Oh, Mag, I should have of known, you, or Kat, would ask. (I kinda figured ) Well, last Sunday, I went to Cornerstone . (I know what you're thinking. . . WAIT... this was just for overnight respite .) (Beth T, the O.T., what were you saying bottom Respite?) (My parents had to go to a meeting.) Well, anyway, During the first meal, I had there, this time, the staff asked me if I was born this way. I broke down crying. I told a good friend of mine, Karen Latham this when I was back home on Tuesday. She suggested that I tell Peg. After I called and left a message on Peg’s answering service . I asked my parents if I needed to have their permission to talk to Peg. Their answer was yes. I broke down again. I feel that I shouldn’t need permission from anybody to talk to my case-manager. Later that day, my friend, Ronda, called and wanted to talk to me. I refused to talk to her because she sometimes makes me depressed and you, Pat, said before don’t talk to her when I am depressed and me Mom got after me when I refused to talk to Ronda Another thing that happened at Cornerstone , I was arBarguing with another client, where I live normally (outside of Cornerstone) the staff had to get the phone book to prove to the another client where I live. (The another client used to live in the town that I currently live in.)
