Normal!!


I'm posting again today because Ewen went to soccer practice tonight. I told him he could leave after an hour as DH was going out there to the fields and staying just incase. But Ewen stayed at practice the whole 2 hours and according to DH, had fun. Now he is at home. He had some food, a bath and he is currently relaxing at his computer. I just asked how he was and he said..."good!"
That is a much different answer than the previous times he has come home from rigorous exercise. I can't believe it. This is very good news. This is the normal I have been aching for for so many weeks.
-Just wanted to share!! :) Now we will see how bed time goes as I am off to boot him off his computer and usher him to bed.

Spring Break 2017 Update

4ml Prozac, 500mg Zithromax 3x a week, 1.5 mg melatonin, less than a quarter of Clonidine Ewen is doing well. Right now he is vacuuming and mopping the whole house (all 850 square fee lol) To earn an hour of screen time playing Overwatch. We have had a few hiccups. He got in major trouble in school for hacking into the computer and writing silly things on a class web page. He said he didn't realize he would get a referral and get in so much trouble since he wasn't hurting anyone and would never bully. He also dropped his grades because he was too busy having fun with his friends. So Mike and I had a meeting with his teachers. He now has a 504 plan since he has had lots of absences.  We are paying close attention so that we can make sure he completes his assignments. Last month he was having trouble with tics (mostly huffing) and anxiety and so his pediatrician put his Zithromax up to 500 mg every day for a full week. That completely helped and was amazing to get him back

The Chair of the Pediatric ER Wrote Back!!!!!

Ms. ....... Thank you very much for bringing your son’s case and experience to our attention. First of all, I hope that Owen is still doing much better. I absolutely understand how devastating this could be in terms of a missed opportunity to appropriately diagnose. I have to say that in reading your email and updating my knowledge about the condition, I could see how it may be quite difficult to make a diagnosis accurately in an Emergency Department setting and I could see why things occurred in the manner in which they did. That said, I am very sorry that we let you and your family and your son down in this way. Our Pediatric Emergency Department are staffed by a group of very expert pediatric emergency medicine specialists trained in some of our nation’s leading teaching institutions who I was able to recruit here to ...........  to take care of our community. I know that the fact that we were not able to expeditiously diagnose your son’s condition caused a great deal of an

Good Day Good Summer - And My Oldest

(Just under 4ml prozac) Ewen has been doing fantastic. He has been hanging out with my sister and her family and talking and engaging with them. He has gone in the pool several times at his own will. He fell asleep on his own tonight and said that he felt rested and happy to fall asleep. I love that. His facial tics ( new nose twitch too) were in full form tonight. But he didn't huff. Maybe he traded the huffing for the nose twitch. My oldest (age 13) is going to a girls indie music camp this week. It is from 9am-5pm and on Monday when I picked her at 5pm up she started sobbing in the car and said she didn't know why. She said she loved it  but it was too long. I guess it was too much because she had to socialize for 8 hours (she has autism) and that was a bit much for her. Then she cried while trying to go to sleep at bed time and cried again at 4am. She was so depressed that I had to sit up with her at 4 and I got out her old baby books like Goodnight Gorilla and Goodnigh
