Well, I started my week with x-rays for my face and teeth. I currently have 5 loose teeth and one is really moving. I is actually driving me CRAZY! We have to wait for the all the swelling to go down which will take about another week. So, that means a soft food diet for another week! YIKES! I want to crunch! I tried one day last week and was in pain...so, that cured me!
Thursday took us to Iowa City to meet with several of Teddy's advisors. President Obama was in town and I completely thought we would be fine because he was not planned to go on the East side of the river...well, as luck would have it...he decided at the last minute to stop at the bookstore..WHY...is it because he wanted to buy some cool Iowa clothes for him family because is brother in law is on the "short list" for the basketball coaching job! Just think maybe, he can give the Iowa basketball players a look at some of his moves, because clearly he is having fabulous time entertaining all kinds of people. The most exciting part was seeing all the Black Hawks in the sky to protect the air space. We did see the motorcade, which I always think is interesting. Something we saw everyday when we were in DC a few years ago.
Friday, I had to take Mimi to UICH. The poor thing has been in pain for years. She has dropped down in weight and it is time to find some answers. She had her procedures yesterday and for a tiny little 9 year old, it was hard for a mother to endure alone. Ed decided he was not going to go with us and yes, I am a little bitter. I was fine until it started taking longer and longer. I was starting to get worried. Apparently, for good reason. The had a hard time getting around her tiny little body and it took her a long time to "wake up". She has had bleeding and damage to her colon. Her stomach was bleeding when they did the scope. We will not have the "official" results until next week sometime. Once, we know what is wrong, we can deal with it. It does give us some comfort to know we are not 'CRAZY'! No wonder she has been hard to live with, she does not feel good. I have been saying that for a long time and everyone simply thinks she is spoiled, especially, her father!
Today, we go to another dance competition. She just had a little breakfast and her stomach is hurting. I just breaks my heart that she is in pain and I can't do a darn thing about it.
We are suppose to go out with friends tonight. I am sure we will have to watch basketball...which, is what we ALWAYS do on my birthday weekends. Oh well, at least, I get to go out and be with Eddis and our friends.
I always have a positive attitude about life and everything in general and that is NOT changing now...
