Hi jf,RN they dissected cats in my school, too. I wouldn't do it, though. I'm allergic to cats.

I want air fresheners

I guess those of us that have never had to be in an instution at all in there life (including me) we should be very thankful for what we have. Some of these people (from what I've heard & read here) they had nothing not even families that cared about them. But like others have mentioned here in this thread too ....I agree with Lynne that I would rather be there than be gone.....but than yet I never had to live there some of the Pennhurst residence my tell a much different story? I guess that is there story to tell really.......my heart goes out to them though......

If I smell that I'm gonna be sick

EW What's that on the floor? I love basketball.

pookie,

Is there a specific DSS you would write to or just the general boston headquarters address?

What the...?

If I am not mistaken that is how the seclusion rooms on the ward I was on looked like, I was on ward D...friggin god dam scary for any child, and the mentally world is horrible to kids, I mean jail is so much better then this place ever was..thank god it closed down, my boyfriend almost died in there because of physical abuse by a couple staff members,...thank god he was abkle to escape, I would be totally lost without him and until this day he is still in my life, thank god, cause he is the only person who can really understand me...

To Larry,
jJust to add one more thing, you need tto get the letter notorized as well when sending the requet for your records....I hope I was able to help you out in this matter....

To Larry,
You can get your records, I was there from 82-84 and I got my records, the problems is that they black out al l the staff's names who said what about you to whom and things like that, but, for the most part you can figure out for yourself. All you have to do is write to DSS and get them, you need to send a coy of your license or picture ID, a copy of your birth certificate to prove it's you and tell them the years your were at Gaebler and they by law have to send you a copy of your complete and total history there, I did it when I turned 21 or 22years old and I got them all, then aIso got all my records from DSS and everything with them and then I went to St.Germaine Lawrence School in Arlington,mass for a couple of years and I got all those recoeds too. If you have any problems, let me know, I will helpo you....
