| Juanita's year 11 formal |
I am 39, Australian and a single parent. Left my husband in 03 due to domestic violence. My 7 year old son is the reason I go on every day. He is wonderful. He was diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress after a car accident in 04. He also has hyperactivity/adhd problems and Aspergers Syndrome but we are managing without medication for now.. I have retired from my job after 21 years due to my health but am still trying to get a job thats within my capabilities as I hate not working . I am nothing to look at fat, and some scarring from accident but am loyal and honest so that counts for something I guess. Rarely socialize as not able to take Shaney along. My ex is ok now he has sorted himself out but our marriage will never recover.
He is with a lady named Linda now and she is lovely. So that helps, I have a 18 year old stepdaughter who is living in SA now (I am in NSW).
My 75 year old mum lives locally and we spend alot of time together, I Have a brother Robert who is a great support to us, and a sister Carol. I have many nephews and nieces.
I have some loving friends, ones that love and accept my son and his quirks!
We are doing ok and with love & support are getting better every day |

Shaney is with an OT now and has therapressure two hourly and has to do 45 minutes of heavy lifting etc a day plus other stuff so hard to find time for everywhere.

visit with Minds and Hearts went really well. Report on the way. Shaney will need to see psy for cognitive therapy and go back regularly to see minds and hearts.. unsure how that will go. but gonna try. sadly shaney came home with a really bad viral infection and has been ill since tuesday!... hopefully back to normal soon. Jess gets baptized tomorrow and shaney so sad to miss it |

Shane has an appointment at Minds and Hearts on 29/09/08 it is quiet expensive but DOCS have paid for it as Shane needs it so bady an I was unable to find enough money. Its in Brisbane so about 4-5 hours travel in train and bus so shane is freaking out a bit But hopefully will be a good thing for him. Will let everyone know how it goes maybe it would help some others? |

Things still difficult for Shane. But our set up in mornings is working much better. School is improving after we had a meeting with them taking along an advocate and a DOCS brighter futures worker. Shane still cries alot and is frustrated but having less problems at school so thats a start. Will take each day as it comes. No idea what is best anymore just taking a step at a time. |
