I Just Left A Message
July 4th, 2008
**Update**
Well it was the right phone and the right person. She called my home phone about 3 hours later and as soon as I said hello she started screaming at me. Every other word must have been the “f” word. She said how dare I call her phone and leave a message and that he doesn’t want a visit. I had a very difficult time understanding her. I calmly told her that yes he does want a visit. He told me so on Sunday and he told his sister last week that he did. She continued screaming something and then hung up. I calmly called her cell phone again and left another message. Gee, did she just tell me not to do that? Too bad so sad. She called again and said something about calling the police and other stuff I couldn’t understand and hung up again. So, I called her cell phone AGAIN and left a message giving her permission to call the police because I have nothing to hide and I was pretty sure she would end up being the one in trouble if she did call them. She hasn’t called again. Not once did I raise my voice to her or threaten her. She’s digging her own grave and I’m going to let her.
**End Upate**
I don’t know if it’s even to the right person or phone. I asked how she would feel if her daughter was staying with someone who wouldn’t let her see or talk to her. I then said Happy Fourth of July to you and hung up.
Hubby won’t let me just go get him. He says R knows he can come home and it’s up to him to make the next move. R’s phone has been dead since I talked to him Sunday. He’s obsessed with his phone. There is no way he would willingly leave it off for that long. I just want to scream.

1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (New International Version)
23For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.

Wayward Son
June 30th, 2008
Called wayward son Sunday afternoon and asked if he wanted a visit. I don’t think he was on speaker phone and he said yes. When he turned away to ask the woman he is staying with if she could drop him off at a neutral location later this week I could hear her in the background screaming at him. She was saying something about “not going to say anything about my daughters”. I never did hear her lower her voice or answer him. He told me he would call me back. I have a feeling he won’t. I really think he’s afraid of her. I’m trying to make this so it does not appear that we are trying to threaten them in any way, but if it comes down to it I will show up at their doorstep and take him anyway. He has missed all of his appointments with his psychiatrist since being with them in April and she is denying him his right to get treatment. He’s out of meds. If she wants to play hardball, bring it on. She doesn’t know who she is messing with. I don’t want to go in with guns blazing if I don’t have to. If he does not show up on Thursday as we discussed, then I’ll do what is necessary. I may even be able to find a police escort to her door through friends of friends. That’s not a guarantee though.
Bring it on.

He Just Called To Say He Loves Me
June 27th, 2008
Every now and then he calls when he hears “our song” on the radio. He just called and it sounds really crappy over the phone, but there was no mistaking “Stuck on You” by Lionel Richie.
I really needed that right now. I lubs my Mr. Bird.

Drastic Measures To Get My Oldest Back
June 27th, 2008
**Update**
We were able to get the last name and the address, directions and phone numbers of the family he is staying with. We’re one step closer to bringing him home.
****
It looks like it’s going to come down to having to kidnap my oldest back. He called home this week and spoke with K and told her he wants to come home and he can’t take it there anymore.
I asked my bosses and they will allow me to work from home while he stays with us, hopefully only a couple of weeks. We have been unable to talk to him since the phone call this week because the woman he is staying with listens in on all his conversations and won’t allow us to speak openly with him. He must have been alone for a change when he called and talked to K.
If we can find out where he is, I told J (his social worker) I would be willing to drive up and down their road until we see him and get him in the car even if he doesn’t have any clothes with him. We just need to get him out of there. I’ll have to cancel his phone and open a new account for him so she can’t contact him and I don’t think he’s memorized their phone number. This woman is certifiable. J was talking to R about calling me so we can arrange to bring him home and she got on the phone and started spewing obscenities at her and accusing her of saying things she wasn’t saying and also saying that she (the woman) is the only person trying to help him.
I can’t sit by and let this happen.
I’ve sent him an anonymous (no return phone so she doesn’t get my cell number) text message saying we want a visit. Hopefully that will work.
