Yawwn. I'm tired. I've gotten a lot done today though, so I suppose it's warrented. Cleaned the kitchen & dining room & my room up, played with the kids. All's not peaches & cream though, unfortunately. Gabby seems to be having breathing trouble, a bit more rapid then usual with retractions. Thinking about taking her to the ER about it if it doesn't slow down here relatively soon. Since I can't drive right now, I called my Mom & talked to her about it and she said just give her the word. Talked to the boyfriend a bit later and he said the same thing. Mom can get here quicker, which I told him, and he said, well, ok - but make sure and let him know that we're going to the hospital and he'd meet us there. What a doll.
Jude & Gabby are sitting on the floor next to me playing with a tennis ball together. So cute. Some day s Gabby prefers to play with Jude, and other she prefers Alex - she's kinda worn down totday though, and Jude's a lot less rambunctious then Alex - and not having Gabby to play with, settles Alex down. It's a win-win for everyone. haha. Especially me..
Ugh, I'm so worried about Gabby. Seems like just as soon as one thing goes wrong with her, thirty others do, too. We're heading to KC at the beginning of August to see her urologist and schedule her kidney surgery. At her last cardiology check up she was called "temporarily stable", meaning the unresolved defects (Abnormal mitral valve, abnormal aortic valve, ASD, VSD) are still present but weren't causing trouble, and they mentioned that the coarctation that had caused her first surgery might be worsening again. Ugh. That's what really scares me, is that this could be her heart. The heart and lungs effect each other soo much, and....God, the poor doll's been through too much already. I just want her to be safe. I don't think that's too much to ask. Besides, I'm already freaking out about what to do with the boys when she has her kidney surgery, and we don't even have a date set yet! Unfortunatley, their "dad" can't be trusted to take care of them properly, and my Mom's always too busy, and...ugh, you get the picture. It's just me. JUST me.
If all turns out well, I have got to talk to my Mother about taking the Three for an evening so I can get some time to myself. I haven't had an evening to myself since November. Six months. I think I've earned it. Hah, yeah. I've more then earned it. Getting it though, could be quite another matter.
Anyways...going to get going.....The longer time goes, the more I think I'll wind up at the hospital with Gabby today. Need to get stuff ready just in case. |
