Enjoying the fall weather before it disappears and turns to winter, we went to the pumpkin patch the other day, the kids loved it and Emma fell in love with the dog on the farm there, lifeās been crazy but so good with them
Itās been miserably cold here and weāve been stuck inside for over a week, last few weeks were a little hectic, Emmaās had 3 seizures since December 21 even with being on new meds and Owen had to have a breathing treatment last Friday because his asthma got so bad but on a happier note Owen started karate yesterday and loves it! And my best friends dog had puppies and we will be getting one, his name is Oreo and we get to bring him home February 23 and Kyle and I had a date day yesterday!
Finally have answers
Well we finally know what is causing Emmaās seizures, when Emma had her first seizure in February her doctor immediately told us that it sounded like the seizure activity was coming from her temporal lobe, it took almost 9 months of tests, eegs, blood work and an MRI but last week we finally got results, she has scarring on her left temporal lobe which is causing her partial complex and absence seizures, where they are also affects her emotions, memory, social skills and some physical stuff which explains a lot about her actually, the only part we really werenāt expecting was that this is something that will never go away for her, originally her doctors thought she may eventually grow out of the seizures but thatās not the case, she will have this the rest of her life unless in adulthood she decides to have a surgery to remove the scarring but even then it only works in 60-70% of cases so thatās where we are right now
Photo dump of the babes ā¤ļøš I love these kids so much!
I adore my little humans šā¤ļø
Kindergarten
Owens kindergarten orientation is tomorrow and I'm sad but so excited for him, we will get to meet his teachers and see his classroom and get the feel of things but we had a bit of a cry tonight because he told me he was scared that I was leaving him by himself and he wouldn't know anyone and it just broke my heart a little bit, I didn't think I was going to but I'm gonna cry tomorrow
My babies are getting so big! Owen starts school in 2 weeks and Emma will be going to daycare! Times going too quickly
I'm a "mean mommy"
I just threatened to take away all of Emma's books and her bookshelf if she didn't actually go to bed and stop trying to take her books off her shelf (an hour and a half past bedtime š) little miss went to bed real quick after that but only after she told me "mean mommy!"
Whhyyyyy?
Woke up and had 12 porn blogs following me, why???
She adores her brother so much ā¤ļøš
Alright, guys. This is me taking yaāllās advice and accepting help. This is extremely hard for me to do and all I really want to do is apologize a million times for asking anyone to help me out of a situation I got myself into, but youāve been telling me for years to get myself out of it and to take the help, and Iām finally ready to go.Ā
I feel like I need to post a back story for anyone who hasnāt been following me through this entire thing, just in case itās reblogged, but I also want to say that my whole life is on this blog and youāre more than welcome to read through it and see all of the good and bad times yourself.Ā
Before I get started with all of that, this is me attempting to scrounge up enough money to buy myself a cheap car that will get me to and from work. My friend has offered me a place to stay free of charge so that I can get myself and my kiddo back on our feet and get our own place. She lives in the middle of nowhere on a farm, and I work close to an hour away from where she lives, but it is the best and safest option right now and I know that Iāll be able to help her in exchange for helping me, as she has a one year old and a newborn and a deployed husband and is doing it all on her own and is absolutely overwhelmed. I feel good about staying there with her. But I do need a reliable vehicle because thereās no public transit nearby.Ā Everyone on Tumblr has recommended NOT to go through GoFundMe because of the percentage of money they take at the end, and said theyād prefer to donate through PayPal, so my PayPal email is [email protected]. I feel really weird about doing it through PayPal because I canāt write all of this up on there andā¦.well, I donāt know. It just feels weirder than starting a GoFundMe, but you suggested it and even said you preferred it, so Iām going to take your advice. Back story: I married a guy who was in the Army back in 2013. I went against my better judgment for whatever reason and put myself in a situation with a compulsive liar and cheater and spent the last four years trying to make things work. There were good times and bad times, but so many more bad than good, and pretty much everyone on here whoās been following me knows all about it. He cheated on me twice, once with a woman, which I found out about while I was six months pregnant, once with a man while our daughter was an infant. He was pretty much forced out of the army for numerous reasons and no one in his chain of command was willing to help him out or go to bat for him so he could stay in. He got out two weeks after Ellie was born, and we ended up moving to Washington to start over. He used his GI Bill to go to school, but was actively choosing to skip class and fail (which I didnāt know - he was telling me he was passing school with flying colors), so he wasted two entire years of his GI Bill and now owes the VA $5,600 for failed classes and BAH. He managed to hide that from me for over a year before they finally stopped paying us BAH and I put two and two together. Now heās chosen to not register for summer quarter at all, which means he wonāt be paying rent. Iād pay it myself, but I pay his $400 car payment, the $189 insurance, the $180 phone bill and the credit card bills, so I literally cannot. That was his only responsibility - taking TWO classes, one online and one in person, to receive $936 to pay rent. Not hard, right? I even spent last quarter DOING AN ENTIRE ONLINE CLASS FOR HIM SO HEāD PASS. I literally did his work so we could keep a roof over our heads and provide for our child. While working 10+ hour days and running my etsy shop and wrangling a toddler. So, since he didnāt register and registration closed on the 6th and he seems indifferent to it, I asked him what his plan was to pay rent, and he said he was going to ask the church for help. Him, a man who shit talks Jesus like thereās no tomorrow and shits on religious people every opportunity he gets. He literally wants to take money from people who NEED it because he was too lazy to register for school. I asked what his back-up plan was when they laughed in his face, and he said it was to sell the couch, which we just bought with tax money, which is where my child and I have been sleeping since I asked him for a separation. When I asked him where we should sleep, he saidĀ āon the recliner. I donāt really care where you sleep.