My parents were watching the kids while I had Lizze at the psychiatrist this afternoon. They actually had to pick them up from school and so I didn't get a chance to ask about their day until we were in our way home.
Elliott and Emmett had a great day, as usual.
When I asked Gavin about his day, he said it was great. I always follow up with *what happened today* because I never get the full story the first time around.
He said he got a little frustrated but that was it. Next thing I know, Elliott blurts out that *Gavin fell down the steps at school today. *
Apparently, it didn't register with Gavin as something important that we should know. I want to just beat my head into wall sometimes because I just don't get it.........
My first thought was *here we go again with more bullshit fake accidents. *This time however, it sounds like it actually happened. In fact, he had to be helped up by two of his classmates because he was unable to get himself up off the floor.
I'm going to be talking to the school in the morning to find out what actually happened.
Gavin said that he fell down at least the last two steps and twisted his ankle. He doesn't know how or why he fell but that he just did.
I'm gonna admit that I'm *cautiously concerned. *
Until I find out for *sure *this happened, I'm just going to act as though it didn't. I realize that makes me sound like an asshole but you have to understand that Gavin is a sociopath and a compulsive liar. This wouldn't be the first, second, third, forth or even fifth time he's lied to us about this type of thing.
Every time this happens, I panic and stress out about whether or not his health issues are getting worse and so far, these have all turned out to be faked occurrences.
While it goes against my nature, I'm going to try my best to verify his story before I get really stressed out about something that *may *or *may not* have even happened.
If this did happen and it was witnessed, I want to know why I wasn't called.
Raising a child with fragile health is not easy. Raising a child with fragile health that also can't be trusted, is damn near impossible, especially when you have to rely on what they tell you to, in order to make potential life and death decisions about their health and well-being.
Gavin's not hurt, so if this did actually happen, I'm grateful for that.
To be completely honest, I don't know which would be worse, finding out that he's once again lied to us or that he actually did fall down the steps.......
