I know it has been quite a while since I have posted. Believe me the reason is not because nothing is happening!!!
Garrett had his All Conference Honor Band concert. I did have intentions of posting a clip but have not had the time or energy to do so. I might get it done before next year....Both Garrett and Kaleb have joined the basketball team at the local christian school. So starting next month we will have basketball twice a week with games one night a week and wrestling twice a week with matches on Saturdays. Can you say no free time?
Steven is doing better. He has therapy twice a week in Tomah and is still driving to Elroy to work. His doctor and therapist said he is ahead of schedule. He sometimes pushes his limits but when do we all not do that? Otherwise I am impressed on how well he is obeying (at leaset in front of me).
As for me...The last month they switched my meds 3 times, I have put on almost 40 lbs from the various meds. The migraines still occur if I accidentally have any of my trigger foods, which seem to be growing. Now I have a constant tremor. It started like I felt like I was shaking from the cold all of the time but it was not visual and now it is and is affecting both hands, my left leg and my head. So if I turn a corner too fast I tip over. My Neuro now says it is not related to the migraines and has removed me from all the meds. My thoughts seem to get jumbled and my speech either stutters or the words don't come out right. I have had so many tests and have seen 10 doctors since July for various things. I have problems typing since sometimes my fingers jerk or do not work. I am so thankful for the spell check but I hate seeing all the little red lines! They cannot find anything definite so they are just saying benign essential tremors. They wanted to put me on a med for the tremors but it would just mask them so I would not know if they are getting worse or what is causing them. Plus the med would cause kidney stones in those prone too (oh, and the catscan showed mine to be 8mm instead of the 6mm the ultra sound thought it to be). I did pick up another web-site which I am thankful for. It helps keep me productive and creative plus it brings in some exra income since stamping is not very fun right now. With the shakes it is hard to get a good image. Off to work! I have a class on Thursday and haven't even started the prep work....
