my middle child Zoe turned 4 yesterday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY baby girl. We had an impromptu birthday on Sunday afternoon. I finally was feeling better after taken off all the meds and almost every thing is finally healed ........I still have two open areas which are stubborn but they are making progress now too. A change of compression garments has now helped that. So back to the subject.............we invited just the neighbors and had cake, pink lemonade (her new favorite) locarb drink.......and played games outside as it was 75 degree weather. Beautiful and the mess was minimal. They played Red Rover, soccer, freeze tag, hide and seek and with bubbles. The kids had a blast and here are some of the pics. We call her our Princess Sunshine so it was only appropriate that her cake represented the Princess she is.
I was EXHAUSTED after but to see the smiles on her face was well worth it. She did have an episode of "OCD" during the middle of it so we deviated for a few minutes to allow her to get past it and not TOTALLY melt down. Hoping on March 3rd, the doc will switch meds to help with this although in a chat group I am with this appears to be the norm. GOD HELP ME. A PMSing pre-teen, a stubborn ill 4 year old and a stubborn potty training 2 year old and a hubby who has a thin patience level with all this (at times) depends on the stress level at home and how much sleep he was able to get.....which only leads to more chaos. I think I could loss my mind at times......this might not be so bad if I were totally healthy so I am praying for that. I did get my B12 shot again today and on Tuesday I will go in for another Transfusion. I know that will help SO much..........hanging in there until then. Major prayers are asked for as I have not been sleeping well they put me back on a sleeping pill but hope that it is a symptom of the low iron and they can wean me off of it after the transfusion . Even with it though I have only averaged 4 hours a night at best. Love to all.
