Gonna have to learn sometime, right!

Wed January 30 2008;

Holy cow, I'm so not into the computer world yet. Hopefully soon I can rectify this.

For those that know, this is just a rant. For those that don't, Kenny has been going backwards in development since the fall. We are seeing a Ped, and trying to figure out what is up with him.

What is going on with Kenny. I'm just pulling out my hair trying to deal with him and the many conflicting problems he has. Like what the heck happened to the potty training! I just don't understand how he could go from trained with both pee and poop to having to put a diaper on him.

And what's with the grunting? Why is he doing that? He knows his words and how to express himself verbally. He's been doing it for ages. And the head shake/circle thing. That is so spooky to watch.

Lydia, from Trellis, and I had a meeting yesterday about Kenny and all the different strengths and weaknesses he has. I was going to get the paper's today, but because of the weather, that is not happening. Anyway, I'm just so confused about it. Even Lydia and his favourite teacher in the whole wide world, Miss Sarah, are confused about the signs he's giving.

The Ped is having us take him in for an EEG. Maybe it's seizures. Or maybe it's autism. Or maybe diabetes. Or maybe it's one of a thousand things that can go wrong with little children. Lead poisoning? Nothing? See what I mean. And the worst part is he can't tell us. We have to sit back and watch him go through a crapload of testing. It's killing me inside watching him get poked and prodded, not understanding what is going on and looking at me with that sad face.

Guess we will just have to wait. One day at a time. Damn it's hard.

As for Maddy, she is, well Maddy! My lovable, demanding, bossy 5 yr old that expects the world handed to her. Different issues with her but still, she is also driving me to the brink of craziness then does something that totally blows me away.

Tana called last night. Something about getting a computer for herself and school. Doorknob here told her to talk to her Dad (Rob) cause my opinion is pretty useless when it comes to computers and what does what. Now give me a camera, and I can tell you what that is about.

Lets see if I can keep my head above water for another day!
