Well Fred maybe gone but my infection is not. I started to get sick again, I knew right then the UTI was not gone. So I am on another round of medication and feeling like poo. The medication should start working soon. My doctor said that the medication that the ER gave me does not always wipe out UTI's.
Well we got more snow and the kids got two more days out of school. I got one day off of work. And now this weekend it is supose to be in the sixties.
Got to love Texas!!

And we have a new doctor...
I have been working on getting Kyra into a new neurosurgeon, one that deals with Chiari more then just "here and there". Dr. Swift in Dallas, I have heard from several that he is excellent with Chiari. Call it what you want, but I want the best doctor possible for Kyra.
We have a lot of unanswered questions. Has she gotten worse, being the big question.
I got a call today that the doctor has received everything and I was asked several questions. The doctor has stated that she needs a full work up again this year, with some extra tests that have never been completed on her. She explained that this is going to be a process that is going to take time.
If we have learned one thing with Chiari, it is to have "Patience". From here we move on to paper work and getting information from her regular doctor for insurance purposes. After that she will have a full body MRI. She will be put to sleep for about two hours and they will run the MRI (which will tell us a lot, fingers crossed). After the MRI a Sleep Study will be done. We will stay in the hospital for this.
After all tests are complete we will see doctor and get the results. The results are what is so hard to have patience and wait for.
What we have to do is just pray for the road ahead of us.Will keep everyone updated.

Winter Storm 2011
Speaking to my neighbor today I asked him when the last time was that we saw snow like this in Texas. I knew he would know.
He stated, 1950. The snow continued today. I have never seen anything like it. School has been out for four days. My work has been closed.
Today it was beautiful. So much snow! I have no clue how much, but I can say a whole lot.
Wesley had to go to the doctor after work this morning. He has been in a lot of pain, but was able to get all his medications today.
It ended up being a great day. We all played out in the snow together and then me and Wesley went on a date tonight. Dinner. It was nice. Does not happen a lot.
Here are some pictures from today. The forecast is saying temps higher tomorrow, so I think it will start to melt away. But, next week we are calling for more snow. Crazy!!
Snow Ball Fight!
Come On!! Please play with me.
Do not eat yellow snow!
Hit Me!
Our Baby!
Beautiful Snow Angel

Last Photo, Breanna has had enough!!

Day # 3
We live in Texas, right!?!? As far back as I can remember we have not had a ice/snow storm like the one we had Tuesday. We are on day number three of being stuck in this house. The kids have had no school. The roads are frozen solid and we are forecasted for more snow tomorrow. Remember I just had surgery and this week was suppose to be about resting. HA!! No really, I have rested, and have enjoyed just being lazy for a change. My work has actually been closed the last two days, so I was not docked any time.
I am feeling much better. Actually by Tuesday I was doing very well, besides the staples inching like crazy. I get them out today; if the doctor is open, ha.
I can tell a difference. I have had a few times of my tummy still getting upset, but overall I can eat now without getting sick. Praise God!! So hopefully that is the end of my problems.
This is not a good photo, but just a few staples and soreness. I am good :)
Wesley has been a different story. The doctor has been closed and he is out of medicine. But, there is hope in sight today. They are suppose to open. He has really been battling the Chiari headaches.
The kids have been ripping the house apart. I think they are tired of this house.
What do you think?
This picture does not do the playroom justice. We cleaned last night, not for sure why. Ha.
So here we go day number three. Will let you know what Mother Nature does next.
