Since I last wrote, we have had a major illness and two typcially minor surgeries that turned into a long recovery. Both my son and I had ENT issues and had some MAJOR recovery time. I have learned not to listen when the docs say....oh this is so easy, you will recover in NO TIME!
I will say that I was worried but then impressed with the surgical center that Son#1 had his sinus surgery at. We thought we were going to have to raise some "Cane" (where does that phrase really come from?)to get them to let one of us be there when he woke up. We told them that he was not typical 16 year old and what his challenges were. At first, they seemed resistent but then the day of...my hubby and I were relieved that they took so very good care of "all of us" and he did very well.
He was actually a very good patient. Of course, he was on pain meds for a few days so he didn't really feel the "sensory issues" until later with his nose. Overall he did very well and we were very proud of our Aspie! God helped him so much and we are very grateful for that. NOW>>>>>> he is paying us back BIG TIME by resisting getting back into his routine. He is having tatrums and being disrespectful all over the place! Our whole family melted down last night and had it out!!!! Today, we are all a little bruised and battered emotionally but the tension is gone. Tonight we will sit and talk quietly about what happened and work harder to not let that happen again. The good news is that it hasnt happened in a very long time and with all that had gone on....it was a miracle it was only a shouting match!!
(this is what we all felt like last night)
God is good..he will get us through this as He always does. Good to be back....hope everyone is doing well these days! Spring has sprung in the deep south!! Hope you have some where you are!!
