Marcus had a good week (no restraints, no MHAs) until he knew when his Thanksgiving home visit would be. Poor guy got overly anxious about messing up while at home and had several outbursts. He's worried about stealing food and disappointing us. I feel for him worrying so much about making a mistake. How do we ensure he will be successful? I talked to him on the phone to see whether he wanted to shorten the visit, but he didn't. Mostly he wants to have our usual Thanksgiving ritual (ritual is very important to him) and most importantly, he wants to stay long enough to eat all the pie! Wish us luck.
