Tough Tough Week

Emily’s had a very tough week.  She’s been struggling with the cold that I had.  When Grace had it she was sick for about 2 weeks.  This was Emily’s first week with it.  Thursday night was awful.  I spent the night in Emily’s room till she finally settled, which was in the early morning.  She was acting like she was in a lot of pain, as well as having trouble breathing.  It is difficult to watch her try to deal with pain.  That is what I hate the most about her disabilities.

Yesterday we started her on steroids for her breathing problems.  She was a little more relaxed during the day (probably due to the pain meds that I gave her the night before…. just kicking in?).  Today she is much more relaxed but started the morning out with a seizure.  She had a seizure last night also.  At least she is not in pain.

Grace and I went out to the pasture to fly a kite on Wednesday afternoon.  What fun!  Sorry, no pictures this time.  I didn’t take my camera out there with me.  The wind was whipping up so much we didn’t have to do anything to get the kite in the air.  It was cool out but the sun was trying to shine.  Hasn’t been sunny here in a week or more.  It was nice to be out in the sun.  I see my neighbor’s tulips are blooming. (pictures of that later)

Did I tell you its sunny outside today?  Yippee.  Frost on the ground though.  Wonder what is still alive in my garden.  The plants are so small yet.  I thought I saw a mole hill in the garden.  I haven’t been out to inspect it yet.

There is a Daffodil parade going on today.  Maybe we can get down there to watch it.  Maybe, its 37 outside….. 

Thanks for listening ~
