Stick a Fork in Me!

Ok seriously.....I am freaking done...stick a fork in me!

I have been sick and tired since September....just when I thought I was feeling better

I started to feel like I was sliding back....

I am getting more tired and dizzy again....I have moved my next Dr appointment from the 25th to tomorrow....I need to know what is happening....

My son has been diagnosed with ADHD.....they recommend and IEP...

that is an individualized education plan

through the special ed department at the school......

which because of his very high standardized test scores he does not qualify for...

SO.....we are back to square one with a kid

that hates school, is failing two classes, cries when he has homework, loses his homework when he does do it!  So how does this kid not qualify I ask you

Because he scores high on two tests....  ARRGH!

Then to top it all off I found out today that my dad has cancer and they

now need to see if it has spread....my dad

who was in ICU for 10 MONTHS after a small surgery that was

supposed to only be a 3 day thing....my dad

who lost so much weight that he looked anorexic....my dad who was in a rehab

for too many months to count....my dad who has to be on dialysis for the rest of his life 3 days a

week because his kidneys don't work anymore and he is too

old and too sick to qualify for a transplant....my question is....how much more can MY DAD

take? Worst part is I live out of state

and I can't be with him every minute....trying to set up a time

when we can go and visit him before I have

my own surgery and can't travel for who knows how long :(

Sorry this post is a downer.....but I am just so tired....and worn out with it all....wish I could

be like Sleeping Beauty and wake up and everything is joyful and happy!



Has it really been 6 months???!!!

OMG! 

 I had not realized it has been this long since I have posted until today!!!  I don't even know if anyone is still out there wondering where I am???

Well right after my last post I became extremely sick.  I was exhausted beyond belief, dizzy and sick to my

stomach all the time, and out of breath walking just a few feet.

I thought at first I might have walking pneumonia or maybe a heart issue. I honestly could

barely get out of bed in the morning, but with 3 kids I really didn't have a choice.

I finally went to the Dr in December because I had developed a sinus

infection and that was the last straw....she ran bloodwork when

I explained my other symptoms....and promptly called me that day

to tell me to get myself to the ER immediately that I might need a

transfusion!!! WHAT???  It seems I have an extreme form of anemia...off I went but they didn't give me a transfusion because I wasn't passing out...my levels were very low...after many tests and visits to my Ob/Gyn I am on the road to recovery......I am now on high doses of iron

and I will be having surgery to stem the cause of the iron loss once my

levels are normal and a transfuion isn't necessary.  I still have a long way to go before I am back

to normal but I feel 100 times better then I did in October!

Although I have been sick life has to go on and we have been very busy despite it all....

I have done what I can and gone to what I could but it was a struggle....

I am going to make a real effort to

start posting more with pictures and such......I hope some of you are still checking in once and a while and that you will be here to read now that I am getting

back on track.....tomorrow look for the first

of my daughters two birthday parties....she turned 4

on April 1st and we had a Spongebob sort of weekend!  Post on that tomorrow!

A hurt boy.....

So JP got hurt today at the soccer game, football for you in England :) 

Some kid totally kicked his legs our from under him on purpose

he fell to the ground and hurt his knee.

It is a bit swollen and he could not really walk on it.

Hoping that tomorrow he is feeling better to go to school

There is another game tomorrow but he will be sitting it out more then likely....he is devastated...he worked so hard to get on this team and to get injured after only the

third game....he will be heartbroken!

I am feeling a bit under the weather today....need more sleep and I just can't get it...

When I do lie down early something always gets me up and up

throughout the night.  The nights I have no disturbances....I got to bed after

midnight!  Go figure!

We have a family wedding on 10/10/10....Miss E is the flower girl

and I am VERY excited!  Hoping to get all the last things we need for this thing tomorrow.

Boys need shoes, I need a complete outfit, and we need to figure out how much money to give...

I love weddings and I love that I can dance with hubby and the boys!

Off to bed with the little girl...she is a bit stuffy too....we all need to get more sleep!

Night!

Can you believe 3 posts in one week!  Holy Smokes I am on a roll!!!  LOL
