It's just not fair, you would think that all the battles you've been through with diagnosis and surgeries..that it would be about time you could cop a break and things would go easy. The school's just don't get it. I've had to fight tooth and nail for Holly at her school every step of the way. Holly has a friend who has missed a lot of school as well due to illness, and the school is bending over backward to accommodate her..the difference between Holly and her friend? While Holly is piling on weight, her friend has lost a lot of weight. In their eyes..weight loss=sick, weight gain=lazy kid not willing to work. Sorry, I didn't mean to go off on my own rant, but I understand a bit of what you're going through. I hope and pray that things improve for Alex..and in the end, what's the big hurry to finish school? So if she has to go back as an adult to get her HSC, so be it..her recovery has to come first. Take care Rene..big hugs to you and Alex.Jennyrnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3502187085686294265.post-9711339372848255592009-09-29T09:25:09.816-07:002009-09-29T09:25:09.816-07:00My email address is rbibby@surewest.net I'd lo...My email address is rbibby@surewest.net I'd love to talk to you more directly.<br />Alex has been in an alternative school for several years, even that's too much for her.

My daughter who is 19 was just diagnosed with Cushing's and reading you blog has helped me cope and understand - if you can understand this syndrome.<br />Second, have you thought of pulling Alex out of traditional school and letting her go at her own pace through either an alternative program or home schooling?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
