Good Night and Goodbye

Susan came by tonight to say goodbye and to set up Skype on my laptop (and cut my hair).  I leave Sunday for D.C. and she leaves Wednesday for Catalina so tonight was her last chance to stop by.

She will be gone for 2 1/2 months or so and I will miss her.

When she first said she was leaving I was like "What about your job?"  "What about your apartment?" "How can you just take a leave of absence from work like that?" "What about $$$?"

All those mother kinds of worries.

I really couldn't figure out why anyone would do such a thing.

Then Gene told me why. 

Because she is 24 and 

She can.

Aloha my baby girl!

Reading

We were challenged to read the Book of Mormon in its entirety by May 19.

That is what I am doing today.

Reading. (Which also means I'll be resting my shoulder today too).

What??????

Hannah's IQ dropped 11 points in 4 years.

She was Borderline Mild Mental Retardation.

She's now Moderate Mental Retardation.

46 IQ.

How does that happen?

Either she's topped out already at age 11 :(

Or it is the effect of the seizures :(

Wish we could get them under control - still around 2 dozen a day (many falling on the ground kind).

They control us - what we do, where we go, how long we stay, how we sleep.

The medicines she is on aren't worth crap.

She just had a really big one - thank goodness she was already sitting on the floor.

She's a trooper.
