Oh. My. Gosh. I FORGOT what it felt like to feel "normal" and healthy! Holy cow, today I felt like a whole new woman. I had energy, I felt no pain anywhere, I could eat whatever I wanted, I went out to pizza with the family and we went to the outlet mall to do some long awaited back to school shopping for Isaac and Emma. Every day I have felt so guilty sending Isaac to school in jeans with holes and Emma to preschool in dresses she had outgrown. But finally I had the time, energy and health to at least get them a few things. :)
And, there's no school tomorrow, so we're gonna find a park and completely KAMPTOWNE* it. I can hardly wait! I have missed my kids and my life.
Today I actually wrote an email to Isaac's teacher to ask her a favor. I asked her to call me if ever a lot of kids came to school w/ sniffles or coughs, or other sicknesses. I said I'd come get Isaac and take him home. This was my doctor's idea, and I liked it. Anything to keep the sickies away! And fun for me and Isaac. ;) I don't want to turn in to "that parent" that annoys the teacher, but hopefully she gets it.
*To completely take over or dominate. Sometimes it can mean to flip something over and set it on fire.

Oh man! Laurie, I had no idea! I'm so sorry. I just decided to browse FB a little this morning and came across a post about your battle and then this link to your blog. What can I say that doesn't sound stupid?? I've no idea, but you and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers!! Love you!
That's a really good idea and if you let her know a little background about it I am sure she will understand and go the extra mile for you. So glad to hear that you are feeling better!!
So glad to hear that you are feeling better!! I am sure that if you talk to the teacher a little about what is going on she will go that extra mile and give you a call.