ā So, I married a compulsive liar who canāt man up and provide his half of supporting our family, whoās lied about cheating, drug use while in the army, current drug use, alcohol problems, compulsively purchasing marijuana, chewing tobacco and cigarettes when our bills are unpaid and we have $10 to our names, has screamed at me that he wishes Iād fucking die in front of our child, has hit me, smashed my phone on the ground so that I no longer had a way to keep in touch with friends and family - his words wereĀ ānow you can see how lonely I fucking feelā - has thrown my purse out the car window and ditched me by the highway and left with my child to go home, has literally left us without food and taken the car, has abused our dogs, has blamed me for every single thing wrong in his life because IĀ āwasnāt forgiving or understanding enough and was too hard to talk toā. I had my wake-up call, and this is me trying to get the fuck out of this situation. Weāve discussed divorce, Iām getting my name taken off of the lease this week so that I can leave this apartment and start over.Ā If yaāll have questions or just want to talk to me about things or have advice or know of a friend whoās selling a car anywhere in the PNW thatās reliable and decent on gas, PLEASE reach out to me. Iām having a very hard time swallowing my pride and doing this but I literally donāt have two dimes to rub together after paying bills that will go unpaid and tank my credit if I donāt pay them, and I have no idea how Iām going to get a car. Iām so sorry Iām asking for help. I love you guys for reaching out and supporting me and being awesome through this hot mess, especially those of you whoāve seen it all and have sent me words of love and encouragement to remind me that Iām doing the right thing and that itāll all get better. I couldnāt have done this without the girl gang Iāve found on this website. I hope I can pay all of the love and help forward in the future.
This is a direct link - my PayPal is linked up with my old business page so thatās the reason for the Little Yellow Poppies title. paypal.me/helpmegetout
Iāve followed this girl for years and I know that she wouldnāt be asking for help right now unless she really, desperately needed it.
She and her beautiful little daughter deserve ALL of the help and good things in the world after all the shit theyāve been through.
Please send something her way ā¤ļø At the very least, give her some reblogs and words of encouragement. Sheās an amazing mother and person who needs a fresh start.
I love you so much. Thank you. ā„ļø
Life's been good, super busy but so good, the weather is finally nice so we've been outside all the time playing at the park or in the pool or just going for walks, we've had Emma's seizures under control since April with her meds so that's been a relief, still waiting for more test to be done and an MRI likely won't be done until September now since they don't do MRI's on children during the summer here, Owens asthma has been bad the last almost 3 months he's been basically non stop coughing and we've been the the hospital for steroids and maskings 3 times since May, we are working with the resperologist on different meds and getting it under control but he thinks part of his issue is allergies and we can't get in to an allergist until August of 2018! It's crazy! Anyways here's a mini life update
Pictures and update, the weather has been nicer here and We had a good 2 week stretch of Emma having no seizures where she got to just be a kid, it was so refreshing only to have her have a over 4 minute seizure on Monday night and need to be brought to the hospital by ambulance (last picture is her in the hospital) the paramedic made her a "rooster" out of a glove to make her feel a little better he was literally the sweetest with her
Anyone have an iud and can't feel/find the strings but its still in the right place?
ANyone?
Yes!
A couple months ago, I started cramping horribly bad, beyond any cramping Iād felt before. I went to feel for my strings and they werenāt there. I immediately went to my doctor and they checked manually and with an ultrasound, reassuring me that the strings were there and everything was fine. The doctor explained that after a while, the strings soften up due to the fluids inside you.
Thank you for this! I have an appointment tomorrow because I went to feel for my strings and I can't feel them! Hopefully it's just something like this, I've had the iud for almost 2 years
Life update
I've been mia here for awhile, we've had a lot going on especially with Emma, almost 3 weeks ago now she had a seizure, she had no fever and hadn't been sick at all when it happened, since then she has had 4 more, her ped is thinking it's probably some form of epilepsy but she can't diagnose that and give medication until after all the tests have been done and we have the results, today was her eeg so we will go to the doctors next week and see what the results are for it, we are still waiting for an MRI to be booked, I've been a ball of stress I just want answers for my baby and to know what's going on.
Went to Zumba today, it was my first time doing it, I was exhausted afterwards but it was so much fun and it felt so good!
