Thanks friends...Getting my Dander up was just what was needed. I talked to many people about the Behavor Center telling me they could not keep Jim anylonger & they would have to send him to the city. I made it clear to them that I would not allow this. Liz Doyle from the Alz Assoc. heard my story & she also went to bat for me. Got a Tuesday appoligizing to me for making me feel pressured. My son & I had a meeting with them todays. They have agreed to keep Jim longer until they can get him stabilized so that he may be able to go to NH. I also brought a list of good centers that are withing a 50 mile radius that has alz special units. They were surprized at how much I know about the disease & the Meds. Thanks you all for giving me the strength & knowledge to fight them. I did see Jim. He looks so old & tired it broke my heart but I do not think he knew who we were...Will let you all know the final outcome...Carol
