Insomnia again
Another night having trouble sleeping. This time I think it's more of the family issue.
Talking to my dad the other night, he was telling me that Mom is still constantly calling up my sister, telling her to make doctor's appointments in Florida. He also mentioned that a neurologist in Kansas City had earlier told my parents that no amount of second opinions was going to change the diagnosis (or in this case, lack thereof). There are a number of treatments that may or may not work; the only way to find out is to try them. However many of them only work temporarily...ugh. Jess is just frustrated because she's tired of being paraded around from doctor to doctor only to be told the same thing by everyone: they just don't know what's wrong with her. Mom even tried to get me to badger her when I went down to Florida for my birthday. I told her as long as she got eye exams every once in a while, I wouldn't worry.
The only thing to worry about is if her vision gets worse. Then she'll have to choose between a very risky surgery or being blind for life...not an easy choice I guess. But hopefully, things won't get worse.
In good news, I hung out with Ledd and Craig and watched the movie Hancock for a second time (I saw it last night with my dad). Still good a second time :) He's so sweet, holding my hand the whole time, even when I got a bit fidgety because of my back (damn you, scoliosis!)
I have a test tomorrow for my summer class, and I studied like crazy so hopefully I won't bomb it. This week is going to be a little crazy but...meh. I can handle it.
I tried to talk myself into sleeping right after I got home from Ledd's but...grah, to no avail. I can't stop gritting my teeth from stress.
