Yep, still here! I took Andrew to the doctor today and is sending us for an MRI of his hip. Last week she got the referral for Loma Linda Hospital and they want to do more x-rays but she doesn't want to expose him again so she ordered an MRI and insurance approved it. Plus, we couldn't get into Loma Linda until October 12th and since our insurance will be changing soon we would have to start all over again. We LOVE our pediatrician! She took care of this without me even knowing anything about it and I love that about her. When I need something done I have to call my doctor and ask for it and then keep bugging them about the referral. She doesn't mess around and I like that. We have to get an appt for the MRI and she gave me some medicine to sedate him so he doesn't freak out. So, basically if she doesn't find anything in the MRI then we are done exploring his hip. She calls him her little mystery patient and she wants peace of mind (as do the rest of us) that nothing is wrong. If we don't stay here I will definitely miss her.
Everything is still the same. Waiting to find out the last day of work and insurance. Waiting to see if the new company offers him a job. Waiting to see if he can get another job. Waiting.....did you know that I'm not good at waiting? It has consumed my mind. I know we will be fine in the end and I know that God will provide but it still consumes my mind. I eat, sleep, and breathe wondering when we will have answers.
Well, I hear my dog outside my window trying to kill himself to get through the gate. He has chewed through the wooden gate and I have it blocked with chairs but he still manages to get in. Oh yeah, what on earth will I do with these dogs if we go? Just playing the waiting game! Sure wish someone could just give us the answers.

Hi Melissa, I am so sorry that you are going through this. I know that David is worried too. I am one of the best worriers so I cannot say not to worry. My son Scott is getting ready to change jobs in Florida. He has another opportunity that may be available to him. They have a lovely home that they rent and their lease is up the end of July so they are hoping they get to stay in their home. Nothing is like it use to be. You use to get a job and stay there and retire. Now, you are just lucky that you have a job. There are so many people on unemployment and no jobs. I do know that God can perform wonders. I have a pillow that says,When you reach the end of your rope ,tie a knot in it and hang on. That is what you will have to do right now. Let go .Let God. Love and peace to you and your family.Love , Kathy
