It appears that the pain is related to neuropathy and fibro. That's all I've heard. Trying to get 3 kids in bed at the same time and I just want to scream. Posted via midNIGHT powered Epic 4G by lost and tired

Lizze is off to the emergancy room. Her mom is coming to get her. She has developed unwed symptoms that concern me. She has a "new" type of pain and it's isolated to the left side of her body. The concern for me is the pain in her shoulder that radiates done her left arm. That is a classic sign of cardiac problems. When talking to her about it she has NEVER felt pain this intense. That also concerns me. As much as I want to go with her the kids need me here. She's in good hands with her mom. This is probably fibrous related but this is new for her and could be the sign of something very serious. Please say a prayer.... Posted via midNIGHT powered Epic…

I had everything figured out. I was going to have the house ready and the laundry done prior to Lizze having surgery. Then the storm hit and the kids were home all week long. Nothing seemed to get done. Now I have to add grocery shopping to the list of things to do while I'm sick. We haven't been able to see the nutritionist about Emmett yet so I'll be flying blind at the store again today. Something has been sneeking into his diet cause he has been sick the past few days. So we need to be much more careful. Here is everything I need to get done: Clean the house Replace our badly broken couch Catch up on laundry Clean the kitchen Grocery shopping Figure out the final…

I have no patience especially with Gavin. He won't pull himself away from what he is doing to go to the bathroom. He waits until the WORST time possible to decide he needs to go. It's just a choice he makes. I don't think there is anything really behind it. Just drives me crazy. I'm really starting to get nervous about this week. I just hope I'm strong enough to pull this off and survive. Posted via midNIGHT powered Epic 4G by lost and tired

As we get closer to to next Wednesday I am starting to feel the pressure building up. This is not going to be easy to get through. I'm worried about a number for things. I'm worried about the procedure itself and everything going well. I'm worried about the recovery period and risk of blood clotts. I'm worried about the impact this will have on her fibromyalgia. I'm worried about how I'm going to cover the cost with things already so tight. I worry about the impact this will have on our VERY FRAGILE "balance". I may act like I'm ok with this but the truth is I'm really scared. I'm afraid of something going wrong or that she will be worse off after all is said and done. I want…

Akron Children's just called and they want a sleep study done on Emmett. This may help determine what's happening at night. I have to call and schedule this for as soon as possible. With Lizze's surgery that is going to make this really tough to accomplish. It may have to wait a few weeks. It just won't be easily done until Lizze is back on her feet. We also got another call from Akron and we got back into the "Triple P Parenting" program. We will actually be working directly with the Doctor who created the program. Next week is going to be impossibly busy. Posted Via WordPress Android. Powered by Epic 4G & MIDNIGHT ROM

we are on snow day #3 and I am ready to just fall over and all it quits. The reality is that snow days happen but for families like mine they have amuch bigger impact. I love having the kids home but enough is enough already. The kids are at eachothers throats and Lizze and I got no sleep again because of whatever is going on with Emmett. We have 6 days to be ready for surgery and the following weeks. There are things I simply need to have done in order to be to be able to do this on my own. Laundry needs caught up as well as the kitchen. I need to make sure the house is in decent shape so I can focus on other things.…
