Hi all,
I caught up with some reading here, and as there are so many posts I want to reply to, but have limited time right now, I will re-read and reply when I'm able.
I thank many of you for your support. Thanks, Emme - I really do hope Taylor's new pdoc takes the approach I'm looking for. She has her initial intake with a therapist tomorrow, where we will make the appointment with her new pdoc. I like that they gather information before she sees the pdoc - it just seems more thorough to me. (They are well aware that we are not changing therapists - so there's no agenda.)
In the meantime, Taylor remains in a much better state than before she started on medication. It's difficult to attribute that to anything else at this time. I am still going to tread very carefully, and educate myself. More importantly, I will be looking for the desired outcome for Taylor so she will want to stay alive, and how her pain is alleviated.
I know you are not doctors; I never thought otherwise. I came back because your experiences, knowledge, and support really do help. I can handle being likened to a child murderer, even though it's so unbelievably wrong for any person to do that to another, because that person and their ways mean nothing to me. I guess I'm stronger than I thought I was. Thank you to those who have supported me.
I do hope to offer my own experiences and support to help any of you where I'm able.
Laura
