Before I head to Bed new things

First) Sierra walked without her walker today.  She still has them just incase she is over doing it.  Her arm is even doing better.  I know it frustrate her when she tries to hold things but nothing is stopping this kid.

Second) I love Twittering, it is so much fun.  I actually have stars that are following me is that just amazing .  One is Sierra's very very favorite Miley from Hannah Montana.  I read all the up dates and laugh.  These people are a total riot.  So if you have never Twittered get with it, it will make you smile and laugh and it takes only a few seconds to post something.

Third) I received a wonderful phone call today.  My Infusions are back on.  So the 12th is a go day for me.  I have to be there at 8:30 in the morning for 8 wonderful hours hook to a IV but all I can say is YES FINALLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Forth and final)  Love ya all

Miss Sierra, friends and her puppy

I got this and wanted all my family and friends to see how remarkable Sierra is.  She went to texas and the doctor is hopeful the swelling will go down and he increased her new medicine.

So I believe in this man, this doctor that he would never in a million years put Sierra in harms way.

As you see her rehab is working, she still gets tired and has to still use her wheel chair but she is very very determined to walk again and get home to her family and her puppy.  I am also very proud of my daughter for giving Sierra the faith to believe she can do anything and not to let anything or anyone tell her different.  So here is my little doll doing the most remarkable thing being a little girl =)

I am now a twitter

I have my very own TWITTER.  It is actually fun and you can follow tons of interesting people.

I have found a lot of people TWITTER.  So I ask you do you TWITTER?

Another stumbling block

Today I received a phone call from my Doctor about my infusions.  I spent the day feeling totally sorry for myself and having a big huge PITY ME party.  Then I got the pictures of Sierra during her hospital stay and realize this kid is amazing she has battled so much in her young life and lets nothing get her down,  She just keeps coming back like the ever ready bunny fully charged and ready to take the world on.  And here I was crying like a baby because my infusion got canceled again and I felt at ropes end.  But like I said her picture woke me up and made me realize if I could be 1/4 as strong as she is this is just another stumbling block and I can get by it.

All I was told was I needed to see the Doctor first and he would discuss with me what was going on.  I know he is ordering new blood work and his nurse gave me a hint he found something off in my last set that he had missed.  So he canceled the infusion for the 12th till I see him.  So for now the pity party is over and I am going to take a much needed lesson from a little girl that can conquer the world and make people smile just by seeing her smile.

Love and hugs, Dawn

Pictures of Sierra and more

Today I got some pictures of Miss Sierra while she was in the hospital for her brain surgeries and also a picture of her holding her new adorable Boston Terrier which was a wonderful gift.  The first picture is of her and her new puppy.  The other three are of her stay at Cook's Children Hospital in Texas during her brain surgeries.   The one where she is smiling and looking a little loopy is because she is.  The others are after the surgeries and the machines she was connected too.  Do you not just love her new white hat, thank goodness they did not completely shave her head or we would still be hearing about it.  

The reason I am posting the pictures is because I want family and friends to see how remarkable she is.  

Writing Again

I am writing again.  For a long time I had completely stopped, my real life was making me so unhappy that I turned to my game and nothing else.  But the other night I found I could not sleep because the pain was unbearable and I flat refused to take yet another pain medicine.  I found myself pulling up my notes, and my first draft of my writing and found myself working on the second draft with the needed corrections.  Next thing I knew it was 7 am in the morning and I had worked out almost 2 chapters and I had totally forgotten about the pain.  It felt good.  So maybe by the end of this year I will actually finally have a book on the shelves in many book stores.

I have been approached about writing a romance novel but not sure yet.  I love writing for children.  When Sierra was younger and she would be sick I would sit and rock her and make up stories for her to help her forget she was sick or hurting.  The one I am working on now is for her.  I started wanting the main child in the story to be a little boy named Michael,but got talked into making the child a little girl and I changed the entire part and the child went from being Michael to Khloe.
