  • Good Morning!  I know I disappeared again.  Sorry.  things got a little wild around here and I didn't have much time. 

    The 29th Kohl had a seizure so a lot of my time has been taken up with medical tests to figure out what was going on.  After an MRI and an EEG we had our answer.  There is a big medical name for it that I can't remember but to put it simply that when he was in the womb and forming his gray brain matter and white matter didn't separate like it should of so it makes for a disorganized brain.  They could see a small abnormality in the MRI.  If there is one there is probably more but they didn't see any.  what this means if that he will probably have another seizure.  It could be tomorrow, it could be in 3 months or it could be 3 years but he will probably have another one.  We are getting some Valium that is given rectally if the seizure lasts for more than 3 minutes.  That is mostly because of the distance that we are from the ER.  We have chosen to wait on medication because it was a small seizure and he so far hasn't had anymore.  But we know that we will probably sooner or later have to. 

    The stress of all of Kohl medical problems caused Kirby to get get ill and he ended up in the ER too three days after Kohl was.  It has been a mess around here.

    Then this morning  I got up and there was a shoe box on the table.  I knew it wasn't there last night because Kohl job is to clean off the table after supper and when he is done there is nothing left.    I left it there and figured sooner or later I would figure it out.  Kyra got up this morning and asked if I heard the excitement last night.  i told her I must have slept through it.  It seems that a nice cat left her a present of a mouse last night when she was asleep.  We don't know which one so she can't say thank you.  She said that she about screamed and that woke Pooh up.  Between the two of them the decided it was asleep.  Kyra wanted to wake me up but Pooh decided they better not because I wouldn't have been able to see it anyway.  I can't see a thing without my contacts!  Anyway Pooh decided the best thing to do was put it in an old shoe box and put it on the table.  I don't know what she would have done if I had opened it and screamed.  I told Kyra that I bet it was like an old Abbott and Costello show!  LOL  these kids are something let me tell you!

    We are going up to see my dad tomorrow.  I am not looking forward to it.  There is just nothing to do.  It is so hard because he just falls asleep and we sit there.  I know it truly isn't that bad but you know what I mean.

    Supper tonight is Lamb chops for Kirby and me, chicken wings for the girls and scrambled egss for the girls.  With that we will have Peppy pasta, fruit, green salad,  and brownies for dessert.

  • {Mae} I'm so sorry to hear abougt all you have gone through. I thought that was responsible of the girls to not wake you up. Thinking of you.

  • Poor Kohl!!!  Hope he doesn't have another siezure, how scary that would be!!!

    As for the present on the table: get that thing out of the house!!  They left a possibly sleeping MOUSE for you?  EEK!  I hate those things!!
