You are doing what has to be done so that she will be taken care of. God bless you Rudee - I know that it must be so difficult.

In some states, you even have to hire a lawyer for the "adult" for whom you wish guardianship.<br /><br />I think it's especially more difficult with higher functioning "adults." They have such difficulty trying to understand what this is all about. A friend has a disabled son and at the hearing, he looked at her and asked sadly, "You can still be my mother, can't you?"NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6810714864765099820.post-92120118068997523412011-02-28T15:50:23.842-05:002011-02-28T15:50:23.842-05:00I'm glad Rachel has you to look out for her.

The state/gov't makes me wonder sometimes.<br /><br />I am sorry.<br /><br />[Pooldad said couldn't you write one and just copy them, changing the date and send them in each year. It isn't as though much changes as you ALWAYS have her best interest at heart and take care of her as a mother DOES.]<br /><br />I hope you can enjoy eachother today.
