I’m so scared

I'm getting ready to leave for the most difficult meeting of my life. I feel sick to my stomach, I haven't eaten anything and I only slept for about a half hour last night. You can read what this is all about in the below link. "I'm no longer a child" It's hard to imagine how one person can have such an impact on my life that even 30 years later, the sight of them instantly brings back feelings of being powerless, terrified and ashamed. https://www.theautismdad.com/2018/11/12/im-no-longer-a-child/ I had to take something to keep me from vomiting. This is not going to be easy but it's the right thing to do and the only thing I can live with.

Moment of truth

A bit later on this afternoon, State Farm will be back out to reevaluate the damage to our house from the storm a couple months back. This has been a long, drawn out process but we finally got the tree removed and they can finally, fully assess the damage to the house. It's really cold outside but I'm hoping they still come out.

Here’s what happened today

It's been a really, really long day but I think I'm finally done. Here's a couple notable things about our trip. Emmett's appointment went fine. Akron Children's Hospital never disappoints. We truly are lucky to live in proximity. The exam itself only took a few minutes and his old prescription wasn't that far off. He only needed a few minor adjustments and he'll be good to go. I suspect that Emmett may be very sensitive in regards to his vision. I don't know if it's a sensory thing or not but that would make sense. Anyway, we stopped at Walmart to both pick out and order his glasses. Insurance covers only $18 and we are not allowed to make up the difference. This means he will have a very cheap…

Emmett and I made it to the always amazing @AkronChildrens hospital for his eye appointment

Emmett and I battled horrendous traffic, while drinking dangerously hot - hot chocolate, in order to get to Akron Children's Hospital for his desperately needed eye appointment. Actually, traffic wasn't too bad today but the hot chocolate was seriously hot and Emmett does need new glasses in a very bad way. ☺ Anyway, we got here safely and it's now a waiting game. They're super busy and I just want to get this done. I'm so grateful we were able to get in sooner than next month. As soon as we get done, we'll stop and order his new glasses.
