Please pray for my son and for our family.

Details are here, as I also need advice on what to do next.

Thank you!

----------------------------------------------
~~ Update

Yesterday, we were told that out of the thousands of children the doctor, psychologist, and social service worker have dealt with in their career, our child is one of the worst cases they have ever seen. They wanted to have him sent immediately to another hospital for a 48 hour mental health evaluation.

Today, I was able to gather the strength from your responses to take my son back for the inpatient evaluation.
Before leaving, I called our priest for his prayers. Then I went and visited the Blessed Sacrament begging God to intervene. I had no idea how to stop the ball from rolling.

Ladies, we received that miracle!

The good lab results combined with the noticeable improvement in my son who ate dinner last night and breakfast before leaving to the hospital led the doctor to change her mind regarding the urgency of admitting my son into the hospital!!! Praise God! He will receive outpatient treatment!   

Thank you all for your prayers and advice. I'm going to read through the links shared now, and Heather I will PM you in the morning.

I am praying, especially today. May the Holy Spirit take the reins on this quickly and firmly so that today's events are guided by His grace!

Praying for you and your family. And also for the doctors treating him that they might truly have his best interest at heart and can help guide you to a plan to get him back on a healthy path and home. As a mother, I'm so sorry for your deep hurt and pain right now.

Deo Gratias!!!!

I read your update and my heart is overjoyed! Your son will receive the help he needs, and I can hear in your words the peace you feel from the burden having been lifted of an inpatient admission! I can just imagine your relief! My prayers will continue for all of you and will include your son's healthcare professionals.

Thanks be to God for His answered prayers, His deep love and generosity for His children, and His tender, attentive care of our needs!

to you Mom! You hung in there yesterday, saw it through, and I know it wasn't easy for you!
