MASS as in Many-A-Seasons-Since I have posted!!
Ok, I'll leave the humor for the professionals! Anyhoo, I just wanted to bring my blog friends up to speed on what all is going on with us.
My oldest, Racheal, whom was diagnosed with Syringomyelia and Chiari malformation had decompressions brain surgery on the second of this month. The surgery went very well, and she is recovery nicely. She has noticed many improvements and is better. However, she still has Chiari, and will have to deal with the symptoms on a daily basis.
For the past few days, she has been waking up with a terrible headache (not pressure like before, though), and has back and shoulder pain. She is better, but she just stil has symptoms to contend with.
Hannah that had the hip fracture from a trampoline accident, is continuing to have pain from that hip. She has been on and off of crutches since July. We are hoping to find a doctor that can answer our questions about why she is hurting.
Luke is showing some signs that he may have the Chiari like Rachael. We are debating on whether to hurry up a visit for him with Rachael's neurosurgeon in North Carolina, or whether to give it more time to see if he improves or worsens.
Abby is doing well. She is becoming more helpful and mature each day. She is so good to help me with Callie. That is until something more exciting comes along!
Lily is good, too. Thankfully, she has not had any more tonsil episodes so far. We are watching her and hoping that she won't have to have them taken out like Rachael did. But, if they do need to come out it would be easier while she is younger, rather than waiting til she is older.
Callie is pulling up and crawling so fast all over the house. She came back from North Carolina with such attitude and personality. The other kids were just amazed at how much she had changed in the three weeks that we were away.
Well, other than having some hair fall out, trying to keep my sanity, and never having time to do my nails, I am doing good. The Lord has been so good to me!!!
