HELLO OUT THERE ANYONE HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well lets see things here. Both kids are doing great. D.J. is getting ready to enter the 6th grade at the high school here. April will be a senior here shortly too. They get out of school here on May 20th. April's 17th birthday party will be on May 21st. I think that they have done better here then even they figured they would. D.J. has a doctors apt tomorrow morning, it's a medication check. So far they are helping and I am starting to see my sweet little boy come back. Just a little adjustment and I think we will be all set. I am still learning more and more every day about Asperger's syndrome. I have a permanent IEP for him and his grades are better then they were when this school system tried to ignore his IEP. In the mainstream class his highest grade was a C and now a C is his lowest grade. Howard is doing good and is taking his insulin 2 times a day and it's helping but I really feel that they need to increase his insulin just a little. I am doing ok I guess. I had to go back to the back doctor and he has told me that no matter what just because you have back surgery does not mean that all is well.I have arthrithis (sp) in both my hips which I have known about. But I also have nerve damage. I know that there is nothing that can be done about this. So now it's muscle relaxers and pain pills every night. But if it stps the pain then I don't care. I know that unless the disc just above the orignal surgery site goes there will be nothing more they can do for me. I don't complain about it because I know this is the hand I was dealt. I keep going everyday and if it gets to bad then I have a walker and a cain that I can use.
I wanted you all to know because I know that you all care for me as I do you all. I don't want anyone to feel sorry for me as there are other things to be sorry for. I have a good handle on this and I will keep doing what I need to do to have this taken care of. I have alot going on this next school year. We have senior pictures, prom, graduation, and the senior cruise... I guess you can see by all of this that things haven't slowed down any at all. I will post here more often as I have 2 things that needed to get done finished. That was getting the room ready for the kids. April's was the easiest because her room was the craft room. D.J.'s was the hardest because years and years and years of memories was in that room. I had to go through every box,bag chest and robe to throw out things that we no longer needed or wanted. I found very old pictures of me as a kid that I have decided that seeing mom no longer wants I am going to keep. I found baby pictures of Jennifer and I am keeping those also....
I am still not talking to my youngest brother J.C. but that is his thing. He wants to be the asshole and act like I do not exist I could care less. My older brother I am not longer talking to because of some shit he pulled and well I don't think what he did was right. So I take care of my parents and my family. I am busy and I love it....
Well I am now going to close this... I love you all.. I miss you all too...
Barb how are you feeling? I can't wait to talk to you again on line
