On the other hand, if "seriously ill" simply means she has symptoms that could come back without proper treatment, then you are basically correct about that. That needs to be taken very seriously so there is not a relapse, and she's been stable and asymptomatic for getting very close to a year now, according to her doctors (which I'm just passing on here). And those doctors are the State's independent experts and her treating physician that I'm referring to.
That being said, you should seriously drop your assertion that I'm somehow ill. There are many doctors and experts already involved, the kids were required to be evaluated/counseled, and I went as well (otherwise the court would have ORDERED it for all of us, but it didn't because I had already set it up within a couple days of what happened).
I've learned that first impressions for people knew to this case are hard. But the kids' counselor, for example, shares my basic point of view (she is the person quoted in the LTE). There's a learning curve to be sure, and my OP is already too long to start quoting experts and putting all of that out there.
But since you're willing to give advice, no matter what we may assume my level of denial or whatever is, the basic questions of the OP remain the same:
1. ON THE PAST. Why would denial or the lack thereof affect what one thinks about all the various things that happened in the case? I NEVER suggested they were personal, rather, it is a function of system dynamics, this is more or less what they would do to everyone in a case involving children. But then, if I had been ready to testify to criminal guilt, I can't see everything on that list happening. So it seems that at least a few of the things on the list are likely related to the substance of my testimony. CERTAINLY the accusation that I am in DENIAL is tightly wound up with the substance of what I'm saying. How do these things legitimately affect whether one gets victim's rights or not?
2. On THE FUTURE. Given what my daughter's feelings are that are shown in her card in the OP, and given when she is released the doctors will be OK with supervised visitation (since they have already said so), should there be supervised visitation? If not, why not? If not, how do I manage my daughter and her feelings?
