Balzac Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 OMG the scenario of your most recent tragic loss. I cannot imagine your emotional reaction. I'm so sorry to hear this. Now my thoughts turn to whom you had for childcare? How are you now both physically & psychologically. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Pasco08 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 The one girl she took care of him. Physically i am pretty tore up but home and so she is staying with me for a bit to help me and such. I am starting to have nigh terrors or so i am told and just horrid nightmares.

Balzac Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Glad to hear you arranged for her to assist. Night terrors does not surprise me. I'm sorry to hear about your continued misery however. This problem won't last forever. At some level your mind is processing all that you've experienced. Now you've got physical pain and emotional pain which may help you move forward at a quicker pace. Have you considered some therapy to help with PTSD? Several effective treatments other than talk therapy are effective. http://emdr-therapy.com/ 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Author Pasco08 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Can't really focus on that quite yet. Have broken ribs and a broken ankle and some other crap i am trying to nurse through :/. Link to post Share on other sites
Balzac Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Ouch! Thankfully you can benefit from good weather. I can imagine pain, hobbling and an active toddler boy. Of course your current focus is recovery. Are you able to drive? I'm really sorry you're in this painful, inconvenient and stressful situation. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Pasco08 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 No i can't drive right now not with the pain meds i am on. Not to mention my son has been such a handful for some reason. Link to post Share on other sites
Balzac Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 For some reason! Hah yeah like you're a mess and daily life is different. I get what you are saying. He'll bounce back. Kids his age are often 3-5 smooth sailing months merging into 3-4 trying months. It's really about their development tasks n mastery. They master, they move along in development, kinda fall apart, regroup, master newly developed skills and rinse n repeat. You're a first time daddy and it's all new. He's not trying to annoy you! He seeks attention, comfort n reassurance, doing tasks himself when he can. Toddlers enjoy making choices. So it's not about do you want lunch, it's about do you choose A or B? It's all about running and his favorite picture books. Hang in there, ribs and ankles eventually heal. Link to post Share on other sites
Author Pasco08 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 I hope so. And i suppose its just development i mean i don't know he is just testing all kinds of buttons lately and just pushing the boundaries he used to never push ever! My parents are flying in on Tuesday and gonna stay about a week. My doctor thinks i may need surgery. Link to post Share on other sites
pureinheart Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 My girlfriend and I had been together since high school well she died a few months ago in a car wreck and we had a one year old son together. I have a great job and such. But now my girlfriends parents are coming after me and wants custody of my kid I don’t understand this and frankly it makes me angry because I let them see him whenever they want but that isn’t enough apparently. Can they really do this? Take my son away from me? I don’t know what I would do if I lost my son as well. Has anyone dealt with this? What should I do? They are claiming they have rights to him. I do have a Lawyer. Please accept my sincere apologies for all you have/are going through. I have not read your thread, although a first response would be that this is a cruel and sadistic act demonstrated by what you said in OP. I'm sure they have their reasons though, right or wrong. It depends on the judge, and how many connections they have...although typically, I don't think they can take him from you if everything is on the up and up...you are the maternal father, and that holds much water my friend...

CarrieT Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 My doctor thinks i may need surgery. Did you need the surgery? I was hoping you would report back to let us know how things have been going.
