Well, we finally got the "call" from the Dr.'s office for an open appointment for Little One, 5pm today, Friday. We went, with Grandma watching Braeden and Olivia. We got in at 4:50 and the tech took his weight and temp and found out "what happened." I told her my thoughts on it being a seizure. We then waited 45 minutes! for the Dr to come in. All he did was listen to him and ask if there had been any problems. I told him no, that other than the time he was "out," he had been fine. The Dr said that all we could do is to watch him. I said, even if it was a seizure??? He said, yes, we just watch and see if anything else happens. What??? I couldn't believe it, that was all he had to say. He wants to see him back in 3 weeks, three days after we get back from FL. For what? So I can take three little ones to stay there for an hour for him to tell me nothing again? If there is a "problem" I could call, obviously nothing else will be done. SO FRUSTRATED!

Well, maybe you can suggest they do an EEG to make sure the activity is normal....was it a neurologist by chance? A pediatric specialist? How did it go? Did you have the visit?

Good luck!

What you should know about HIV

-HIV can NOT be spread through casual/household contact. HIV is not spread through hugging, kissing, shaking hands, sharing toys, sneezing, coughing, sharing food, sharing drinks, bathing, swimming or any other casual way. It has been proven that HIV and AIDS can only be spread through sexual contact, birth, breastfeeding and blood to blood contact (such as sharing needles). - HIV is now considered a chronic but manageable disease. With treatment, people who are HIV+ can live indefinitely without developing AIDS and can live long and full lives. - People who are HIV+ deserve to be treated with love, respect, support and acceptance as all people do. Additional information on transmission of HIV can be found on the Center for Disease Control website: http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/resources

Little Did I Know

Little did I know that the road would be so rocky
Little did I know that the trip would take so long
Little did I know that my heart could hurt so much
Little did I know that God is never wrong

Little did I know that love could be so powerful
Little did I know that a dream so far could go
Little did I know that God would place the right ones
Little did I know that my heart, so large, could grow

Little did I know that a dream has it’s own timing
Little did I know that this day would finally come
Little did I know that four souls would be sent to guide me
Little did I know that they would choose to call me mom

But God knew all along and He had a plan to follow
God knew all along that my dream would soon come true
God knew all along that we five should be together
God knew all along that I’d share it all with you
