Re: tingling/numb face-Questions

Darla,

No great insights from me but I just had to comment as I've had some

strange numbness lately. It's a new thing with me, but I am quite run

down from a nasty bout with the influenza bug. At first I thought that my

neck must have been " out of whack " from laying in bed but that isn't it,

as the numbness has dissipated greatly but not gone away entirely. Your

comment about yours being related to being run down, sure resonated with

me and that was what I was attributing my fuzzy fingers to also.

Ada & I are not perking up the way one would hope from the flu. Both of

us have really been out of commission since the 6th of December. I am so

bummed about it too. I had so hoped for Ada to have a good winter-meaning

not ill for ever like last year and it just doesn't seemed meant to be.I

fear I need to confront some of those dark fears again. Dang! Still not

sure how I will proceed...., Red on the other had, never did get the flu

(he takes after his father in the health department) and we still are

watching for chickenpox. Could it be that he will take a miss on them

also?!

As for your young Luke, I too would wonder about what else he has not

shared. Seems kids are real good about getting use to the way certain

things are/or feel, and reach a point where they don't even realize that

it's not normal. I think I would try some exploratory conversations-in a

relaxed fashion- as I'm sure being the young man in the family he

wouldn't want to burden you in any way. I would quess that he feels that

you have your hands more than full with worry for the new babe and

Asenath.

So as mentioned, I've been laid up a bit and of course have not finished

my holiday shopping. Oh well! I had planned on sending you something for

the holidays, looks like it will be more like a new years something or

other.

Take care of yourself dear Darla. Rest, and enjoy your very bountiful

family. I am sure with all those kids there is joy to spare in your house

hold. Savor your moments with sweet Asenath & give her a hug from me.

Blessings,

Lee

Mom to Red, Ada & Angel Lily
