An Update

After being gone for a week, my troubled student returned. It was so good to see her, and her classmates eagerly welcomed her back, too.

Sadly, after just two days with us, she is gone again. Her mother reports that she will be out of school for at least a week, and may need to go into a long term facility.

Still absolutely no signs of any problems at school - none whatsoever. I find it difficult to match what the mother says happens at home with the smiling, happy child I see at school.

I am so sad for her. Worried, too. What is going on?
