I love the computer for an...oh yes, I can relate!!!<br />I love the computer for an outlet, too, and most of what I do on it is about Suzy.<br />We'll just ignore there little glances,and remarks :)<br />If it wasnt' for us searching the web, we wouldn't know of as many treatment options, or ideas..... and isn't it mainly the Moms that do all of the extrea care, anyway/<br />My hubby is fantastic (and almost perfect); however, he is much more passive in the recovery of Suzy. He is more of a "let's just love her the way she is" kind of a guy.<br />I DO love her the way she is - but I just want to get her BETTER.<br />He also gets caught up in the financial aspect of treating Suzy more than I do.<br />So - I keep aggressively searching the web, and connecting with moms, and finding alternative therapies, and luckily, he keeps finding a way to pay for them.<br />I'm praying for Brextins seizures to stay away, and I'm glas to see a suck is improving.<br />The first time we did 40 dives, Suzy got her sucking and chewing back!. (That was last November '08; and she just took off from there! We has her feeding tube removed in Feb. '09 - 3 months later. ya-hoo)<br />Peace,<br />WhitneyWhitneyBoozehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08444683321175000004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6445865875188433871.post-84551335409225265262010-01-11T10:20:03.865-06:002010-01-11T10:20:03.865-06:00I will write you an email (eventually!) but I can ...I will write you an email (eventually!) but I can definitely relate.

Everybody needs an outlet, his might be to play raquetball and yours may be the PC. A true outlet is something that is for you...you should not feel guilty about taking some time for just yourself (take a bath, read a book, go to a movie)doesn't happen often as a Mom but try once a month to start. Being a parent is hard enough throw a special needs child in and it is overwhelming most of the time. I try to live the motto of "Don't sweat the small stuff" and "am I going to be mad about this in 10 years?" The answer is usually: No, probably not. Brush it off, not worth the argument.Lori Williamsonnoreply@blogger.com
