Updates

I have several blog posts started but not enough meat to publish. I hate these posts that are little more than snippet's of information so I apologize in advance.

Sleep - We are still making steady progress. We invested in another heavy blanket (Grace has had one for a while so now Abby has one) which is helping a little. The crying is down to under 30 minutes per night. My nerves are shot but progress is so reassuring.

Behaviorist - We STILL have not been able to even get a call back from the behavioral center. They are incredibly highly recommended or I would bag it and move on to someone else. Another week and I am ready to look elsewhere.

My Hand - Progress on this front is slow as well. With everything else going on I bagged hand therapy. I know I should have done it but fitting it in would have been so tough. I worked with an OT before surgery so I am sticking to those exercises. I can now bend my finger almost to touching my hand. My finger hurts every day but I hope in time that gets better. I go back to the surgeon in a couple of weeks and we are praying that the tumor is still not coming back. Fingers crossed!

Missing Rex - It's been tough. The girls have been shockingly resilient. They ask from time to time but are dealing so well. It has been especially tough for Brian. Rex was "his" dog and he loved him so much. Even I miss him. I am not a dog person but he was such a good dog.
