Urgh
From da mom
Urgh urgh....
I think we're over the illness here but I can tell you we're buying stocks in Scott Tissue or Kleenex or something because my nose is _done_. The cough is still lingering but by no means are we barking like dogs. However my mom is sick now. Sorry ma.
I have had a very roller coaster week. Financially its been getting tighter and tighter as my savings are slowly dwindling and seeing not much coming in until the beginning of May. At least I go back to work on June 4th. Then when I was all doom n gloom, I got a cheque yesterday for reimbusement 100% for my new glasses. At MOST I thought I'd get back $150 and I thought it would be much later in the month that I'd see it. So it was a little cheerier. Then I found out about 8 hours ago that things could get a little tougher if things go the way I think they will.
But then again, I start doing a 3 week contract on April 1 that should make things slightly less gloomy.
Then I start thinking about selling my house, moving to Kelowna (with or without my parents) and not working any more than I have to and living on the profits of my house. (I bought for 94,000 in 1994... tax assessment is 290,000 and we all know thats lower than market) Then I think "What if I hate it? I can't come back to Calgary and get a house..." So maybe I'll wait for the parents to move and visit lots first.
Then I sit back and watch my little miracle. Today I managed to get yoghurt into my little monster without so much as a fuss, spit or gag. I got beef barley soup into her and she loved it. One day we will do this smooth stuff all the time like it was nothing.
She's 10x her birth weight now. 22.8 lbs! Helmet free and so close to walking its scary! She gets very brave and lets go of whatever she is holding onto and then lunges at someone/something to catch her. She doesn't crawl much to get where she wants to go anymore.. she just cruises furniture, or if there is too much of a gap, she will get down, crawl the space and get back up again to cruise the rest of the way.
We have followup appointments with the neurologist, the plagiocephaly specialist, the physiotherapist and the occupational therapist, but I think that at this point, we're almost done with everyone until she's 2 for reassessment. We will still see speech pathology until she starts school but for the most part, she is done with living at Children's Hospital. It is too bad they don't offer yearly parking passes.
I have alot more to say but... really...this isn't the place.
