miracle child - part 2

so we left off in 2008 - thing had settled down and it appeared marcus was on his way to recovery- so i thought in march 2009 and october 2009 we had episodes of very aggressive behavior and violence- out of control- not just at home at school at church- not little things either -
holes in walls- 8 year old little boys can be very strong when they have adrenaline going through their body- restraining him was all i could do and it was tiring so very tiring-
he was in the crisis center teice in 2009 and he appeared we were doing fabulous- track was going on- he started soccer - school was good- still was getting referrals but not so many- we had found child care and not be booted out at all. we made it through march of 2010 and was doing well - school year started and he was loving it and was having some issues but nothing crazy
then october 2010 came and like a bolt of lightening it hit and hit hard- th ephone call came and said marcus was brought back to school and was in the time out room- acting very violent.
i was on my way to school- and for 45 minutes after i got there he was in the TO room. not able to get control. when he finally did he was exhausted. we left. i reminded him on the way home more then half way- that he needed to do his HW and then get ready for church. and you thought i ended his world- we had to pull over and for 30 minutes at least we waited- in the meantime i had called his coach and he came to help and then i had to do the most difficult thing i had to call 911 on my child - hardest decision but saved our lives- the next 3 months marcus spent the majority of his time in the crisis center he was out of control- i got to know the staff quite well during those times- they are awesome. for me the most draing emotional physical and mental time- why was this happening and why could i not have normalcy in the house- oh the aggression for us was his normalcy during this time however I did  not like the normalcy-

we had decided meaning myslelf the doctors his school behavioral specialist that he - that we needed something more permanent- the thought of losing my son overwhelmed me with pain- i did not know where all of this would lead too. we got the approval for residential care with in a month and within a week Marcus and I were preparing to take on the next journey of our family... it was a very overwhelming - during all this time - I continued to work- I continued to stay involved with the church ministries- life kept going ...

stay tuned for the rest of the story and how the miraculous happened
