Kinship care versus foster care/adoption
Having been placed in a position where I now have custody of my 3 YO granddaughter and going through the legal system, I sought an online network of relative caregivers for children. I would encourage you, especially since you are in Georgia, that if you take any children into foster care with the idea of adopting them, there is federal law that requires the state to take certain actions in a specific time frame. When a child is removed from it's bio parent(s), the state is required to investigate any possible relatives who can take the child before foster care is considered, but even before that, reunification with the parents is the priority. Once a child enters the system and is in the system for 15 out of any 22 months, the state is required to find permanent placement for the child.

The problem with this is that there are case workers who may favor a foster family and do not seek out relative care. I have a good friend in Georgia who had to fight all the way to the state level to get custody of her grandson after the child was placed from the hospital into a foster care home with the promise that the foster parents would be allowed to adopt. She has now adopted her grandson, but it was a long, hard battle to get the state to admit their own interests were placed above those of the child and/or family.

If you get a child placed through the state, please make certain there is not a relative who wants that child before you get your hopes up. The courts are now favoring return of children to relatives even after a child has spent years with a foster family who hoped to adopt them.

States get bonus federal funds by complying with the time lines and being able to close the case, so some states place children in foster care because it is easier than trying to locate relatives.

Didn't mean to go off on a tangent, but I can't imagine my sweet bella going to someone outside her family.
If it was a clinic, it might have been urgent care, but it was NOT acute care. sm
Acute care refers to work in an acute care setting, a hospital, doing at least History and Physicals, Discharge Summaries, Consultations, Surgery notes, Emergency Department notes, and much more, including GI procedures, Cardiology procedures, Neurological procedures, Pulmonary Function Studies.  It goes on and on and it means and acute care hospital setting, not a clinic.

You are SO right -- do you believe I never visualized her in an apartment that was anything but covered in SNOW?  Just goes to show you how much I am able to relate to a sunny clime and take vacations there. (Not much.)  So Jodi, by all means, pay heed to the above poster -- who brought me back to the entire United States instead of the cold northeast where I was. 


OOPS sm

DUH on my part.  No, he was out at the bars that night (not unusually!!!) and came to the house about 3 a.m.  I said you cannot stay here!!!  (My husband was already gone).  He said can't I just go to sleep?  I said nope, not here!  He said he was going to sleep in his car and I said fine.  I haven't seen him since.  I guess I should have filled you in on that part also. 


 


As to him getting something out of this, I totally agree that would make sense.  I did talk to his sister about this (as this is something new for us in our 4 marraige) and she says that he has always been like that, wanting to help people out and having a hard time saying no (which that part I have seen).  I don't know.  I asked if they had "something going on" (which I was kidding, that would be a TOTAL SHOCK!!!) and that didn't make him too happy!!  Thank you guys again for all the support.  I truly feel like I am making the right decision and If my husband is going to stick up for a bum, then he is not the man I thought he was and I will be fine!!


oops!
I said I let my CMT expire after almost 10 years, actually it was almost 20 years. Oh well, the result is the same.
Oops!! Sorry! Can you believe I never

I had a doc leave his dictating phone on, while he left the room, in the surgeon's lounge. I heard one very handsome, young doc tell the other docs that when he rubs Ben Gay on his 'boys', he goes crazy! I couldn't even look at the guy after that one !
Oops
I didn't mean previous emails. I meant previous posting!!!! Geesh. It's been a long day for me!
OOPS!!!

Yes, I transcribe (late night, early morning). I know very well how noisy peds can be. I have raised 6 children!!! and used to work in the clinic setting. I understand they are noisy and do not fault the children. But it certainly would help if the doctor would be a little bit more considerate LOL. If your going to have a conversation with the parents, turn off the recorder for a sec!!!

I'm still interested in your responses, but I've enjoyed reading what popped up when I posted my message.  I had previously tried to find posts related to editing, with no luck, so I was glad to see some *talk* on the board about it.  Please continue talking...
