My Rock

If you know our backstory, you know Regan and I getting together was a long time coming. We both had our own relationships, but when it was our time to come together, our relationship took off fast and furiously. Did I pressure him? Maybe a little bit. But I knew what I wanted. Plus it got us where we are today.

And oh man, did I pick a good one. Through good times and bad, right? For sickness and health? Well here we were in the thick of it. The hardest thing we've been through in our 5 years.

The past 6 months especially have been rough. I am crying all the time. Sometimes for an unknown reason but he's always there to reassure me and pick me up.

At every appointment, he's the constant. He always has the perfect thing to say to me through my emotions.

I am so grateful that he is my partner, and that we get to raise these boys together.

He does everything for our family. He makes sacrifices to provide for our family. This allows me to stay home with Lincoln and Beckett and still live comfortably. For him, I am forever grateful.

EEG #3

Beckett had his third EEG one day last week, which I went into completely fine. I knew what was going to happen, and I was ready. I fully expected to receive a message from his neurologist shortly after saying "great news, normal EEG!" Well that's not what happened. I know there are many people who care about Beckett and are curious how he's doing. Lately, I've been putting posts together at the end of the month that are a complete summary of everything he's faced in that month. I feel like with this, it needs its own post because of the information that we have. Part of me doesn't want to put it out there because then it's real and people know, but the other part of me wants it out there because more people can pray for him. This morning, I received the results from his neurologist. She told me they saw seizure like activity, and she wanted to know if I had noticed anything at home, which I have. From someone who knows nothing about what a seizure loo...

Its April, Fools

We have finally started seeing the sun a little more this month and have been able to enjoy a lot more playtime outside. Beckett had another swallow study done this month because myself and his feeding therapist were worried about the possibility of him aspirating based on all the different symptoms he was experiencing at the beginning of the year, but it took a few months to finally get an appointment. He had a swallow study done in July 2022 that was completed by a radiology technician, and it showed essentially that he had a delay in his swallow. This time, it was being interpreted by a speech therapist, while the images were taken by a radiology technician. In the study, I brought his usual Kate Farms formula, prune juice/water combo, and a banana puree from home. Kate Farms is a thicker liquid, so he's been able to drink it just fine, but anything else he drinks has to be thickened. During the swallow study, we started with the juice/water mi...

Three-esta

In November, we had Beckett's Special Education evaluation. It was quite a crowd. In addition to me and Beckett, there was the Diagnostician, a Physical Therapist, Occupational Therapist, 2 Speech Language Pathologists, 2 Vision Teachers, and a Teacher for the Deaf. Prior to this meeting, we were sent questionnaires to fill out regarding Beckett's development so they had some sort of idea about what where he was at when they did get to meet him.  After their introductions, all the specialists observed Beckett's movements, and interactions, while they all took turns asking questions about his development that were specific to their individual evaluations. I answered what felt like never ending questions while they all fawned over Beckett, and they sent us on our way. As the diagnostician was walking us out, I had a little check in the see if she thought he would qualify for Special Education services. She was nodding yes, as she made sure to tell me she'd let me know onc...
