For the past two weeks, Grant has been complaining of abdominal pain on and off, some of it bad enough to go to the E.R., which I have just told him GO, GO, GO! Don’t wait for a doctor’s appointment, then weeks to see a specialist with the pain you are having! He does have [...]
Well I am cautiously optimistic that I may have finally found a good physical therapist! As opposed to that other loser last month! He spent over an hour examining me, finding the various points where I say OW! Should I be flattered that he said he has never seen a patient with my complaints before? [...]
Kids say the darndest things! Here’s some of the things mine comes up with!
On the differences between men and women:
Tyler was watching Grant “pee” standing up.
Tyler: Daddy, is that your penis?!
Grant: Yes.
Tyler: It’s big!
Grant: Go tell Mommy that.
Another day.
Tyler: Mommy, do you have a big vagina?
Mama Sick: Uh, no.

We took Tyler to the pediatrician for his ears today and the doctor said they looked great. No infection, no water or fluid, totally fine. She said that sometimes normal things to us can sound very strange to children, such as an occasional ringing of the ears. Tyler is already focused on his ears from [...]
I was going to blog tonight, if I was able, about how I was doing and how we fared through the weekend, but unfortunately my mind and body have had to turn to Tyler.
I think it was Thursday night when we were eating and I saw Tyler touch his ear. I asked him if his [...]
I am still recovering from injuring myself in the pool (See First Pool Day). I start feeling better but helping Tyler get dressed usually makes me take a few steps back in healing.
