Gina's Ramblings

On the advice of a counselor of DS#1's I have applied for disability for DS. I know I know...but it isn't like we are trying to milk the system or anything it is just the expense of getting him what he needs to possibly be a part of mainstream society. The things that are recommended for him would be no problem if either he was my only child or if he wasn't so destructive at home (I am constantly repairing something or buying something new to replace something). But this will help with the cost of those things and the transportation to doctor appointments. That is IF we get approved. From what I have hear it is a battle in itself. I know though that we have the support of our doctors. Again thank God for our insurance. We are now OVER $50,000 for DS's hospital stay (new statements in the mail today)!


DS is doing ok. This week was better than the last. So I am embracing even the littlest improvements.

My other kiddos? They are doing wonderfully :) They are loving the freedom of summer and it is a constant whirl of friends over heading out to play and all of that. My neighbors jokingly called me Ms Suzy Homemaker because I call the kids in every night at 5:30. They know that means dinner is ready haha.
