One with the flu

What began as a sore throat yesterday, has turned ed into a stomach bug. Mr. Elliott Richard puked this morning, all over the side of his bed.  :-( Lizze has a couple appointments today so I'll be on my own for at least part of the day.  I'm really hoping to be able to get my tablet review up and get my next giveaway posted by the weekend.

Good news on the home front

I wanted to let everyone know that despite all the setbacks of late, there have been a few victories and big ones at that.  Our tax return came in very early, and I mean very early. As of yesterday, I was able to pull us out of foreclosure status on our mortgage.  We aren't completely caught up but it was huge progress and that takes away a bit of stress from the mix.  I was also able to get caught up on some very important bills as well.  There are still many left to be brought current but again, this is progress. There are many things that unfortunately, fell by the wayside because of massive expense we had with the mortgage and a few other unexpected things. We weren't able to…

Today’s #Autism Victory: Naptime

Sometimes, it's the tiniest victories that have the biggest impact. Today for example was made a tiny bit easier by the fact that Emmett actually took a nap this afternoon.  He fell asleep while watching Netflix on the TV.  He's pretty much outgrown the whole nap thing but still does better after having one.  I'm thankful that he fell asleep for about an hour.  Not only did that give me a small break, but it put him in a much better mood for the rest of the day.  This was a tiny victory but one that had a positive impact on everyone.  :-) This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.

Headache Infusion: Completed

Lizze just arrived home from her final infusion this afternoon.  My Mom brought her home cause I had Elliott home sick. She basically went straight to bed without saying too much.  I do know that her liver and kidneys can't take a 4th day and that's why they won't allow it.  Her pain has basically been cut in half.  She began at a 12 and ended at a 7. That's progress, even though it may not seem like much. We also learned that she can have this done about every 6 to 8 weeks if need be. As soon as she shakes off the meds, I can try and get some things done....... This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please…

Third times a charm

Today is Lizze's 3rd and final infusion. I'm really hoping that this does the trick and kills her migraine.  If it doesn't, we are going to look into a four day. Elliott stayed home from school today.  He wasn't feeling well when he went to bed and that continued through this morning.  He's basically been laying down all morning. Please keeping praying that this works and Lizze will finally find relief.

A couple of things

I wanted to let ya'll know that I'm going to be pretty hit and miss for the next day or so.  Lizze has her final infusion in the morning and I'll have the boys to look after while she's recovering from this procedure. I also have a video review of the new tablet I have to giveaway as well as a few posts that I'm slowly working on.  I'm gonna share a few of my favorite posts so that my new readers have a chance to check them out during the down time.  Also, LiveFyre seems to have gotten everything worked out.

Headache Infusion: Day 2 Wrapup

Lizze has completed her 2nd successful day of infusions.  One of the meds they gave her causes her whole body pain.  It's a side effect of that medication but it's very short lived and the benefits far outweigh the drawbacks. Lizze was able to walk out to the van but she's very heavily medicated and otherwise really out of it. She came home and was able to stay awake just long enough for me to make a few very important phone calls. As soon as I was done, she was in bed and asleep. I wasn't able to get any detailed information out of her about how she was feeling, largely due to being so heavily medicated. The other part is because this process is physically exhausting. I was able…

The wonders of #autism a tablet and Netflix

Emmett and I are waiting for Lizze to finish up day 2 of her headache infusion. He's just hanging physically in his carseat, watching Netflix on a tablet.  He has said so much as a word since his Leap Frog movie started, aside from him giggling. I'd say that's a win for sure.  This site is managed via WordPress for Android, courtesy of the @SamsungMobileUS Galaxy Note 2 by @Tmobile. Please forgive any typos.
