[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 363241, member: 1991"] G'day, folk. Sharon/WO, sorry difficult child is sick again. It means a lot of hands-on from you plus loss of sleep. Have you considered the possibility that his sickness is anxiety-related? Rabbit, I hope you get to rest today to re-charge your energy for tomorrow's busy day. difficult child 3 had a study day today, it was well-attended. There would have been about 30 students there as well as a number of teachers and other parents. I stayed for the first session (poetry) and was pleased to see difficult child 3 engaging in it and talking to the teacher. But I was very tired, I left to go back to the car after their morning break. I slept soundly for over an hour, I didn't get back to the kids until after their lunch break. husband was sitting in the school library (right next to where the classes were) but difficult child 3 didn't need him; lunch and refreshments were all included. Class finished later than usual and I had a doctor appointment scheduled across town, so we hit the road fast. Only 15 minutes late (a miracle) plus the doctor was running late anyway. I talked to the doctor about the chest pain I had on Sunday, she told me to call the ambulance next time and ensure an ECG gets done while I'm still in pain. But she is also thinking that heart problems are probably not the cause. However, I do have to have a stress test to rule it out. OK - more doctors, more tests. Just what I didn't need to fill my empty, dreary and boring life... We left the doctor in time to get to drama class for difficult child 3, then we wen tto dinner. difficult child 3 always buys his own fast food (each week he laternates - pizza one week, burger the next. Even if he felt like the other, he has to stick to his schedule) so this week we said, "Go get your burger and eat it, then join us in the restaurant, we will order food we know you like." Which we did - only he had also taken advantage of our long absence at the doctor's earlier, and bought a bag of M&Ms which he had polished off. So - no room in the inn, folks. Stuffed to the gills. So we doggy-bagged it all (difficult child 3 saying, "Woof, woof!" to the waiter) and because tomorrow is a day when we get to come right back home after the early morning radiation treatment, we'll eat or leftovers for lunch and hopefully difficult child 3 will have more room. We are trying to teach him to come in to the restaurant for dinner with us; he's been getting more rigid about his food again. So now we're home, just got in, it's still early evening but we've had dinner already, the budgies are back in their cage for the night, difficult child 3 is feeding the chickens (also all in bed) and I'm following the birds' example and heading for bed too. The tiredness from the radiation has just ramped up another notch! So - enjoy your Tuesday. Marg [/QUOTE]
