Well I said I was going to make an effort to post at least monthly and it's halfway through February already so here we go! Yea, and Happy Valentines Day and all that stuff too ;-)
Not much change with dad since we visited. He had an appointment with her Neurologist this past week and mom said they are going to reduce the dosage one the one medication to see if it helps with his balance but yet still keeps him sleeping at night so he doesn't have the dreams. She said they should know within a week or so if it is helping. He has another appointment in 3 months.
Dad called last week and we had a nice chat. He said he wanted me to know that even though he doesn't see my kids all the time that he is always thinking of them too and loves them very much. I would have cried more if I wasn't at work. In texts he is always telling me "make sure you tell the kids how much I love them" and always telling me he loves me. When I tell him I love him he always says I love you more.
What to pray for.. the medication changes and that dad's balance gets better. Continued prayers always for my mom, brother and sister-in-law as they deal with this on a day to day basis.
What I'm grateful for... other than his balance things sound like they are going pretty good at home with dad so that's a good thing. I'm also happy that my kids are happy. They are all in a pretty good space right now.
