Unlocking Benjamin
Our family's journey through unexpected circumstances

quiet weekend

Dave and I enjoyed our time, though we missed the kids.  It’s funny how you can really enjoy time away and miss them at the same time.

Nate and Megan are home again, both very tired and somewhat sore from constant sledding.  Both kids competed in a talent show while they were there-Megan signed a song called Silly Pizza-very challenging, and Nate rapped White and Nerdy.  Over all, they had a great time. 

Dave and Nate both were invited to Super Bowl parties today, so off they went. Megs, Ben and I just hung around here at home and took it easy.

Ben still has a very round face, though he does not have the characteristic swelling under the jaw of mumps.  He has been rather more crabby than usual, and complaining that his ear hurts-he has a mild ear infection as well.  Seizures are still hanging out in the normal range, so I think we will do another drop in Lorazepam tomorrow and see how things go. We are down to 1 ML from 5. Sounds like crazy slow, but it’s been the way things had to go to get him off. God willing, we’ll be done in 5 more weeks!

I am feeling better and better, but have not yet recovered from mono. Mostly I am really irritated about still being sick, and so tired of being tired all the time.  I did manage to get the house all spring cleaned over the weekend which makes me happy, and reduces the amount of housework I’ll have to do during the week. I also got caught up on Ben meals. Now we just need to do some school!
