Today is one of those days where I know ahead of time just how bad it's gonna be. We have 2 very important meetings today. One in Akron for Gavin and one at Eastgate for Emmett. They also happen to overlap and so we are forced to be in 2 places at the same time. We'll have to divide and conquer today in order to accomplish everything we need to. Lizze is going to Akron with my mom and I'm meeting with Emmett's school. So both of us are running around like crazy today. The stress is getting to Lizze and her migraine is back with avengence. For anyone thinking that taking your child to a psychiatric hospital for admittance makes your life easier.....think again. If anything, things become more…

Here are some random pictures of Akron Children's Hospital. This really is a cool hospital. I took these pictures on the journey get lunch. - Lost and Tired Please Vote for Lost and Tired (just click the link) and help me spread Autism Awareness. Everyone can Vote once a day :)

Alright, so a lot happened yesterday. I figured now that the dust is settling I could kinda recap what took place yesterday. Basically, Gavin began hurting himself again on Wednesday morning. In doing so, he violated his behavioral contract he agreed to on Sunday night at Akron Children's Hospital. We returned to Akron yesterday morning as per the instructions given to us on Sunday. We spent about 8 hours being interviewed and processed. Gavin was admitted because he was a danger to himself and a danger to his younger brothers by his example. While this is the outcome we were hoping for it's bitter sweet. I say bitter sweet because this was a last resort and we don't feel good about not being able to help him at home. However, he is…

Gavin is getting admitted. Still waiting for the details. I'll have more information later. Right now we are waiting to go upstairs. - Lost and Tired Please Vote for Lost and Tired (just click the link) and help me spread Autism Awareness. Everyone can Vote once a day :)

Last night while at therapy Elliott was extra cute and I thought I would lighten the mood for a bit and share them. He is just to stinkin' adorable. He wanted to pose for the camera a few times and I promised him I would share them with all of you. Please enjoy the cuteness compliments of Elliott Richard. :) - Lost and Tired Please Vote for Lost and Tired (just click the link) and help me spread Autism Awareness.

The doctor has come and gone. He seemed to take us seriously....at least I think he did. Gavin "may" actually get admitted this time. Just so I'm VERY clear, we aren't looking to dump Gavin off but instead first d him so desperately needed help or intervention. If he gets admitted he will get the constant individualized attention he needs to "maybe" work through this. The change of environment may be helpful as well.

We are here and have been informed that the wait will be VERY long today. Gavin is being interviewed right now, with our consent, by one of the people familiar with him. We'll see how it goes. Gavin is acting like nothing happened. This is pretty typical and part of the frustration. He will get the whole house turned upside down and then just shut it off as though nothing happened. Everyone is still traumatized and trying to cope and Gavin has already moved on. My allergies are driving me CRAZY. I would much rather be at home while this miserable.  - Lost and Tired Please Vote for Lost and Tired (just click the link) and help me spread Autism Awareness. Everyone can Vote once a day :)

Gavin broke his behavioral contract so we will be leaving for Akron Children's Hospital as soon as we have someone to watch Emmett. Oh....and speaking of Akron Children's Hospital, I have a bone to pick with them. Last night I learned (not sure why I was hearing this for the first ti me last night) what actually happened while at Akron Children's the other day. Apparently, Lizze was questioned by the "social worker" and treated as though she did this to him.. Gavin was pulled into another room and questioned without parental consent. Being that he is clearly a minor I'm not real sure they can do that.  Gavin has a VERY long and VERY documented history of violence towards himself and others. The police can't even question a minor…
