It is tearing me apart, to not just be there.................
This is the Schlachter's Family friend Tami, updating for the family. God is amazing, his acts are amazing beyond what we can begin to comprehend on this earth. Sarah Kate Schlachter came into this world yesterday, healthy and beautiful. As she came into this world with so much joy. She got to meet her sisters.As with the joy came an unimaginable pain.....................Special angels were sent from Heaven to guide her sister Maire to our Father, the Lord Jesus. Sweet Marie passed away in her sleep this morning. She met her sister last night and was at home in bed with her favorite person, her daddy. She went peacefully. We ask for prayers, for strength, for guidance. Please pray for this sweet family, they have been such an inspiration to everyone they know. There faith is amazing!I or Shan will update with further information. I really am at a loss of words right now. Sweet Marie has made her Jouney Home, We love you Marie!

Nerves at ease
Paige is doing so much better the last 2 days, We drive up and drop off! She was hesitant yesterday and today she reached up gave me hugs and kisses, said BYE MOM and skipped off!
Soo grown up! Yesterday only 1 time she went in with a "headache" the nurse told her, I hon, your mom said not to give you motrin, but you can sure lay down for a bit. Paige said, I don't wonna lay day, what do you wonna do the nurse replied, Paige---I wonna go back to class!
YAY! The nurse said she didn't see her again all day! I have not heard from them today so far either! I think she is starting to ease into the big change! AHHH.............Feels good!
Her glasses are in, hoping to swing by to pick them up and she can wear them tomorrow!
On another subject, I am reading the BEST love story!!!! Nora roberts---The MacKade Brothers...
Next week I start the Twilight series**********I cannot wait!!

Kindergarten
Miss Paige was soo excited for her first day of school. She played on the playground with all of her friends while we waited for the bell to ring. She toar around in her new shoes. The bell rang, they lined up. I followed her in and gave her hugs and kisses and was on my way.
930A she was in the office with a headache. Just for a short time though, she enjoyed the day, well I had to pull her out at noon for her eye appt.
We picke dout her frmaes and of course the cutter was broke, so they had to be sent off and will take the rest of the week to get them back.
Day 2 Kindergarten, she awoke early 630A, excited to go, and of course we had to take a packed lunch. She saw a few of the other kids yeterday, so I told her she can take a packed lunch 2 times a week, but not everyday, after all, who has time to pack a lunch everyday!
We walked on to the playground, and.................all the excitement, must have stayed in the car...
She was full of anxiety and would not let go of my hand, we had her group of friends, following us all around and wanted soo much to play with her, but she had nothing to do with it.
The bell rang, she grabbed her backpack and lined up and wanted me to go in with her, I told her I had to stay outside and gave her hugs and kisses, told her she was just fine and watched her walk in............All I really wanted to do was grab onto her, hold her tight and take her for some ice cream! Oh if life were that easy!
Got a call from the school again at about 930a, back in the office with a headache..... I think alot of it is nerves, but I guess we will find that out when her glasses get here. There for a whole day today and then Huskie Club (after school program) until I pick her up at 6P. Poor thing has long days ahead of her!
I did get picks, just not a chance to post yet. Will soon though!

Thanking the Good Lord!
The CT came back completely normal! YES! YES! YES!~
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
I was talking to some other parents last night, they did not know about Landon. So I shared his story, and he asked on a scale of 1-10 how do you think you are doing..... Well unless you have been here before, I guess you don't know 10 is impossilbe. My answer was a 5 or 6.
At least this week I am and I think that is pretty darn good!
I am also in contact with Hospice to get Paige in Therapy... May not be with hospice since there are other issues with divorce going on, but help is help and I think she would benefit. At the time of Landon's illness/passing she was only 4 and they say they are too small for art therapy/therapy in general....... She is 5 so now she is ready!

Glasses it is....
Can you hear me screaming?
She is excited to get them, however that might pass after week of wearing them.
Were going with, glasses are awesome and everyone who has them are major Hotties!
So hopefully this will help with the headaches and dizziness. She is cross eyed! Can you beleive
that, it runs in the family and can I just say.........NOT MY SIDE OF THE FAMILY!!!
Whew, feel better!
She is farsided and this could be why, I am brining home OTHER kids drawings at night. She probably is having a hard time writing, coloring because of the problem and also dizziness. I hadn't had her eyes checked before, because the headahce were very intermitent and would come and go, I figured if it was eye site, it would not go away. But so much for that concept.
Still don't have the CT back.............Praying all is well. Praying, Praying and praying more.

