I think a lot of you already know, but Avery was put in the hospital over the weekend. I called his GI doctor on Friday because Avery was constipated and hadn’t had a bowel movement in about a week. I had already given him an enema and some prune juice with no luck. The GI [...]
I’m still looking for an aide for Avery if anyone is interested or knows someone that might be interested. You won’t have to do much. I just need an extra set of hands to help at the doctor and maybe stay here with Avery occasionally so I can run errands. I’m getting ready to start [...]
We’ve had a busy last few weeks. Avery went to see an endocrinologist at the end of August. He’s a lot smaller than most kids his age so the doctor wanted to test him for growth hormone deficiencies. She said even though he’s small for his age he’s still growing so he probably doesn’t have [...]
Happy Monday! With Avery’s medicaid we get an aide to help me during the day but the company we are signed up with doesn’t have anyone available right now to come out. They said we can use our own aide if we have someone in mind so now I’m on a mission to find someone. [...]
Well it’s been forever since my last post. So much has been going on the last two months. Avery’s been pretty good for the most part but he was just recently in the hospital. I took the kids to Iowa at the beginning of July to visit Jeremy’s parents. The plan was to stay for [...]
Well we got our bathroom done! A friend of mine actually read my last blog and e-mailed me. Turns out her husband owns his own handy man company. He does almost everything under the sun so if you need some work done call Shane Towery at 936-524-0543. He does great work!! Avery’s an official pre-k’er now : ) We had our last meeting with the school [...]
Jeremy and I need to have some work done in our bathroom. We’re hoping to find someone we know or who is a friend of a friend. We can’t really chance having someone do crappy work or take our money and do no work at all. So if you know anyone you could recommend we [...]
I received an e-mail today from the president of our CFC support group. There has been a petition started to ask congress to allow a tax break for the many expenses parents with special needs children are forced to pay. We pay over $400 a month for family medical coverage through Jeremy’s employer and yet [...]
Hey everyone! I know it’s been forever since I’ve blogged but there really hasn’t been much going on lately. Avery has seen his dietician since the last blog and I’m happy to report that he’s gained 2 lbs since eating more solids. Now I know it’s only 2 lbs but that’s huge for Avery. We’re [...]
We recently changed our site host from Yahoo to Dreamhost and when we did that we lost a lot of stuff. Unfortunately one of the things we lost was the blog. As far as we know all parts of the new site are up and running but if you find a hiccup somewhere please let [...]
