A New Therapist
July 16th, 2009
We are so depressed today! We really miss Jasmine! She didn’t speak much English, but I think she can speak more than our new therapist, Jason. Jasmine really made Kyle work, but yet she was very gentle with him. Jason is not as gentle and he doesn’t want Kyle to cry or whine. When Kyle started to whine he said ok baby, and gave Kyle his cell phone to play with. Everyone who knows Kyle knows what happened next, Kyle whined and acted like a baby the whole time because he got sympathy from someone.
He did ok with his therapy, but he just didn’t do the same things with Jason that he did with Jasmine. I am going to talk to the translators and tell them what we were doing with Jasmine, and maybe he they can explain it to him. Jasmine is still around though, she did Kyle’s acupressure today, so we still get to see her.
Dr. Tony has switched tomorrow’s IV stem cell treatment to a spinal IV treatment. Ofcourse Kyle was not happy about this, but the doctor doesn’t want the last stem cell treatment to be spinal since Kyle had been having headaches. So he will have spinal tomorrow, spinal on 7-22, and an IV on 7-24.
We spent a lot of time downstairs today. I am almost finished with the book, “My Sister’s Keeper” and Kyle has played the Wii and the Nintendo DS. We feel more comfortable around the other familes now. They’re like our best friends because they are the only other people around who speak English.
Last but not least, we received Maw Maw Flo’s package today!!! Kyle was very excited. She sent him some chocolate pudding, peanut butter crackers, cheese and crackers, and a checkers game. He said Maw Maw knows what he likes! He is still waiting patiently on his cereal from Aunt Ann and Jessica. He is very excited about what Maw Maw Sandy will bring him from Aunt Jackie! We love and miss everyone and we’ll see you in 12 days!

Kyle, you better be loving on your Mama because it is her birthday and we cannot get her a present until she gets home. Tell her that Paw-Paw and Maw-Maw love her and we are getting excited about you’al coming home. I am so proud that you finally got your package and I hope that you’al will enjoy it. Please, keep being a Lil man for Mama and Meme, I know that you are going through a lot of tuff things that you are not use to doing, but the Doctors wants the best for you and so does all of us. I’m so sorry about Jasmine maybe you just need another woman nurse to work on you. Paw-paw likes women nurses’ working on him too!!!! I bet Paw-paw Bill does too!!! We are all still praying for all of you. Mary, please call me when you get home. We may need to go see Kathleen and see what she may have for us. You will have a better idea on what we are looking for. Love and Kisses and hope you are still improving and getting stronger everyday.
