Lizze has been hooked up to the IV for about two hours now. There’s no room for me to sit with her so I’m hanging out in the lobby until she’s done. I’m allowed to walk back and check on her but I have to be very, very quiet because everyone in there is dealing …

I was an awful parent (by my standards) this morning and I feel horrible
It was a very chaotic morning and I regret a great deal of it. We were trying to get everyone out the door and nothing was going right. The boys were being kids and I simply had no patience. Elliott is at that age where we aren’t sure how much is Autism, anxiety and depression …

This is an unbelievably busy week
It’s going to be a seriously busy week and it’s going to involve a great deal of driving. Elliott has an appointment at Akron Children’s Hospital in the morning.

Managing #anxiety and #panicattacks can be extremely challenging
It’s been a pretty decent day thus far. I didn’t sleep very well last night but I took a short nap this morning and feel much better. The boys got off to school without any trouble and Lizze had her first of two doctors appointments. There was about a 30 minute break between appointments and …
