August 18 !!! Spinal day

August 18th, 2008

This morning we are up & fed & already have our IV in for getting out fluids for our spinal !  Today it took 3 tries to find a good vein so he isnt real happy, but he got over it pretty quick.  He is playing with toys & awaiting his fluid bag ..his spinal is scheduled for 3:30 but that can change if the stems arrive early !!!!

I think I should take some time this morning to clean our room as we have things scattered around a bit !!!  Since I havent done any major shopping here I dont have to much to pack when the time comes.  I do not know if i will make it back to any stores before we leave !!!   everyone is so great in helping here & always ask if i need anything when they make trips out, so they usually bring milk back for Tyler which he can goe through fairly quick !  everything is sold here in quarts, everything here is small..from food to clothes !!!

It is overcast again here today but no rain yet, but since were room bound that is ok !!!  I have gotten news that a hurricaine is expected to hit the keys in a few days so try and keep track of that …i know we can use the rain but we dont need the high winds and damage there.  I am in depserte need of a diet coke !!! they are so hard to find here, and yesterday i gave in & drank a regular one & the taste was horrible…ive gotten so use to diet coke !!!  cant wait to get home to have one with lots of ice..that is another thing you dont get here is ice !!!  Macie our neighbor seems to be so much better & they have flights to go home on the 19th !!1 they are so excited & i dont blame them !!!  I will post an update after tylers spinal as to how it all went !!  we are anxious to get home and see what kinds of changes come in the following months…most kids see some changes between 3-6 !!!  so we hope by Christmas that there are great changes for tyler !!!
