Busy Day - New Focus

It's been a busy day. I finally got my meeting with the dietician that I won through the Biggest Loser Support group this morning:
* Try Dinner before workout & Snack after workout
* Increase breakfast to approximately 400 calories (adds 100)
* I may be salt sensitive, need to cut my salt intake IN HALF (1500 mg day).

Then I met with Chase's case manager through the local Developmental Disabilities office, to work on transition to adult services:
1) Contact the adult disabilities agency.
2) Contact Social Security for Intake Appointment.
3) Choose a Brokerage
4) Guardianship - I guess this is necessary - they can hold IEP meetings without us present after he turns 18.


Then I went to the back to inquire about getting him set up with a student checking account. Which is prompting me to get him a state ID card - I just looked it up - it costs $44.50.

The attorney fee for the Guardianship is going to be $800 - $1000. Welcome to life as the parent of an adult I guess.

I'm excited about the dietician changes, I hope these will help me to stay on track. I'm not excited about all the work I need to do to transition him to an adult.
