Well, they're going to give dad another hearing, on December 1. My mom was really upset about this yesterday, she was counting on them telling him no. I told her to get over it, that this is dad's new fixation (getting out of the hospital, rather than looking for bombs, bugs or lasers). That he will continue to try to get out and she can either give up and let him come home or stand up, take control and say hell no, get him medicated and on the road to whatever recovery he can achieve. She had a melt down yesterday, hopefully she's better today.
