Craziness

     Since my last post a week ago, I have gained another head full of gray hair. The little one, SaraAn has caused most of it. Most people would say, what else can go wrong for you? I simply just laugh and say lots more could because it always does. SaraAn just had her stitches removed today that were put in on Saturday while getting the boys ready for a bball game and still preparing for Austin's bday party while on about an hour sleep. Her listening skills just were not working well when I kept repeating myself to leave the dog alone, well she will now have a scar on her face to prove the point that she should of listened. Back to ER two days after that, three bad bloody noses,I was  told to take her there. Of course while there it stopped, now off to ENT on Monday, not sure what they can do, but this was not the first time with this problem. Not half an hour after having the stitches out today, she starts bleeding again. Luckily it stopped quickly. As if that is not enough, Austin lost TWO teeth on the same days as her ER visits. What are the chances of that? Thankfully they did not bleed too much. Now tomorrow off to CHOP for Austin's big hemotology visit. Prayers it all goes well. My biggest concern is his weight, he has lost quite a bit since being on ADHD meds. What mega drama.
     On a good note, the kids made it through another year at school. They all did very well and I should be proud, especially of Henry. His first year almost completely mainstreamed, he got all A's and one B+ on his report card. That is a proud moment, seeings where we have come from with him. Now off to 5th grade. That is so unbelievable. Austin going to 2nd and SaraAn to 1st. Where did the years go? Kind of sad to see another chapter end. Summer, going to be crazy, but hopefully fun. New things in store especially for Austin. Going to overnight camp for the first time, all kids with bleeding disorders. I know he will be well taken care of, it's the same camp Henry goes to for the week for kids in the spectrum and Henry loves it.I bet I will be holding back tears that day. On a note about me for all those keeping track, I lost another 4.6 lbs and now I have lost a total of 17lbs. in just three weeks. I hope it continues for the sake of my knees that are really hurting a lot lately. I am hoping the more I lose the less pressure I will be putting on them and I will not be in so much pain. Prayers this week for good outcome for Austin at CHOP tomorrow, for SaraAn's appt at ENT on Monday, and for things to settle down a little especially in the medical sense for the kids. I realize having kids with needs was going to be a lot of work, but somedays I do fell my strength is running low. At the end of each day I just thank God I made it through another one and just ask for more strength for the next. Good night all.
