Hello...

All went great yesterday. Grace got her new glasses and they are so adorable on her. She picked them herself and she got a new glass case that is powder pink that looks like a little Kate Spade purse. She loves it. She is trying to get used to the transition lenses. I am hoping that this will help her when she is outside. She tends to look down a lot outside due to the sun, so hopefully this will help her gait and posture.

The neurologist stated that I cannot hurt my brain anymore at this point, unless I hit it again. I am guessing that he was stating another good blow again, and not for example, me hitting my head in the garage and on the closet molding and another place that I cannot remember right now! HA

I feel fine, he stated that I have a pretty good concussion probably grade II or III, based on my signs and symptoms. There is no way for him to detect when my symptoms will subside, they should usually disappear in two weeks, which is today. So we will see. I have no activity limitation, wahoo hooo!!! Just take my time if symptoms get worse. Also, the worst that could happen, but not likely is I with activity could just get really dizzy and nauseated, but he would be surprised if it lead to passing out or vomiting!! Personally, I cannot wait to get some of my memory back. I spend about five minutes trying to figure out which way to get to that appointment on Monday, I have only been there at least five times in the past two weeks!! CRAZY!!!

So I hope I did not scare anyone in my previous blog. I promise I am harmless. I needed to purge the frustation at how long I have been at this (over 2+ years) and not where I want to be in helping her reach her full potential. Please pray that anyone who evaluates her sees her through God's eye's and mine too. No one knows her better than us. She is so intelligent, she knows when she is being evaluated and I see her 'playing for the camera'.

Last night, she told me that she loved me because I help her to learn. I think she said that because she heard me at the meeting express that I wanted the skills/tools/team to help her learn.

I am off for some much needed R&R! Will post again the week of September 10th. Have a wonderful Labor Day weekend, be a blessing to others, mindful of your time and be safe!
