Miss Katie has been given her 30 day notice at her group home. The owner of the agency wants her out. It changed hands last summer, handed down to the son of the former owner. It hasn't gone well obviously.
In April he threatened Katie with eviction. We did everything asked of us, doctor visits, med changes, meetings, so many fucking meetings and consultation with a behavioral specialist through social services and health services. The agency and staff did nothing different.
Then Katie broke her arm on Monday and I wasn't informed until 24 hours later while she was on her way to the hospital. When I asked questions, I was accused of the following, " The recent incident with Katie breaking her arm again. It appears that our explanation on how this incident happened was not received with much belief from her primary guardian. The guardian believes Katie broke her arm not by tossing herself off the recliner but earlier in the day. We won't know for sure exactly how but the disbelief shows a lack of confidence in us."
And this from the incident report, "Staff did not witness how Katie hurt her arm." She has two caregivers taking care of her and nobody saw how she hurt her arm!
So Katie has a broken arm and has to move again. I got the email last night just before I went to bed, so I didn't sleep much. My eyes are swollen from crying but that part is done now. Now I need to fight for my daughter again.
