From the adoptive mom of McKenna today:
Had the appointment with the psychiatrist today and McKenna starts meeting with her next week. She suggested twice a week. I said , no once a week is all we can afford right now at $50 a pop! She seems really nice and excited to work with McKenna. She says my goals for McKenna of eating by mouth and getting the g-tube out are not necessarily going to be McKenna’s goals:( They will set the goals after meeting next week and some of their talks might be confidential and she won’t be able to report everything to me(!) I know there’s confidentiality but she’s 9 years old. This psychiatrist doesn’t use play therapy like in the past, but she says McKenna is old enough for other things and they will play a lot of board games while talking. It will be interesting to see what happens. Mac is very very smart and outgoing and hopefully one day everything will just click.
