So, today I get a call from the Tennessee dept holding Chuck's Medicaid up. They can't find any evidence before he was 18 of Mental Disability. You see, it was the 50's and his foster father didn't report or even take Chuck to a doctor when he hit him in his head with a baseball hat. He ALSO managed barely to graduate highschool without to a Special Needs class. IT WAS THE 50'S!!!!!! There wouldn't be. Then, you'd get away with killing your kid if they were "Disrespectful".
So, I have to start the process over again without mentioning his Head Trauma.

I literally had no words....

Eyeroll!

I had a concussion in the 60s. In a different state than I live it now. I was 6. I haven't the foggiest clue where to find records or that.

I was also diagnosed ADD, again in grade school, in that other state. No records available for that, either.

How the f are older people who have moved around supposed to even find their childhood records, assuming they still exist?

Bugger. Typical red tape bs. It’s unfortunate there isn’t a record mentioning his condition post-50’s. Like everyone these days we have to play the spirit crushing game of bureaucratic roulette.

I hope you don't have to pay for that ... Personally, I'd have "forgotten" to tell them.

:-( I hope that was a blip. And that sleep will help.
