Yeah, Ivy used to not let us wash her pillowcase. We'd have to sneak wash it while she was in the bath. LOL! She's gotten more easygoing about that with time. Our reluctance to use respite care stems more from the vast fear that, having a completely nonverbal and compliant child, there's such horrible potential for abuse. She'd never say or indicate if someone was harming her, and she wouldn't tell them no. We'll have to trust the person very much, and we don't trust easy. Sigh.
