Deja Vu

Today as I was walking through the Saint Luke's Hospital, with Zach's pillow and blanket in hand, reassuring Zach that everything would be okay, I looked up at Dan and said, "does this feel like a bad case of Deja Vu? Or what?" Dan agreed.

Zach had a scheduled E.E.G. this morning. He has had some "tremors" in his hands that has caused me some concern, the developmental pediatrician said that tremors are fairly normal in children with autism, but he wanted to rule out everything else first. They asked that we keep Zach up late the night before, and get him up early this morning because the E.E.G. gives its best results if the patient is drowsy during the test.

Last night we played baseball in the back yard until 10:00pm. The kids thought it was the greatest night ever since they are usually always in bed before sun down. They also thought it was funny to see mom hitting a baseball in the dark. (I wasn't very good!)

Zach was a great sport during the whole process. He thought the goop in his hair was gross, but it washed off easily. Erin, my sister-in-law, was kind enough to watch the other kids so Dan and I could focus all of our attention on Zach. We won't know any of the results for a few days, but I will update you all when I know. I am not too worried, but the horrible thought of a brain tumor always goes through a mother's mind as her child is hooked up to wires. :)

I threw in a few pictures of the kids at swimming lessons. They started Monday and will go through next week. They are swimming like little fish! I am so impressed. We signed them up for private lessons, and it was well worth the extra money! They have improved so much in just a matter of days.

Thanks for your prayers. Zach did awesome!
