out what the best resources are for my child should they be needed. You have proven that tenfold. Keep up the fight because you are all worth it. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Stay strong, Stay Calm.

It sounds like a good thing that they took her off the voluntary admission status and put her on to 1:1. Is her current place mostly a 'warehouse' type of place? Is that why you want an rtc type of place? <br />I don't know if this is on your radar or out of line but I will throw it out there.... you might be able to get an adult guardianship on her based on mental incompetence. <br />I hope things level out, at least become manageable.
