Really Universe can you give us a break?

So I am officially an Instructor for Orillia First Aid and Safety Training.  (YAY!)

I was supposed to teach my first large class over the weekend.  Instead I spent Saturday morning in the ER.
Why?
Because the Universe decided that I needed a curve ball thrown at me.  Walking down the snow covered back porch stairs I slipped half way up and landed smack down on my tail bone and slide to the bottom.
I was holding the railing.  I figure it is the only reason I ended up bruised not broken.

So what is the difference between healing a badly bruised to the bone tail bone versus a broken one?
I get to heal 4 weeks sooner than a broken tail bone.  Otherwise the healing process (ice, taking it easy, cushions for sitting etc) is exactly the same.

This meant I wasn't able to help teach the week day Standard First Aid Course this week.  Mainly because I couldn't get William back and forth to school and because this week I really needed to just take it easy.  I have full confidence in my ability to teach the next weekend course and the re-certification classes next week.  Tomorrow I will teach the Safe @Home Alone class in the evening.  Fortunately we do the CPR and First aid at the end of that class.

And while I heal I get the joy of being super paranoid about whether I caused the pilonidal cyst to reoccur.
Because I was told by the nurses, the surgeon and the people on the forums of those suffering pilonidal cysts that a direct blow to the area during the first 2 years post surgery can trigger a recurrence.

So far I have been told by a trusted source who humored me and looked to make sure there was no tell tale redness and swelling of an abscess setting in that I have a rainbow bruising of deep purple, red, blue and green across my nether regions and swelling that would accompany such bruising, but no redness or heat around the surgery scarred area.

Which is a relief, but doesn't make me any less paranoid.

My son is having a massive worry fit because he thinks I actually have a cyst again.  Took me a bit to get through to him that I fell down.  Though I was honest in telling him I could no longer guarantee the cyst wouldn't return.  This led to tears and worrying about not being able to go swimming and such this summer.
He was reassured that if the cyst were to return I wouldn't be having surgery in the summer again, ever.

Beavers is going to be interesting as we have both a Tobogganing night and a Skating night scheduled for the next two meetings.  I have already told our group that I will be standing at the bottom of the toboggan hill cheering them on this week.
Ice skating is in two weeks, we shall see how I am feeling.  Thank goodness the roller skating night is in April.

Conveniently the cushions etc they recommend you use to sit on for bruised/broken tail bone are the exact same cushions one uses when dealing with a pilonidal cyst.

But Universe, I don't need this crap!  I need to work!  I also need to be able to get the stuff that needs doing with regards to my son's situation and his school.

Tomorrow I get to wait for phone calls to be returned otherwise I will be leaving messages again and I will keep this up until I get a response.

I cannot --I refuse to believe, that my son is solely responsible for what is happening in his classroom right now. I seriously think his teachers have written him off as a problem kid and now it is boiling down to a battle of wills and control between them and him.  And that unconsciously or consciously they are setting him up to react the way he does.

How is it he never had these issues last year, at home in a home day care setting (including coping with a very aggressive 12 year old autistic boy who functioned at a 4 year old level socially) or during 2 years of preschool?
You'd think during all of that we would have seen extreme aggressive behaviour.  Heck he wasn't even displaying this behaviour when he started at this school.  It started somewhere around mid November and has just continued to escalate from there.

And what is being reported to me by the VP and by my son doesn't make sense to me as a person who has a background in working with children.

If it is known that a child struggles at a specific time in the routine ie clean up time and they are struggling over trying to save something they built out of a blocks etc and another child destroying it on purpose causing the other child to react emotionally and after the third time violently that wouldn't you then intercede or make sure a staff member was there to oversee that things don't get out of hand?  To encourage the one trying to save the creation to take it apart himself or just taking the creation and setting it aside till later and then taking it apart and replacing it in the bucket?
Why force my son to repeat this scenario to the detriment of himself and now classmates and teachers over half a dozen times???
Why would you force a child to sit away from his peers on a chair during circle time because he focuses better, but when he refuses because he wants to be with his peers force the issue including him vocalizing how upset he is and how unfair he views it to the point he kicks the chair into the lunch tables (was reported to me as throwing, he maintains he kicked two chairs  away from the group and threw nothing)?  Why wouldn't you as one of three members of the staff in the room let the child sit with his peers with the stipulation that if he started to be silly or lose focus that he'd have to come to the chair?
Number one tenant to working with any group of children or parenting for that matter: Choose your battles wisely.
This was not a battle that needed to be forced yet apparently this plays out pretty much every afternoon and now it has escalated to the point where my son is reacting overly emotionally to what he preceives to be unfair treatment.
Not only that he can't tell me what the classroom expectations are for his classroom.  Last year he could name me off the whole list -Be a good friend.  Being a good friend means sharing, listening to each other, respecting each other's space, helping someone when they need help, comforting someone if they look sad or hurt.  Hands were for helping, playing, writing, drawing and kept to themselves.  Mistakes were okay, but in the future you had to work toward the right choice and the right choice directly tied into the expectations I just listed above.
Right now when asked about what is expected of him in his current class, all he can tell me is "to do good things."  And he can't even give me a real list of what "good things" looks like other then keep your hands to yourself and no hurting each other.
Heck the kid is on his 4th version of a reward system and he can't even tell me what he is getting the bloody stars for.
It's important for the average kid to have clear expectations.
It's even more important, imperative really, for a child with ADHD to have clear and concise expectations.
Otherwise they can't remember them to begin with.  And what are we reinforcing if he doesn't have a clue why he is getting the reward??

And so I sit waiting to hear back from the intake nurse for the School Success Program, the School Board and the Principal to my son's school.

But I suspect that I will be following through with what I wanted to do back before the winter break is going to be come a reality.  Either he will be transferring to the other school or he won't be going to school at all.
