Bad mamma..
My Bethany has been very I'll with some unknown allergy..she gets the most god awful hives and her face ,extremities will swell up...we have been to the ER 3 times .... Because I am not all I should be for the poor kid her boyfriend has had to take her, with me writing a quick. Note to the doc saying ok to treat.... But last night was bad ..and we can't rely treat her assheis scheduled for allergy test tomorro ... When her face swelled I gave her one half a benedryl , and the ER doc gave her Xanax hoping the anti anxiety of it would help....and I called the allergy center today for advice but the doc was not in and the nurse can't talk if the doc isn't in ?? We have a EPI pen and oxygen and don't live far from the hospital, but the kid is actually afraid to sleep..... Poor Dan last night looked at her hives ..it looked like she was mauled by a bear..Dan said holy sh-t..I explained I was taking her to the ER and he got this scared look on his face.. He thought I was leaving him alone... Erika was here for him and he calmed down.... Since he seems a little clearer he is more aware of the dangers of being left alone...( sting that might be rays issue) and ray has been more cognizant than Dan in many ways .... Where as I used to able to run garbage out now I have to explain where, and when I,Ll be back.... And he is insisting on going into more stores with me...m
Hmmmmm could be boredom as well as far as the stores go.. But I am feeling like a pretty crappy mom, here my daughter who is only 16 is dealing with a life threatening condition and I am/ was oblivious... Yes she has my attention now...and hopefully we can figure something out.... I am so split watching Dan and watching her...we have been unable to find a common denominator as of yet, which is obvious or we would have this under control....it is always something, and I am tired of it... Not so much for me but for them...and I do know every issue we have is amplified by all the stress of dans constant condition... He is improving as I have said but as a family we refused to be lured into letting our guard down..well just another day in my wild and crazy life...hahah
