I need your prayers!!!

I have decided it's ok to be proud of myself

hi nannynoo high fives all round Well done you.

You are right Rosequartz he needs me and needs to be with the rest of the family too who are suffering

I have so much to prepare for , the garden is being done from next week onwards which is perfect timing , everything is actually

My puppy was on his absolute BEST behaviour , he was so good , just took him for walkies and he is knocked out now lol

This is the best news I have heard all day. Well done for working so hard to get your boy where he belongs.

Oh nannynoo that is just the very best news! I'm so delighted for you.

I wish your DD strength to fight her addiction.

''The road is long , with many a winding turn , which leads us to who knows where , who knows where , but I'M STRONG ( Thanks be to God! ) strong enough to carry him , he aint heavy , he's my GRANDSON''

The RELIEF I feel is indescribable am still amazed and in shock how things turned around COMPLETELY

Fantastic news!
I'm utterly thrilled for you and your DGS, here's to a brighter future x

Wonderful news nannynoo! I'm so happy for you x

What great news nannynoo. You must be on cloud nine!! My DGS's 1 and 2 have ASD's too, and I know how difficult they can be but I live them to bits. I hope all turns out well for you both. Feel free to pm me if you need to let off steam! It's good to talk to others in a similar situation.

Hallelujah!

Thank goodness nannynoo and Thank God (if you believe)

You are right, you can't switch off the love you have for your daughter but you will have to distance yourself from her and her problems for the sake of your DGS.
She is an adult and she knows what she has to do; he is just a child and he needs you now.

I am so very pleased for you, I can only imagine how you must feel, please keep telling us how things are going, I still think about you and your family. Best wishes

Today is SO good!!!

Had my asessment this morning and it went better than I could have possibly thought!!!

They are looking to place my Grandson with me and are pleased with everything

Have been crying with relief and just so THANKFUL

Thank you for your support and will let you know what happens , it will be a transitional period first but they are looking to hopefully place him around June

Thinking of you. Chin up nannynoo

You have had it so so hard nannynoo. Hang on in there! I pray that "all will be well" (Julian of Norwich) for you.

sending good thoughts...

I am going to need your support either way but I HOPE one day that I come on here after having a hard day with my GS and you REMIND me of being in this place , without him and you have my full permission to remind me lol

I hope it comes true , even a very bad day with my GS and his Autism is BETTER than no GS with me , so I HOPE that even on the worst day to come with him it will at least be WITH HIM :-) :-) :-) xx

The happiness and relief will be immense and is worth any difficult day with him to come x

I am tired tonight ... tired of waiting , tired of being separated from my GS , tired of walking into his EMPTY ROOM , tired of all the work I have done seeming to be to no avail , tired of grieving and loss and losing my GS to the care system for now , tired of missing him , TIRED OF CRYING , tired of soldiering on and on and on and on with NO results , yes results in me but it not been seen , tired of it ALWAYS being ''am having a hard time'' , tired of it being hard , tired of it NEVER LETTING UP , tired of having some hope and then them saying no , tired of my heart aching , tired of doing and doing and doing but seemingly to no avail , tired of it ALL

I can DEAL with having social services in my life for a very long time and happily working with them - I can DEAL with my DD's alcoholism and everything it brings even though it's hard , what I CANNOT deal with any more is BEING SEPARATED FROM MY GS

I have asked God for this separation to END now for my GS's sake too!!! xx

My best wishes to you for a happy ending.

To grannyknot thank you we all have to help each other love the flowers xxx

nannynoo I do hope its all ok- rooting for you.

debbie that's a courageous post that carries a message of hope. Well done you. to you and to nannynoo

Thinking of you. Wish I could give you a big hug

Thinking of you. Wish I could give you a big hug.

It has been a really hard year and it does not seem to let up

I hope finally we can have some happiness at least the rest of the family for now as it has been too long , 9 months , and I want this separation to end for all our sakes

Even my DD will know at least he is with family rather than in foster care

It has been a long road and I hope we have reached the destination now ie my GS being happy and secure xx

It will take a miracle but I believe miracles happen x
