Shelby's JDMS Journal of Events
March 2000 to present
Week 23 - Ending August 5
Thursday 08/3/00 : We saw Dr. Jung on Monday. He didn't visit with us very long and the appointment was delayed (this is pretty normal so we've learned to expect and accept it). He said that her last few lab tests have looked really good, so there is no need to draw blood work. He will do it next time.
We are to continue with the Diflucan oral suspension for her mouth, as well as all her other meds. No changes this time. Shelby's rash is a little more aggravated again, due to the sunlight she's exposed to even through the car windows.
Shelby has enjoyed her summer but can't wait for school to start. She likes to be busy and to have "jobs" do to, like homework for instance. School starts the 23rd. They've installed a new air conditioning system there, so there won't be any early dismissals for heat like there has been in the past. There is a bus stop two houses down the street from us, so this is convenient for mom!
Shelby's arm and hand strength seems to be getting closer to normal. Her hamstring flexibility is also getting much better. The stretching seems to be relaxing for her, and it's nice bonding time for the both of us at night especially.
Next weekend we are going to Sioux Falls for a concert, Grandma & Grandpa Baatz will babysit that night. The following day we will celebrate by 30th (I almost typed 20th, ha!) birthday. Well actually the celebration isn't until Saturday, and it's not just for my birthday either. Mom has invited a group of our childhood friends and cousins. I am looking forward to seeing them all again, of course it's been way too long. The kids are looking forward to seeing their grandparents and cousins again.
