This week has been long and sad. On Tuesday two of my cousins were in a bad car crash. One of them was able to walk away with only cuts and bruises. Sadly The other one was flown to OU children's hospital and passed away Wednesday. Todd and i Feel really close to there dad and it has hit us really hard. Her funeral will be on Monday and i don't know how I'm going to get thru it will out falling apart. No parent deserves to lose a child. She is the sweetest child i have ever met and was just as stubborn as her father. I miss her so bad. I had not seen her in 2 weeks before she passed and now i regret not going to visit her family. I feel like i should have done more to get to know her. Rest in peace Trinity Kay Owen.She was only 7 years old.
On Tuesday We have to head up to OU children's hospital(I'm really starting to hate this hospital) for Steven to have surgery on his airway. We didn't know he was having surgery until a week ago. The surgery will be from 30 minutes to 3 hours with a possible over night hospital stay. They will decide during surgery if they are going to take his tonsils and adenoids, and/or if they will take more tissue out of his throat. They are also worried about his esophagus and airway being fused together and having a hole in it.It has been super long.
I have been sick for 4 months and the doctors are trying to figure out what is wrong with me. They have exhausted the easy causes. So i had to have a ultrasound of my gallbladder and digestive system. They didn't find anything so now i have to have a contrast study and they are talking about taking my gallbladder. I really don't want to have surgery, but i have to wait and find out what they want to do. Oh well So far life isn't that hard. lol.
these are for my sister.

I has been a Long summer. We moved out of Utah for Todd's job and Steven's health. Todd turned 25 and i turned 23. We moved in to our own apartment. Steven is going to therapy to help him learn to speak, be more independent, and to dress him self, etc. We have to start over with new doctors.

Someone likes to swim.
Steven wasn't to happy about having to be in a car for 3 days.

Well it has been a while since i updated. so far steven is doing ok he was on some meds to cure his aeroplasia. Thank goodness we took him off of the them this weekend because the meds were making him cranky and not sleep which ment mom did not sleep and you know what that means. this thursday we are headed back to the doctor to get more tests and find out if we will in fact have to have a G-tube. We put it off this long hopefully we can put it off longer. I will keep everyone updated. keep praying for the little man and i will put up pics soon.

Finally got home from the doctor at 3 something today. We found out that Steven has airaphagia (Spelling) which means that he is eating air and is filling his stomach up with it and that is why he is throwing up and possibly why we have a funny noise. So the 3 ways to fix this problem is to take his bottle away (he I not happy about that), put him on some meds and hope that it fixes it (on those now mommy is tired of meds.) and/or to put a G tube in his stomach to basically burp him. The tube can be removed but we are not sure how long he will have to have it.

steven came home from the hospital yeterday 2 days early. He is slowly recovering. He is not wanting to eat so we are trying to battle him on the subject but other wise he is good he is on pain killer to try to keep him curbed. We have found out a fun fact thru this. Steven acts really funny on loratab and gets really hyper and acts like he is high. They said this is normal but it is really funny. adly steven cant take a full bath for 2 weeks and we are doing sponge baths and lots of lotion. In 2 weeks we have to go back to the doctor for a post-op app and than we will decide what to do next to help steven if needed. hopefully steven is healthy and will not need any more surgerys.
