Getting bored

I'm getting a little sick of this. Now that I'm counting down the weeks, I'm getting antsy!! I have to admit, it's been nice having some me time. I don't interrupted while watching a movie or being on the computer. I can go for a walk and not worry about anyone else but me, which is weird sometimes. However, I miss my family! It's been about a month that I've been gone now. In a way it has gone by quick, but I feel a little out of it. Life moves very slow for me right now and the days blur together. I have to ask people constantly what day it is. I don't know how Lily can just lay there all day long, but she is such a champ! I'm so proud of her and how tough she is being. I know that she is going to be such an awesome girl! I play with her and give her millions of kisses a day.
They have an ex-ray scheduled for next Monday to see if everything is healed up. They say that it's possible to take her out of traction at 5 weeks. I'm not holding my breath, but that would be fantastic. That doesn't mean going home quite yet, but at least she would be out of traction. Anyway, I have gained a lot of perspective here. Not to sweat the small stuff so much because there are parents going through some pretty rough stuff here. So, although your kids may have a rash or cold and you complain and complain about it, no more feeling sorry for yourself! Your child could have to eat through a tube or have a rare growth on their face. I keep thinking that if I had a list of things to go wrong with my child, I would pick bladder exstrophy as one. It's fixable and she can live a perfectly normal life, with just a couple surgeries to claim. No biggie right!!
