Prayer Request

Tonight was my nephew's graduation party and my ex-husband's dad that I am SO close to. Died on the way home from the graduation party. He had a heart attack in the car. They tried everything at the hospital but he didn't make it. My oldest Richard that is VERY close to his grandpa and named after him is very upset. We needs prayers to get through the pain and broken hearts.

Ann Arbor and back

We just returned from Ann Arbor. The doctor said that he does have hand tremors, but he takes so much medicine for his ADHD and Tourette's Syndrome that they don't want to add to it. So if it gets worse they will have to put him on something. They also want him to get a sleep study done. He talks in his sleep alot and hits the wall and jumps up to hit his pillow and so on. They also want to figure out why he gets dizzy and feels like passing out when he stands up so he thinks his blood pressure is dropping when he stands up. He also has problem's were everything goes black. So we have alot more test to go through but all is o.k. for now.

"Tremor's and I don't mean the movie"

Next week I will be taking Richard(he is my oldest) to Ann Arbor to a specialist down there because he is having hand tremor's. His hand shake all the time but when he tries to so something with his hands he shakes worse. So we are headed down there for a day of test and hopefully some answers. I'm asking for prayers that we get answers and that they can do something that will help him. He gets very irritated when he tries to so something and his hands shake.

"Yearly Checkup"

Well Richard went in for his yearly checkup. He has adhd so they have to get a physical and see how they are growing and gaining weight how they are doing in school etc. We don't have to worry about the growing thing. He is 14 years old and he is 5' 11" and weighs 140 lbs. I'm happy to see that he is finally gaining weight. Because of the medicine he has always been to skinny. All three boys have adhd and they are all tall for there age and the doctor says to skinny. Kyle is 5'7" and weighs 110 lbs and poor Trevor only weighs 58 lbs he has weighed this for about 2 years now. I'm waiting for the day he finally hits 60 lbs oh yah he starts middle school this year. I'm afraid they are going to eat him alive. My brother is 6'4" and my dad is 6'3" and my cousin is 6'6" that is where they get their height from.

"I CAN'T BELEIVE IT"

Well the boys got picked up by there father at 3:30 p.m. and then about 4:15 p.m. I received a phone call saying what do doctors do for a broken nose? So I said which one (meaning which boy) My ex said Richard. He was playing catch with his cousin and tried to hit the ball with the bat and the ball hit the bat then hit his nose. So I took him in to the hospital they checked him out and said that he has a hairline fracture in the bridge of his nose and he will be fine his nose is just going to be swelled up for awhile. My life is never dull.

We are still alive

I was gone for a few days last week I took the boys and one niece and one nephew camping in Grayling at a Yogi Bear park. I will post pictures later from them trip. Just wanted to let everyone know that we are still here and everyone is o.k.
