Doctors, Doctors, and More Doctors!

February 19, 2009

Well, Cymbre and I are making the rounds of doctors. She saw the family doctor yesterday, and now he has her on oral steroids to help pump up how she reacts to antibiotics. In the morning, we see the allergist, and the ear, nose, and throat doctors. Hopefully, between the three of them we can get rid of her dizziness and get her back in school.

I must admit, it is sorta funny how she holds her arms out when she tries to walk around.

She is also having some pain in her neck, which the doctor says is a result of all the fluid in her ears. The pain is just right behind her ear and goes a bit down her neck.

I guess you could say, she is just falling apart. However, they gave her a blessing last night, and she is on several temple prayer rolls, and several teachers and friends are praying for her also. So keep up the prayers, and hopefully these doctors will get her back on her feet.

I managed to find hot pink pipe cleaners today!!! A big accomplishment. You don't know how hard they are to come by. I need them to make the headpiece for Cooper's Stand Out costume. It's how you make little loops and sew them to the underneath side and then make bobby pin x's thru the loops to hold the thing in place. Her vest just has one seam, and the velcro down the front, and then I just have to jazz it up with rhinestones and Christmas balls. The tutu is hanging on the hanger fluffing itself. We got the leotard in the mail, so now I just need to figure out how many rhinestones and order them.

And Caleb says Grammie lives to far away to babysit Jack while they move. He did say that I could fly over and babysit him though.....however, I don't think they could pay the babysitting bill if I did that. Just so everyone knows, even though I am not there, Grammie still has dibs and everyone who holds Jack has to give him hugs from Grammie and Grandpa and Aunt Cooper and Aunt Cymbre!

It's a nice day outside here, the sun is shining and there's even a little breeze. The humidity is low, and if the dumb tree pollen wasn't so HIGH, I could actually open up the few windows that open and get some fresh air in this place. However, since some of us are highly allergic to the tree pollens, we are living with stale house air.....at least that's been through the air cleaner in the attic!

Cymbre bought a tomato plant and two strawberry plants. Guess it's getting to be that time of year again. She did a great job with her flowers last year....still has some of the geraniums from Shyla's wedding alive out there. Also got some tree spikes for Dad to fertilize her "Popcorn" tree in the front yard. It is beginning to get some buds, so it needs a boost to bloom.

Dad cut back all the crepe myrtle trees, they also look to naked when he does that. They come back and grow and bloom really pretty though, so I guess he does it right.

I saw a quote on a church while I was driving today: He who angers you controls you! It's quite interesting if you stop and think about it.

Well, must get this foot up for a bit, and then I want to finish that vest, and get going on the hat.

Everyone have a great day, and don't forget to say your prayers for Cymbre!

Love you bunches!
