fate of the curls



Of course my heart is full. Swirling with so many thoughts.


And I was going to spill it. Here.
But everything was coming out wrong.
And I thought maybe that's because I just need to be silent today.


It feels like one of those moments when the hush should be deafening.

So I'll let it. Be.
























Until I take that call tonight. And hear word of the fate of the curls...

Hoping that call comes earlier than you think....and that you are ready for whatever the answer is. I love the curls, but they'll grow back. Removal of the seizure monster within would certainly be worth it!

I will be checking in like a mad woman today!! As anxious as I am to hear the news, I also understand that either way, you will probably need some personal time to soak it all in. But...still checking anyway!!

By the way, so glad to see the Detroit photo is the new star of the blog!! It's such a gorgeous shot of Trevy!

Praying for good news from Detroit...

I've got fingers, toes, legs, arms & i tried eyes(until i was afraid they might stick that way like my mama told me) crossed today for you guys. I'm with Liz, I'd hate to see the curls go but I'm all for getting rid of the seizure monster!!! I'm sure all of our guts are in knots for you. It's almost like we are the mothers to all of the IS kids. {{{hugs}} to you, monica

I cried when I got the news

I felt like such a heel not going with Trevy for his first post hemi EEG. Yeeeeeees...Jonathan went with him. Yeeeeeees...he's just as good as me. But still! He's my baby! I was instead sitting on floor 6 east waiting for Neurology to get their boots here and help me sort out this medicine mess! Seriously it's like a bad joke...how many Neurologists does it take to write a bloody script? And fax prior authorizations? Cause Trevy's been back for hours now. And I'm STILL waiting! Anyway... Jonathan had just stepped out to meet the pizza delivery guy when Dr. EEG made his rounds. Of course I asked immediately if he had read the EEG. Of course he had. That's why he was there afterall. And I cried when he told me... that for the first time in almost two years. For the first time since this whole crazy mess began. my baby's EEG is completely normal! Side Note: It's super fun to sob in front of Japanese men and watch them squirm When I kept repeati...

I sure hope...

they grow back curly! Saw the "unknown" flashing on the face of my cell phone and knew who it was. Who it had to be. Dr. Fellow. My eyes met Grams' and I nodded. Grams has a pool, see. For super hot days like today. We're also having a septic installed. Which meant no water or facilities at my place. But those weren't really the reasons I was there. Close to mom. The purple ringing thing in my hand was. Only I wasn't prepared for it to be ringing SO darn soon. Shortly after lunch instead of dinner! I swallowed. Took a deep breath. And clicked connect. Dr. Fellow has a very nice phone tone. Clear. Hint of compassion. If only a stitch of humor were added...it'd be heavenly. But there was no humor. Just business. He's very direct. I'm learning that about him. Which explains his short hello. Followed by immediately pushing into the news. Being that it was a unanimous consensus. The entire surgical committee feels Trevor is a good candidate. And then p...

it's like being asked to the prom...

only MUCH MUCH bigger! I had noticed (yes...I stalk my site meter!) that a government ISP had logged onto Trevor's blog. Whoever it was had spent a good deal of time hanging out too. Followed a few minutes later by a government ISP...hailing from Washington. As in DC! My eyebrow raised. It was just kinda odd. Note-able odd. You know? Anyway...later that day (last week) I was folding laundry & thinking my crazy insane thoughts. Along these lines... I hope I'm not saying anything I shouldn't! Maybe I made somebody mad? Wait a minute! I live in America! I'm allowed to say anything I want! Aren't I???? A shout from the other room interrupted my thoughts before I had a chance to further mull. It was Jonathan. I had just received an email. **Side note...he's always doing that! Reading my emails! Sheesh!*** The said email was from a US Senator's aide! Asking if he could speak with me. Little ole' hardly has time to splash some make-up on ...
