G'day c2bh and  :welcomesign; You've sure come to the right spot. What type of D is your brother doing and what problems is he suffering from? You're right. There are plenty of people here with vast experience and they are always happy to help. You sound like a great sister!

Choosin2bHappy - I love your screen name!  We all have a choice and choosing to be happy is a good choice.  I am so sorry about your brother. He has had to deal with way too much.  I have a son your brothers age, and I can't imagine how hard this is for your whole family.  I hope someone can help you with your questions.  Keep posting.  We are here for support along with information.  How are you doing with all of this?  It must be very hard on you.   Glad you joined us!  Welcome to IHD   :2thumbsup;
