Maddie

[Guest guest]

Dale-thanks for your reply-we always have had her subclasses checked-everything

has always just bordered on the edge of low. The doctor really feels that

clinically speaking she has not been this sick in a long time. he was concerned

about her weight loss, and amount of illness-versus where she has been in the

past. I feel pretty confident in who we are seeing-and he was the first one to

tell us that if he feels he can not manage her, he will send us to Cincinnati to

see Dr. Bleesing.

I think it all hit me today-especially when I got to work and found out that all

of a sudden my attendance is an issue-never has been before-and that I may lose

my job. Of course they have another position just like mine that they can not

even fill-so I do not know what he thinks he will do if he fires me-I will not

willingly go-I love my job. My older daughter really got emotional last

night-Maddie has been very tired lately-usually in bed before 7:30 or so-and

really wanted to ask questions last night. Of course she cried-and I

cried and well-I am about cried out. She was worried about telling her

friends-they all love Maddie and will be very worried about her-so I think we

are going to try to keep it quiet until we get some real answers-of course we

live in a very small community so that may not work!

Anyway-this has been a reality check day for me-and at 4:15 I am ready to go to

bed for the night!
