Mrs. Halsted said “You have been through 1 caregiver. Again, your mom wanted to wait until Christmas time when she was 65 to work on your independent-living life. ” Elizabeth said crying “Why?” Mrs. Halsted said “Oh my gosh gosh. Number one. She is going to be busy with the Halloween drive for the Rise And Shine Foundation coming up. ” She interrupted Mrs. Halsted.

Elizabeth said crying “Maybe she can sew me 2 pumpkin blankies for my new room here. “ Mrs. Halsted said “No. You don’t deserve any blankets made for you by the way that you’re acting again. “ Elizabeth said crying “I want blankies made by you. I want pillows too. “ She said “No means no. Go find someone else to make you blankets. I want you to work on not talking like a baby. “ Elizabeth said crying “I refuse to. “

Mrs. Halsted said “I don’t know then. You are a big puzzle to everyone. Everyone on your PSP team that is. The team doesn’t know if they should make you homebound. Everyone knows that you want that but that would mean your mom would have to hire a caregiver and you have been one already. We are in a total rut about your future, home and school. ” Elizabeth said crying “Oh. Why?” Mrs. Halsted said “Gosh gosh. ”
