Chapter 27
Behavioral Health in the Community
The principal escorted Audrey, aged 13, an overweight girl with long blonde braids into the rural middle school nurses office. Ms. Schmitz will help you, Audrey. The principal signaled for the girl to sit down and then handed Ms. Schmitz, RN, a note and left. The note bulleted three lines: Disruptive, fighting, teacher requests a home visit.
Ms. Schmitz extended a wet facecloth while assessing Audreys appearance. Audrey wiggled on the wooden chair wearing torn and too small clothing, tennis shoes with holes, and a full backpack. Place this on your eyes, and see if it helps. The crying childs tongue poked out the right side of her mouth and she swallowed several times as she reached for the cloth. Are you hurt? asked the nurse.
Audrey shook her head. I have a sore throat though. She shrugged her shoulders. I wish I were dead. I could jab a pencil in my eye and bleed to death. That would fix them.
You sound pretty upset. Tell me what happened.
Brian made fun of my tics. I cant help it. I am so tired of people laughing at me, my clothes and my mother. I hit him with a book because he wouldnt stop. I bet he never thought I would hit him. I am not a bully, Brian is. A fresh bout of sobbing doubled the girl in half.
The nurse read Audreys health record. Learning disabilities, ADHD, Tourettes disorder, prenatal drug exposure, R. 20/80 and L. 20/100 vision, a normal scoliosis screening, and free lunch eligibility. The nurse searched for a telephone number. I need to call your mother.
The school secretary said, There is no phone. I can give you the case workers contact.
Momma is sick, said Audrey and swallowed. She wont answer the door.
