I'll never understand the postal service. Rather than put this item with the rest of the oversized items that are sent to my PO Box, they decided to destroy it instead by cramming into the tiny square box that was way too small... Good thing there wasn't anything important in there.....but unfortunately there was... 😡
It's not that often that I must make a public statement in regards to being attacked. As you are aware, I've had a Facebook stalker for quite some time. I know who this person is but can't prove anything on my end. Facebook would be able to prove it if there was actually recourse for being harassed in this manner. Since my Facebook profile has been verified, I haven't had any issues with my posts being reported and my url blocked. Unfortunately, this person has now moved onto harassing my wife. Lizze runs her own blog at www.themamaspace.com... At some point last night, her url became blacklisted or blocked by Facebook, because it's been reported as violating Facebook's community guidelines. This is the same thing that I've been battling since…
It's already been a hectic morning but I did receive the call I've been waiting on from Emmett's pediatrician. The long and short of things is that Emmett will be seen at noon today. Lizze and I dropping Gavin off with my Mom on the way. We can't risk exposing Gavin to whatever bugs are floating around the pediatrician's office. Hopefully, we'll learn some ways of helping him to feel better. I can see us getting a referral to Gastroenterology, which wouldn't be a bad idea. I don't know how excited Emmett's going to be about going to the doctors but there's no choice st this point. He's missing way too much school and besides that, he's absolutely miserable. I'm looking forward to this appointment because I really worry about…
Emmett isn't feeling well again this morning and rather than encourage him to go to school and at least try to see if he'll feel better, we're keeping him home. The main reason we're keeping him home is because we'd have to pull him out anyway for his appointment this morning. I don't know what time his appointment is because I haven't heard back yet but I'm supposed to hear something within the next hour. As I mentioned previously, I'm at a loss with the situation. Emmett is not making this up and he's truly miserable. To the absolute best of my knowledge, he's not trying to get out of going to school either. No one who knows him thinks that at all. I just wish we could figure out…
I still haven't heard from the doctor as to what time Emmett's supposed to be seen in the morning. I'm supposed to call back if I don't hear from them before 9 AM. This should be a simple appointment and likely resulting in a referral to Gastroenterology at Akron Children's Hospital. The most important thing at this moment is ensuring that there are no life threats or serious issues that need to be addressed. I don't think there are but we want to error on the side of caution because what parent wouldn't. Once we get to that point, we will likely get an appointment with Gastroenterology at Akron Children's Hospital. There are a couple things that we are going to need to rule out, and they are more serious…
Received these the other day from Sashkaco, just in time for Awareness month. Some of these will be donated to the my kids school to help raise funds for the students. This is a school for kids with Autism and the funds raised at the next family night will go to a special event for the kids at the end of the year. These kids work so hard and they deserve to just be kids for a little while. These are amazingly handcrafted and by skilled artisans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. Each purchase helps to empower these women to rise above poverty through fair trade. The bracelets are absolutely gorgeous and I have absolutely no idea how they build these because I can't find a single seam. They…
Emmett didn't make it to school today again, because he's not feeling well. I've been running around this morning but I've got a minute to publish an update before I go walking. Elliott got to school on time and without issue. Gavin's bloodwork was drawn and we are waiting for his numbers to come back. I'm unsure of where we stand in regards to his numbers right now, so I'm a bit nervous for those results. Gavin's becoming increasingly frustrating to work with on his IVIG infusions because he wants things done a certain way but unfortunately, it doesn't work like that. There's some flexibility within the IVIG infusion process but there are fundamental parts that include zero amounts of wiggles room. That being said, once his infusion was started,…
This post was meant to publish last night but I ended up falling asleep. At this point I'm unsure of what we will be doing with Emmett today. I'm hoping to get him into the doctors if he's still not feeling well when he wakes up. The poor kid was up until almost 1 AM. What I do know for sure, is that our morning is busy already. Gavin will need his IVIG infusion first thing in the morning. He will also need his bloodwork done immediately after dropping the boys off at school. I'm really, really hoping that Emmett is feeling better and that he makes it to school. He's been keeping up with his makeup work and that's helps to keep him current. Regardless of how he's feeling…
