Dakota

Dakota was having a very hard time at school last week.  Friday I was called by the assistant principal to come get him.  He said alot of rude things plus said he didn't want to be here and nobody would miss him.   They suggested I take him to Cedar Springs Hospital for an evaluation.  After the evaluation they admitted him.  They took him his meds because he was misdiagnosed.  He does not have ADHD or depression.  He has childhood onset bipolar disorder.  They put him on a new medicine watched him for a few days and sent him home.  He was there for 5 days.  He's home now and seems much better.  I hope this is a new beginning to a great life for him.  Tomorrow is the last day of school.  I'm taking him to school to turn in books and say goodbye to his friends and teachers.
