It's been about a week I believe since my last blog. That was one LONG week. It was the end of the month end of the quarter where I work and we were crazy busy all week and then all the sudden on Friday we were dead and it took forever for the end of the day to arrive. On top of that it turns out I have to have my galbladder removed because it's no longer functioning the way it should so I continue to battle the pain when it comes and goes. Tim is still looking for permanent work after leaving Israel's; he's found lots of side jobs here and there. We've found out recently that he has been approved to recieve unemployment benefits now it would just be nice to know when the deposits are going to take place. It's been nice to have him home.
The topic of my last blog has been on my mind a lot and I still don't really know what I think. Sometimes I think that he does really have a lot of the sypmoms that are associated with Asperger's Syndrome, but at the same time I know that sometimes those things can just be things that all children do. I guess what it comes down to is I'm not a doctor so I can't make the final say on his "diagnosis" so he's scheduled to see a new pediatrician toward the end of the month. At that appointment I'm going to bring up the concerns from me and my family and just go from there I guess. Of course nothing that the doctor says will change the way I love my son and I will still do everything I can to give him all the advantages that are available to him. I also hope that others in our lives will not label him as "different" if it turns out there is a diagnosis on what's been going on with him.
On another note, it's Fall now and that's my favorite time of the year. I love the cooler weather and being able to layer my clothing. I love taking the dog out at night and walking through the leaves that have fallen. I can't wait to schedule our first family trip to a pumpkin patch or orchard!
