It's been one of those days. We had snow this week. We had almost as much snow as we had all last year in the beginning of this week. Don't get me wrong it's beautiful and I'm sure the water table could use it but ugh!
So this week we found out that neither Hannah or Lucas's snow boots fit, the water proof gloves have disappeared, and only one of them has snow
pants. Neither one one will come in until everything is soak and frozen
... and arthritic joints don't respond to well to that. I keep having to say
'you can go outside but,you can't come in and cry later if you overdo it'.
Mike's mass seems to be a complication of his surgery. Where a lymph node was remove it seems he has accumulated some lymphocytes which have become infected. So he is to have six weeks of antibiotics and if that doesn't clear it up it will have to be drained.
I am pretty exhausted. Lucas has started not sleeping again since all this with Mike. So a couple times a night he is awake... not good for him or me. Makes for a hard school day also. The one thing that was nice about the
snow days per say is that I got to do school with the younger ones like normal... nowhere to run just a cozy day at home with school. Well Monday was a rough day but that is a whole different story.
The older Lucas gets the more his Dysgraphia is an issue. Disgraphia is
a learning disability that affects writing, which requires a complex set of motor and information processing skills. It can lead to problems with spelling, poor handwriting and putting thoughts on paper. We thought an adaptive technology piece would level the playing field for him, but so far speech to text has been more trouble then helpful. He is so bright we just
need to find a way for him to be able to express himself in writing.
To those of you uplifting us in prayer~ I just want to say thank-you so
much! We can feel them! And we continuously need them.
