So, G had some crazy looking marks on her leg. Possibly bug bites but I wanted to have it looked at since it was so many and so round. I was lucky to get an app the next day in the morning with her doctor. We decided that since it was the Dr and not the NP we would ask the her questions about coming off the meds. When J mentioned it the nurse who checked us in she looked pissed off and was very combative. I don't know why. I'm not sure what she gained from acting like that. She didn't want us to talk to the Dr about it because we have an app in Sept to review it. But why was is it that she was so freaking angry about it. If it was the NP, we would have just had her look at G's leg and we'd be done. Anyway, we got a prescription to start her coming off the meds. We started on Saturday and by Sunday, we had a change of heart and gave her the extra dose. Sunday and Monday were ugly days for G. No self control at all. I was terrified for her and anyone she would come in contact with. She wasn't being bad. Just so wild. Anyway, she had an incident at school so we are now waiting to get with the pyschiatrist and we'll assess whats needed then. So much for taking her off meds we didn't think worked anyway.

Challenges...
I feel like I'm drowning in responsibilties. I get up at 6:30pm to get ready. Then get G up to get ready. We've started picking out clothes the night before to alleviate the struggle in the morning. It seems to be working for now. Then get her breakfast, put her bag together, get her meds together, pack her snack and water. After that, we go back upstairs to brush teeth and wash face. In between with her running to J to say hello and not do what she's supposed to do. Finally all of are in the car and we drop her off. Then, I get home, make my breakfast and coffee and work. I do some side hustle and get my act together for my day job. Now, I'm reminding J to do things, throwing in load of laundry, again reminding J to do things, working, figuring out dinner, keeping the kitchen clean, possibly pulling out the vaccum and going back to work, etc. Now we are trying to get G off the current meds but it's all such a mess. According to the doctor's office ,she should have been monitored every 3 months by the prescriber which we weren't aware of. Anyway, just not happy these days with healthcare.
