Ash flew in last Tuesday night. I am so excited to have him here! Every time I see him after an extended absence I cry. This time was no exception. My heart soars having my child so close!
As we stood at the baggage carousel he pointed at different pieces of luggage. “Mine is dusty like that one, small like that one, fat like that one…wow someone really has a shiny silver bag like the Jetsons?” We were having a good time.
I didn’t know Mac could play fetch in the pool until Wednesday. Swimming and grabbing the ball at the same time…this dogs talents are endless. J
Over the weekend Ash was an angel at P3. We went through as students years ago and it has made an impact on him as well as our family. It is an amazing way to work through emotional pain and get back on track allowing me to be more present for my family and a loving servant towards them and God.
Today we get David’s car out of the shop. He drove it two weeks ago without water and it warped the head. I was striking it up to his memory loss until I found out it is a male family trait. His father and brother have done the same thing. $2,600 later I guess I’ll be in charge of the cars from now on. That is an expensive lesson to learn and one we really can’t afford.
I have been going to the gym and eating better for the last week. I decided that I need to take better care of myself and that eating feelings is not making them better. I also need to be an example for David.
He went to a Nuropsycologist yesterday. He reiterated to David that he needs to make a list for daily activites, use a day planer, and take care of himself.
When we were to the Neurologist a few weeks ago she stated she wants him to eat better, loose the weight, and go to a new Brain Fitness club. For some reason unknown to me he is resisting the changes recommended by the specialist we have seen. It hurts my heart.
If his memory loss doesn’t slow the Neurologist is going to put him on an Alzheimer’s medication in August. Which is frustrating since he isn’t implementing what all of the Dr.’s have told him so we truly don’t know how far down the scale he has gone. It’s like he has given up.
All in all I can’t complain. I feel blessed that our problems are slight and that I have a family to worry about. God is amazing and in my daily Bible reading and prayer he shows me His peace and love. Who could ask for more?
Blessings!
