Thanks pinkeye. I'll ask him how much he needs to know. My daughter has an appt. today. My son and daughter are doing therapy over the summer. I might start in the fall. That's another thing, I'm not sure if I need it or if I want it, or why I need it or want it! LOL Try to follow that! Right now, between the doc appts. and meds, it's about $500 a month, I figure the therapy will take it to about $600 a month. It's tight. We can't all go at once, and we don't need family therapy. The kids need to work on individual issues, and who knows what I need!Jazzed
