I've tried to be consistent - but whenever his mother disagrees with me on, well, anything she considers important, she disappears - moves, changes her number, doesn't tell anyone in the family where she is or how to get in touch with her. I had last spoken to her son in November of 2001, only to not speak with him again until this past December, when he showed up at my grandmother's on Christmas. M cut off all contact with the family for 2 years, but then, all of a sudden, resurfaced and started calling and visiting and whatnot. And as I told the nurse I was speaking to this evening, my concern with telling people on the treatment team what I know is that M will find out and then won't let me see her son anymore. Which means I can't be there for him, even if I want to be.
But, in the meanwhile, I'll do what I can. It's just difficult.
Thanks, falls.
