12 YEARS AGO
12 YEARS ago I took a job that I that I was not sure at the time I was ready for..I job that I thought I had prepared my self for..One that would last forever..One that was going to be beyond my widest dream the Best job ever..Being a Mom..
I remember the First time I saw My Allison 's little face..It is unexplainable how I felt..I remember feeling like those doctors had taken my heart right out of my chest..Love at first sight!! She was perfect in every way..
And She was mine..I remember Travis and I just gazing at her in disbelief She was ours!!
That day changed our lives forever..
Watching Allison grow older each year has been pure delight..(well most days)..She has blossomed into a wonderful young lady..
As beautiful on the inside as the outside!!
Caring, Ccompassionate, Loving, So Funny!!
There is not many days that goes by that she doesn't make us giggle and smile..
She is such a big help!!
She is so Wonderful with Bristol (and Madison when I am not watching).
I pray She lives the daysof her life to the fullest..
I pray She always has spunk in every step..
You are a Blessing!
Allison I love you more then you will ever know!!
I want you to know your Dad and I are so proud of who you are!!
Proud for you to call us Mom and Dad!
Happy Birthday Our Sweet girl!!

His Perfect Plan
About a week ago I was reading one blog that I read often. .it amazes me how many other family's there are that their stories are so like ours..This one blog really encourages me evertytime I read it.. It touches my heart how this mother copes with all the unknown things with her beautiful girls! She had written
" His perfect plan"
Knowing his ways are better than mine.
Even though it doesn't take away the hurt,
It takes away the fear!
What shall we say to these things? If God be for us, Who can be against us.
Romans 8:31
Wow this explains so much..It expresses how I feel..
Some will be quick to tell me "Just trust God"
I was asking myself why is this making me crazy? why can't I just cope?
But after reading this It puts it into words that I just couldn't put to paper myself..
Sometimes the hurt is more than I think I can bear..
Sometimes I don't think I can face another day of Therapy or doctors..
But each day I am renewed.. When my little B wakes up and She is smiling before she evens opens her beautiful eyes..I know that He has a Perfect Plan!
I have no fear that God is going to take care of Bristol..
I love the way my pastor prays "thank you Lord for everything you have already done for Bristol"
Everytime things seem to look gray, It turns out better than expected..
Thank You Lord for answering our prayers..
Bristol's lab results have finally come back and were read..All 3 tests were normal..This tells us that the leukodystrophy that was most likely she had tested negative..We will still watch her closely for losing any skills she has already mastered.. and will have another MRI next July..
We are so Thankful!

Lost
So I have been calling about Bristol's lab results re guarding leukodystrophy for 3 weeks now and finally got a nurse that was honest..She told me she was going to do some investigating but it appeared to be lost..I said you have to be kidding..We have been waiting 5 plus weeks for results that were to take 3-5 weeks...She told me she would call me back the next day and we would talk about what to do!!
So the next day she called and told me to bring Bristol back in the redraw the blood..She could not locate it in any lab they use...She was suppose to leave the orders at the front desk of the neurologist office and attack something to them to assure this would not happen again..She said the labs have to make several stops and must have got lost in the shuffle..
I took Bristol the next morning stopping at the Dr's office first to pick up the orders that were not ready..I was fuming..After talking to the front desk person she went to the back and came back with some orders that said ROUTINE..ugh NO.. I want this rushed..
So we went to the lab over at Wolfson..We always have much better luck there instead of the lab in Nemours..It was so crowded..I had never seen that many people in the main waiting area..We got to the lab and I thought I would ask just for the heck of it if she knew what happened to the original test.The lab person said give her a few minutes and she would look into it because "things just didn't get LOST there"...So after waiting a while she come and got us and took us back and said the blood was never sent to any lab because it was not enough and they needed little more..I said NO..I don't think so..I want a Brand New test..I tried to explain how important the test was through my tears and in a nice way..I was fuming by now..So after everyone pointing the finger at everyone else..We wait again..The result should be rushed this time and we should have some results in about 10 days..
