and now 4 doctors later . . .

Well, I took Evey to another doctor, that now makes number 4 with this skin issue. This is the first time that she had a skin byopsy done. To say the least she didn't like it but I know it needed to be done. We should get the results in about a week or so. This doctor thinks that she is having an allergic reaction to maybe gluten. Again something that will change my/our world, but from what I've heard it will be for the better.

Aj had a really bad asthma attack that sent us to the ER Sunday night. We had to break down and get a nebulizer for at home, which we've had to use 2 times now.

Evey is on spring break from school and so far it has been filled up with doctors appointments and ER visits . . . good times . . . NOT!! I am hoping to do at least one of the things that I've planned for but only time will tell and it mainly depends on how Aj is doing with his asthma and what the doctor says when we see him tomorrow for a follow up for Aj.

Well happy spring,
me

new issuses meets old ones

Hello I must confess this morning I am feeling rather over whelmed already. Over the weekend Aj's asthma flared up and we spend Sunday night in the ER for a breathing treatment. Last night was a good night, things are calming down for him and his energy is picking up. Now Evey is not doing well with her skin. Gut feeling is that her scabies are back, but we are going to get her tested so we know for sure. So that means I'm going to turn into a clean freak again. Also with all of this on my plate I found out that my vitamine E levels were low which can cause frumpyness and angziaty attact, oh great!! Last night I am seriously thinking of stepping out of selling Avon and just focus on my family and me. Will I ever sell again, Lord only knows. I did/do enjoy it and so maybe. Well that is all for now and my soap opera and stress. Well got to go and do laundry, clean house, change bed sheets, and vacumm EVERYTHING!!

Things

Lots to share with you. Evey had another check up earlier this week and we don't have to go back unless things take a turn for the worse. HIP HIP HURRAY!! We are trying a new bathe soap and body cream/lotion and hopefully these will help her get cleared up and stay that way. Today I had a doctors appointment to talk about some stuff. The doctor wanted to do some blood work just to make sure that things are working the way they are supposed to. We, meaning Aj and myself get down to the lab for the tests. I sit down and get myself ready for the nurse. Aj looks at me and asked me if I am going to get a shot so they can take the blood out, I said yes I am. He says he can't look while he covers his ears and turns around. I then said that I thought you were going to hold my hand for me. He proceeds to stretch out one of his arms, still turned around so his back is toward me. He then covers that ear with his shoulder so that his ears are plug, I guess he thought that I was going to scream or something while they take the blood. The nurse and I could not stop laughing at this sight and all that Aj did. Talking about a comic relief. After that we took a drive and saw that a new dollar store opened up, so we decided to take a look. While we were in the store we saw, looking out the glass doors an elderly lady on the ground. We just missed her going down but as we looked up we/I saw her legs flying up in the air while the rest of her is still on the ground. I had Aj stand off to the side while I helped the sales clerk and some other good folks help her back to her feet and back into the store to sit down till the ambulance shows up. Nice lady. On our way home I thanked God for my youth that I was able to help that lady out and grateful that she had someone to come and get her after the paramedic guys checked her out. I also said a prayer that she is alright. She hit her head on the cement and was bleeding a bit. I just hope she is alright.

Funny I thought that if you do a good deed for someone like that you are to feel good about yourself that you did an act of kindness like that. But for whatever reason why I don't, I am more concerned that she is alright, and that the fall and bump on the head was not bad. She didn't go to the hospital but went home with someone else, not sure if it was a family member or a friend . . . but other wise she is home safe with someone watching her.

Oh well its just about time to pick up lil princess from school. So I will bid you good day and be safe.

Eveys improvements

Hello, I just got done with giving the kids a bath and giving them their bed time meds and brushing teeth. While I was putting on the anti itch cream on Evey for the itch that is still buggin her I noticed that I can stop putting it on certain parts of her body. Her healing body has been a long and slow going road but I/we are seeing the light at the end of the tunnle coming brighter and brighter. Praise God!! Thank you to all of you for your prayers during this time.

on Valentine's Day with her hair ribbon/bow
that our neighbor made for her. I love you Evey and I'm
so very glad that things are getting better for you!!

Evey had another dermatology appointment this week and things are still clearing up but on the slow side. We have said good-bye or should I say see ya later to one of Jim's Uncles. It was a blessing but darn emotions you just don't want to let go even though you know its for the better. Just when I think that things are getting back to normal something happens. My sis in law was admitted into the hospital this morning for something is buggin her. I'll find out more later when I go up to sit with her for a bit. Anyway, life is good and I can't complain. Oh PS I have a wonderful hubbie!! Love ya Jim.
This is and most likely my forever fav pic of my darling love. This was taken on our wedding day in the limo from the church to the reception hall . . . I just LOVE his smile here!!
