i wish your dd well.
all of the frustration and nonsense!
doesn't make you just CRAZY?!

i do not miss the days of neonazi school employees (usually the ones that have jurisdiction over nothing so they take it out on the youngest and most vulnerable===the kids) every school dept has at least one in their midst.

She will be 12 in 3 months.

So...now get this, they couldn't give her 2 because the label did not say so, and they could not give her 1 tablet because the authorization form we sent in said "2" and not "1"

I could NOT authorize one tablet over the phone. They claimed just anyone could call and say they were the parent to give the verbal authorization, just as anyone could fax over the newly filled out authorization form.

Okay, whatever , called the doctor to fax them that HE authorized the 2 tablets. They assured me they would accept his authorization via fax. Hmm, but not the parents?

All of this did not really matter anyway. Received a phone call 2 hours later to come to school to pick her up she had a fever. Tonight it is up to almost 103. We "think" it is a cold. She is stuffed up and hacking. May be taking a ride to the doctors yet again this week. We had Keshi Yena for dinner tonight, so are thinking tropical relaxing thoughts.


We are still waiting to hear the fallout from yesterday's episode. One of dd's teachers witnessed my husband coming to the rescue and was just as upset as we were and knows the party involved and vowed to take care of it. Will out more on that tomorrow.

Thanks for listening.
