Hi all,

Haven't posted much lately as have been behind, etc with all the school stuff

and getting the kids into their respective activities.....KWIM?????

Kaitlyn started highschool and is loving it. She was asked to be student

manager on Volleyball, so she is gone alot for that and then had early morning

band practice etc....

Libby is in 6th grade and the BB season has already started. They also just

started band and she picked the sax so luckily she and Kaitlyn have sectionals

at the same time in the mornings, so we only have to drive once.

igh started in Early Childhood Special Ed preschool in the mornings and

kindergarden in the afternoons.....So, she is gone all day everyday...Talked

with her preschool teacher this morning as on Friday she chopped part of her

hair off, right at the base of her neck.....and her hair is almost down to her

butt....UGH. Found out that she scored the highest in her K class for the

prereading skills, so wonder what that will mean in regards to her staying in

the Preschool area to get the OT stuff....When I watch and her and

compare motor planning.....there is no comparison.....I know you aren't

supposed to compare kids, but is almost three years younger and does a

better job with eating and all that motor stuff...

As for , We are on our second sinus infection this fall. We still

haven't got a final answer from Cincy on anything.....I emailed Dr. B with

some questions last week and he hasn't replied. I feel like a broken record.

I think if we didn't treat as soon as we do, that he would be getting

sicker than he does. He hasn't gained any weight since this summer....He is

getting taller, but only weighes 34# now with shoes and clothes on.....and

that probably means he has lost some weight, especially now with the cooler

weather....The labs at Cincy showed an IGG of 389 now and the IGA and IGM are

now low again also....Certainly don't know what to make of that. I am

considering not taking him in when I do...I usually wait a week with symptoms

and then take in....and just see what happens. I think Influenza is already

out there according to one of Libby's friends' mothers. Her daughter was very

sick already this year and he feels it is influenza and made the comment to

her that in a month " everyone's labs will look like her.. " Makes me a little

nervous.

Welcome to the newbies.

To everyone who is battling sickness, I wish you a speedy recovery.

For those with IVIG shortage issues, please contact the IDF. They don't have

the safety net program, but are keeping track....

I send my best wishes to those suffering from Katrina and Rita, makes the

thunderstorms and blizzards of North Dakota seem mild.....I'll take 40 below

over hurricanes any day....

Wishing a happy fall to everyone.

Take Care.
