COLD DARK ROOM

[Tidgy's Dad]

It's temporary and the two girls have been bounced around to four different homes in 3 months. No one should ever have to go through that. All four kids should be settled with family by Thanksgiving (hopefully.) Then (after fostering for 2 years and taking in 10 kids) we will be taking a break. Plus, when the baby looks at you and gives her precious smile, it is all worth it. I can sleep when I'm dead...lol

Well , bless you for all that you're doing.
My gran used to do fostering and it's a wonderful, though sometimes difficult and emotional thing.

Howdy Shannon! And you're stateside as well? Bully for me. I'm intrigued by the cognitive thinking aspect of your work. 2 months ago I had a great single car wreck and one of the funner parts was a fairly good concussion. I suffer some often times entertaining and distressing thought process issues as a result. If I remember, we should talk.

I work primary with individuals who have autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, Angelman syndrome, fragile x, and such. Ken, I do remember about your daughters post in regards to your accident...Thank God your still with all of us!! I'm sorry you had that horrific accident and you now are dealing with difficult thought processes. Did you do any OT or PT (occupational or physical therapy)? I'm all ears

I was in a rehabilitation center for 20+ days and received both while there and now that I'm here at the house I have both, and they are nurses as well, coming out on a weekly basis to work on me as well.

I just got home from the Michigan humane society walk. I took my bosses dog to the walk

She had fun, it was a bit damp out. Now I'm relaxing. My energy is drained. Have to recoup for the week!

How've you been feeling overall? I think the entire tortoise forum was in shock when we heard the sad news about you! I've only interacted a few times with you but you were quite the joker when I read your posts prior to your accident.

I sent you a pm.
