End of THAT chapter!

Ahhhhh.....I am finally done with the semester! Sad to say, I just scrapped by. I didn't give it my all. I let life kick me. The beginning was full of worry with what was going on with my girl (seizures and tests to figure out why she had the seizures). I don't think I blogged about it....although most everyone close to me knows what happened.

Quick run down....

July 21....her birthday party day....she "woke up" unresponsive but breathing. Paramedics arrived and couldn't wake her up. She was sent to the local hospital where she sort of woke up but was clearly out of it. So they transferred us via ambulance to children's hospital, that is about 40 minutes away. While in route she has another 'episode'.....talk about a bumpy ride! Get to children's and she finally woke up completely and was ready to go home and party. We ended up staying the night. July 22....her actual birthday...she was so sad to be there and we nearly had to stay another night so they could continue watch her. But the nice doctor let us leave and she had a quick party with her best friend and cousins.

When she had her EEG they found abnormal brain activity....but her MRI was normal. The worry and testing and more worrying continued through the first four months of the semester.  You can't help but to think about all of the what-if's while waiting weeks to hear back about the results.  I think it was more scary to wait for the results than it was to see her in the state she was in during both episodes she had.

So that was 4 out of 5 of the months of my lovely fall semester. Now let us add in my random thoughts and my bouts of "woe it's me". I possibly ruined my chances of being accepted to my number one University that I want to transfer to. BOO ME! But I must pull up my big girl panties, and just remember, I have, not only myself, but my mini-me to pull through for. I have to work hard for her. I have to work hard for all of the people I want to help.  I can't change my situation (well, I could, but my life would really go into a downward spiral then) and I need to accept that.  Right now I am going to reboot, and get ready to push forward next semester.

In the mean time, I want to spend much time with my girl! So, today we made snowmen....she had fun, and made a mess! And since I will have nothing but time on my hands for the next two weeks, I will blog more! ;)


My snowman is on the left, and very sloppy. It was stepped on and knocked over so many times. And my girl, the arteest she is, made the one the right with the two huge eyeballs on random cotton balls. Prettiful, huh?!

LOVE