For results.
Today Paige goes to the eye doctor, will be interesting to see if she needs glasses, and if she does, please pray for my patience with trying to keep them on her!!! Oh I can already here it.
I hope she does not need them!
She is gearing up for the big day on Monday. Tonight is open house, that is if we make it back to town before they are done. Tomorrow morning she has her screening to see what she knows. I think there is more going on, but I cannot remember.....SO many things, I am horrible at writing these things down. I do write them down, but I foget where I write them.

CT
Paige's headaches have conitnued and she is having what she calls "dizzie" spells. They last only a few minutes. She is also frightened to go to bed. And she tosses, almost thrashes around in her sleep. She tells me she is having nightmares about fire. They had fire week at her daycare about 3 weeks ago and then to top it off, they had a fire drill. Which obviously sent her way over the edge and scare the you know what out of her. I have been doing my best to try and comfort her, reassure her that she will be just fine. Last night she actually slept in her bed all night. She was still scared to go to sleep, but stayed there all night, which is the first in close to a week. She does not want to go to daycare. But yesterday I was able to bribe her and get her in the door with little hesitation.
The doctor ordered a CT of her brain and sinus's. She still after being on Zyrtec has swollen/pale sinus's. So they want to rule out of course, tumors of the brain and structural problems with her sinus's. I do not have the results as of right now, but I just know in my heart they will come back just fine. They have to!
I really think that maybe this is stemming from increased anxiety. I mean after all in the last year, she has lost her little brother, parents are seperated, and now she is starting Kindergarten. Her headaches used to last a while and she would need to sleep and these are a bit different. She is really just taking a few minutes to recoop and better. And with the way she has slept lately, really who knows! Pray for perfect results on the CT's! I will update when I hear anything. Really other than the few "spells" a day, and night time scaryness, she is her same old rocker self!

Fun Weekend
We had a really good weekend. Saturday the parade, Paige ahd a great time, and I forgot to take a candy bag. There were older kids all around us and they made sure they took care of Paige and gave alot of there candy to her as well and gave us a bag! It was great! And the most interesting thing in the parade for her, was the Cheerleaders! She wants to be a cheerleader for the Denver Broncos!!
Today I went school shopping, got all the things she will need. She has this little purple backpack and I told her this morning she could us it, her lip turned down, her arms crossed and the wine came out! She wanted a Jonas Brother's backpack, I told her I didn't know if they had any and she said yes they do, at Wallgreens! HA! Well. I did find one at Target and it was 50%, couldn't pass that up right! So she is a very happy little girl!
She did have a headache on Saturday, she told me her head hurt, I gave IB, then she said she felt dizzy (acted fine) then her head hurt worse, I also put the Wild Flower herbal oil on her forehead and under her nose. She laid on the couch for about an hour, didn't cry or complain about it. She got up after the hour and was 100% again!! I really think the Wild Flower helped alot! She slept good last night, and didn't get up till 745A. I think she slept good anyways, I know I did!
Today................no head ache, no irritability! I hope this spree of headaches is gone for a while again!

It's Friday!!
Yay, it seems like a long week.
Paige had another migraine/headache today, that makes 1 everyday except 1, and that day she played at a friends house and we gave her IB just to avoid one. Took her back to the doc and her sinus's are still really swollen. But said her tonsils look good and he does not think she has adnoid problems, just allergies and suggested to give a higher dose on the Zyrtec. At least my mind is at ease for the time being anyways!
Ready for the weekend, going to the Ault Days parade and then just hang out and get some things done and enjoy our time!

Relief..................Please
Paige needs relief from allergy/sinus swelling and headaches.
She was headache free for 2 months and now they are back full force. Started her on
Nasonex, well a spirited child and steroid use, not quite the mix you want!LOL
I took her off after 4 days, she had constant headaches and I read all the reviews again.
The stuff is supposed to work wonders. But the reported side effects are NOT anything I want to take a chance at Paige having. So I stopped. She tells me her head hurts when she looks down, so I know that the sinus's hurt, I am starting Zyrtec tomorrow along with White Flower, I will put some under her nose. I also bought a Vapor Plus and will run that for a few hours in her room at night. It has Eucalyptus, menthol and comphor vapors, that will hopefully help with the stuffines, in return help the poor girl to get some sleep!
The headaches, luckily are short lived and she is well on her way out the back door as soon as they ease!
AND can I just say---------------Kindergarten*********OMG already!
