Just An Update

Well, last Wednesday was my last day at Kids at Heart. Yeah, I cried, but I blame Sally. She was the gal I worked with and I am a huge fan of hers. She's a riot and I will certainly miss seeing her on a daily basis (as well as the kids). A couple of the moms cried too, so that didn't help.

My new baby cousin is here and Elliott is precious (then again, she's my family... so how on Earth could she NOT be?) She's being a real trooper too, so we're really excited that she's been doing pretty well. We've been to see B and Cassi and Elli a few times. You wouldn't believe how strong my cousins are being. I am just so impressed and proud of how tough they are being. They are a true testament of strength.

As far as my appointment with the neurologist was today... he was a little concerned about the recent seizure and it will be another six months before I can drive since my last one. He also wants me to start taking folic acid, as I guess since I'm "pregnancy age" (and just so you know, there are no baby plans right now) and my anti-seizure meds can reduce that in my system... he just wants to be careful. In addition to that, he wants me to take a 24 hour EEG, since my regular 30 minute one didn't show anything. He said that some patients don't show anything on regular EEGs, so he wants me to take a 24 hour one to get more accurate results. Fun fun.

I also learned from my daddy today that our buddy, Bud Luckert, passed away at his home. The world has one less geniunely good human being and it's a shame. He was an honorable, sincerely wonderful person. If everyone can please say a prayer for his wife, Madaline, I would greatly appreciate it. I'd also love it if everyone can say an extra prayer for B, Cassi and Elli (as she will be having her surgery on Thursday - and they may need just a little extra strength).

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!
