We have never been so sick since we moved up here!!! Probably from all the new bugs around here. Since we got here, we have had 6 bouts with the stomach bug, unknown cold - which turn into sinus infections, Kaylee has had at least 1 ear infection a month (WITH tubes), Daryl gallbladder problems and surgery, and the latest is his back (bulging disk). Ugh. So many weeks full of sick kids. Not fun.
Riley is not sleeping well so that in turn wears her out. So then she ends up getting sick on Friday night and is sick all weekend. I am praying to how to help her! Before she goes to sleep, we talk about the blessings in our lives. We have memorized the 23rd Psalm and then I have talked about the meaning of the verses and why it is so special. We have a list of my favorite Bible verses that deal with comforting and peace so she can read and memorize them. We don't read scary books or watch anything remotely scary. I do not know what is bothering her!! I talked to the school counselor and she will be in a life skills counseling session next year. I LOVE her school!! They really work with you!! And I love her teacher!! The counselor said it might be such a shock to her that she came from such a small Christian school where the parents HAD to be involved and kids were to act a certain way and now she is in a LARGE public school where there is almost no parental involvment and kids come from all types of families. Keep praying on that one!!
Kaylee is seeing an immunologist to see why she is getting sick so much. It has been continual!!! We are trying a few things and are also to get a complete bloodwork test done on her - but haven't done it yet.
Overall, Bodie's asthma is much better here!! His body likes the dry air and we can tell by his breathing when it gets more humid outside.
Our pediatrician knows us VERY well. The office staff love us. The pharamcy tech doesn't even ask our names when we come in and she hands us lollipops when we leave. On a monthly basis we see - along with our regular ped. - a GI specialist, pulmonologist, ENT dr, and now an immunologist!! Thank goodness we have insurance!!!
