On Thursday, we will be heading to Akron Children's Hospital for Gavin. He will be going for another, more detailed eye exam. His last appointment was simply to get his new glasses. This particular appointment is going to try and identify why he's experiencing blackouts in his vision.  Gavin's been experiencing periods of time where his vision goes black and he can't see anything.  He rarely tells us in the moment, but rather later on in the day or even days later. We don't know if this seizure related or something else.  We're hoping to either identify or rule out something physically being wrong with his eyes. If everything checks out, we're probably going to need neurology again and have another EEG done. 

It's a new day and the final Tuesday of summer break. We're focusing on back to school preparations today. The first thing we have to do is fashion show, which is when we double check to make sure clothes fit. The boys hate doing this but it's a necessary evil.  I want to get this out of the way as soon as possible, because we have to likely get some things for Emmett.  Anxiety for the new school year is already setting in and while we're trying to ease into a new routine but it's always a rough change. 

My appointment has come and gone. It was a mixture of good news and news I was expecting.  First of all, my bloodwork was better and she's happy with it for the most part. There's room for improvement though and I'm okay with that. What's life without goals.. ☺  Next comes the bad-ish news I was expecting. My weight is a problem and so is my blood pressure. Taking care or my weight will likely have a very positive impact on my blood pressure.  I go back in February. If my weight and blood pressure haven't improved, I'll have to go on medication.  I'm not going to let that happen.  As always, my doctor was super cool about everything and wasn't judgemental at all. She's concerned and so am I.…
