The meds are kicking in for Coleman and the drips make him tired. He has slept a good long nap the last two mornings during the AM "line" as he calls it. After his line was done, I could hear everyone in the main rooms packing up, but I decided to let Coleman sleep because he was so tired. I just kept working for a while and then went in the hall only to find the whole side of the building dark with us locked in. We snuck through the back office and found our way out. Coleman was glad he got to take a nap. He likes coming straight home and finding new games on the Xbox live. We watched a movie today, with no sound and it didn't have closed captioning. Odd, you really don't need either of them to get the plot and he's making me a decent lip reader.
We're getting ready to head back to the clinic and my friend Lisa called yesterday to say some future new friends of ours wanted to go together and get Coleman a comfortable chair to have at the clinic - lots of people bring one in since they are in them several hours a day. We're headed back in an hour and he's excited to have a new chair. Thanks to Teresa and friends for giving Coleman a soft place to land each and every day!
Each day I get one more task checked off the list and I'm learning that One-A-Day is enough. I' m looking forward to next week and some more results.
Enjoy your One a Day whatever it is.
P.S. The second brain scan was the charm - Lisa doesn't like driving in the city so I could handle that and I don't like hospitals but she's a nurse, so she could handle that. Together we got it done!
Mel and family,
ReplyDeletePlease pass on our love to Coleman! We miss you all and are happy that you have found some hope in KC! With the trauma that Coleman has had to endure, have any of the doctors suspected PTSD? His experiences would be unbearable for even the most trained and hardend U.S. soldier! He is such a sweet boy and he is surely missed at Stony Point! I pray for God to continue to reveal Himself to you all and to bring you peace each day. I know how much joy you must feel when you have good days! Our prayers continue to be with you all.
Much Love to you All!
Angie Vardell and family
