Day 1

All right folks, I thought I would start a blog for Kayli as to keep everyone in the latest know how!! :) I figure it is easier for me to type on here every day (or if I miss a day or two you will know that my head was not doing well at all!)  So here is the diagnosis for the day.

As you can see I am going to talk about Kayli first.  So today was a good day for her.  She woke up and was feeling pretty good.  She took a shower and got dressed and she was her old self.  She hung out with me and we watched "Momma's Boy" which is hilarious!!! She then went with my mom to get an MRI of her head.  She was put into the contraption and without thinking opened her eyes in the tiny tube of misery and alas, she got claustraphobic and was seconds away from pushing the button to be released when she started to pray and shut her eyes and she made it out in 30 minutes.  We will be getting the results from that within the next day or two.  She had an appointment with a hand specialist tomorrow so I will be updating you on that as well later.  She had a good day, but as it started getting later so started to get a little loopy and so she took some meds and she is down for the evening.  She is doing alright though.  Hopefully she has an even better day tomorrow!!
 

Today I started out with a pretty bad headache, I went to my Chiropractor who has had 3 years of neurology and he adjusted me and said that my left brain looks better than it did before so he thinks that is moving in the right direction.  He also said that he thinks that is just a part of it.  He also believes that it has something to do with my petuitary gland (it is located at the base of my brain).  So he adjusted me, which happens to hurt like no other mother and sent me home with a little test and an appointment to see him in 2 weeks.  On our way home I got a really bad headache and felt aweful so as soon as we got home I got on the couch and my mom brought me some tea.  Sidenote: I have the best mom in the whole entire world!!  She has taken care of me for little over 6 weeks now and drives me to all of my appointments and the poor thing is so tired, but never complains at all!! (end sidenote)  So she made me food and I took some exedrine which helped a bit but not too much.  Then she left to take Kayli and I was feeling really sick not just my head and I had some sort of breakdown... like full out bawl like a baby on the floor mess!!  I didn't like that I was alone in the house feeling aweful and it was not fun!  I called my daddy and he talked with me for quite a bit and prayed for me and so that was great!  My head is still painful, but hopefully we are moving to an answer!!  I know that was long, but I hope it filled you in on some of the important details.  Maybe tomorrow we will get up and walk around the house without being looked after.... you never know what kind of crazy things we have up our sleeves!  Thank you so much for praying for us and caring for us.  You are amazing!!   We love you all and will talk to you tomorrow!!
