It was HIS idea. Just to be clear.

M asked me to guest blog a recent adventure with medical procedures for the purpose of keeping further “surprise” babies from showing up.  I wish I had video of the whole experience. As his mom put it, it was “comedy gold.”

    justin must never...NEVER...read this post. But it's okay. Because I've read it and laughed over it enough for both of us...ironically, i see the word verification for my comment is "bedding". I adore you RK. Absolutely adore you.

    I read it last night and laughed my butt off!! Then I called my husband in to read it, and his response was "Did they knock him out for it???!! I didn't know they knock you out for it!!" I lost it! You're an AWESOME story teller, let me just say!

    You made my day! Hope Muncher is feeling better by now. But we sure enjoyed a laugh at his expense. :)

    Wow what a crazy experience that was! I can't believe the nurse didn't help, or get someone to help you when you were attempting to get him dressed as he was unconscious! Ridiculous! I can't believe they let him leave like that either.

    I sent it to Joe to read and he said "you want me to read this why?" LOL

    Oh my gosh, I am so behind in my blog-reading and when I read this I just fell apart laughing...sitting on my front porch for all to hear, tears rolling down my face. That was the funniest story I've heard in ages and I can't believe you even thought to get pictures.
    My nephew's friend had the dr. literally die while he was performing his same procedure and here was the poor guy laying on the table while they had to deal with it. I never heard what ever happened, but can you even imagine?
    Thanks so much for sharing, you are a gifted writer.

Can I get a do-over?

If you are in need of a laugh at another's expense, I invite you to read on... really, it's totally ok. I can take it. This might end up long, but I wanna remember this special day. Oh so special... Today is my first day to have both girls and be on my own. Yeah, it's been two weeks, but I'm apparently slow at learning how to deal with this kind of thing. I knew it would be a challenge, but I thought with starting way early, we could make it. The quick ending is that we did make it...but that's not really the whole story. Kinlee's been sleeping til about 9 am or so after getting up twice in the night. That's ok, I'm dealing with it. But since Braska is supposed to be at school at 10 am on Mondays, I thought I better not sleep in like I prefer, and instead, I should get up and get things moving earlier to be sure we're on time. Not a problem, since Braska decided to be up twice last night in addition to Kinlee's two times. One time overlapped...so...

New Fave-o Site

Get a cup of good hot chocolate, put on your comfy clothes, and settle in with some non-rushed time to check out Dan Drinker's site . I can't even tell you how much I love watching these videos and reading what his family has written about him. I feel like I want to tune into the Dan Drinker 24-hour channel or something. Dan is a young man with DS who is living and loving life, and his younger brother Will captures much of it on video. It's priceless, in my opinion. I just love it. Check out the blog, watch some videos, tell them that you've been there. I wish this guy lived near me! The most recent post, about Breaking Up with Christine , is funny and poignant. Here's a couple of my other favorite videos so far... I've still got more to watch! His 7th Prom A Basketball Date with Sarah

Little call, big letters

This will make more sense to you DS moms and families out there... I apologize for the cryptic nature, but you'll have to trust my reasoning. Braska had a lab draw on Tuesday last week. The GI called me Wednesday and said there were some significantly elevated levels in the results. Ok fine. Not like we've never had an abnormal lab. But then he used *those* words...the C word and the L word. Said he'd be talking to hem/onc. We needed to go redraw on Friday morning. We didn't freak or anything, but when I hung up the phone, I thought, "Wow, so that's what it's like the first time they mention it." We took her for her draw again on Friday morning, and we figured everything was fine since we got no call over the weekend. Yesterday I checked in with them. Dr. R confirmed that everything was clear, almost in a "weird way," but they checked with the lab to make sure it was a viable result. All is well. Follow up in 6 months as usual unle...
