This is a great idea! I will post my first update on Blaine in a while. He came home from rehab (4months) just before Thanksgiving. He has been doing great. His speech is coming back and he is MUCH easier to manage. Don't know if it is the meds, or time, or therapy but the anger is gone. The throwing and hitting are gone.

This is a momentous improvement. Mainly because I can pay someone to look after him or have him attend an adult daycare while I work. My next goal for him is to have him stay home alone for a few hours. Not sure how I will know when he is ready. He has absolutely no short term memory so I am not sure how he will do. Will he forget where I am? Can he get help if he needs it?

I guess I'll know. I am thankful for all his acheivements. Yet I am still grieving the lost relationship. The holidays have been rough.
