CRAZY!!

So Bryan has been sick since the middle of November but no body could figure out what he has had! His uvula has been swollen and his throat has almost constantly been hurting. We went to the Urgent Care twice and they gave us 2 rounds of antibiotics and 2 rounds of steroids. Then we went to the Emergency Room and they gave him another antibiotic and a shot of an anti-inflammatory. He would get better after the medicine then a week later be sick again. This has been going on for almost 3 months. We finally got into the ENT doctor and he has tonsillitis. Now Bryan has to have his tonsils taken out and his uvula has been so swollen for so long that it is perma-stretched so it has to be cut shorter! Isn't that crazy!!! Poor guy!!!

Overwhelmed with emotion

I finally showed some emotion on my parents divorce today. I have been keeping it inside and not letting any one know how I was feeling, not even Bryan. But I finally talked to him about it and cried. I don't know how to handle my conflicting thoughts and feelings. I know its for the best and I keep telling myself that its great, and it is! But I've come to the realization (with some help from Bry) that they are still my parents and I love them both very much. I am just struggling with knowing that my family will never be together and better. I guess I am just so used to them being together that them being apart is shocking. Does that make sense?

President Hinkley

I just found out that our beloved Prophet, President Hinckley, has passed away today. He will definitely be missed. But I know that he is with our Heavenly Father and couldn't be happier!

Let it SNOW!!!

Last week we went up to Flagstaff. It was absolutely beautiful! I am so excited to move up there! There was snow everywhere and we enjoyed seeing Trapper play in it! I am going to freeze my butt off but I think it will be fun!!!

All moved in......

Today Bryan and I spent the day in Peoria moving my mom. She left my dad today. This was a long time coming and I am so proud of her!! She has an awesome apartment in a great part of town, close to shopping and food! What else can a girl ask for!! It's all very surreal. I never thought it would actually happen. I am so okay with it, I've actually been wanting her to leave for years. My dad hasn't been the nicest person to live with, to put it mildly. But I have to admit that it still feels very weird, I'm sure even more to my mom. I wish my mom all the best and I hope that she really takes advantage of this new life!

What a way to start the New Year!

I am sick!!! What is that all about!?!?! I think I have a sinus infection and/or upper respiratory infection! It has knocked me down for three days now. My head is throbbing and I can't stop coughing and blowing my nose! Ugh..... I hate being sick!!!

What a week!!

I must say this has definitely been a strange week. I loved Christmas and I'll post all about that soon but I had some other eventful days. Last Saturday I got a call from my mom telling me that my uncle had died. I knew it was coming since he had been in the hospital for months and moved to hospice not long after he went into the hospital. We didn't think he would last a day without the iv's that he had in him but luckily he lasted another few weeks. He had been sick for years and no one could figure out why but it turns out that he had an organism in his body that only 8 out of 1,000,000 people get. And there was no cure. We had the funeral on Thursday.

And to top the cake.... I got a call from my dad last night and my mom was admitted to the hospital after feeling a tightness on the left side of her chest. Everything is okay but it totally freaked me out! My mom is my best friend and I don't know what I would do without her! Luckily, I don't have to think about that but I had a major scare! I went to the hospital today and stayed until she was released. They are putting her on medication to straighten her out. I just hate seeing my mom sick, it breaks my heart.
