Some exciting, okay, and confusing news

So the exciting news. I'm so excited and happy!!! Madisynn had her Dr. appointment on Valentines day for a weight check. She has been on polycose which is a calorie powder for a few months now. When the doc prescribed it to her I wasn't doing so well. I was very stressed, depressed, and anxious. I was a wreck when we went in. I couldn't stop crying. When the doc came in he asked me how we were doing and I just whimpered trying to be positive oh okay I guess. He asked what was wrong, and I told him I was worried that she hadn't gained any weight, and that he would start doing all sorts of tests on her that I wasn't looking forward to again. At that appointment she weighed 19.6 lbs. Again I couldn't stop crying. I asked if depression, stress, etc. could effect her weight gain. He said absolutley, why are you depressed? I said oh yeah, and told him everything while I bawled. The funny thing is I had talked to a therapist back in Cali when everything had happened with matt's back, madisynn not eating, my dad's death... it goes on and on. Anyways the terapist said you aren't crazy you just have a lot on your plate for one person. So I asked you're not going to medicate me??? He said just Control your thoughts and actions and that should help. It did for awhile, and then we moved. Anyways this doc said I want you medicated like tomarrow. It sounds like you still have some post pardom going on that noone recognized. He said get yourself fixed, and it should help your daughter. I did what he asked and was medicated the following week. It's the best thing I ever did. I feel so much better, and I can control my emotions so much better! So a month after that appointment we went in. I had a better attitude that whole month. Madisynn gained 2 oz. which put her from 19.6 to 19.8. That's great, but it wasn't good enough for the doc. He said I'm not going to poke and prod I'm going to give her another chance to try and gain. He told me that I looked much better, and so the outcome with Maddie should be better. So I went home feeling great!!! Well this whole month I have fought madisynn to eat. She was barely eating anything. I would spend close to an hr. and a half trying to get her to eat. It was exhausting, I dread mealtime at our house. Anyways I think I handled it well. Yes I got upset, but I didn't start screaming and yelling at her like before. Well we went in on Valentines day only to find out that no one was there. They had all gotten snowed in. I was kind of dissappointed. Not to worry though one of the nurses from another dr.s office came out and saw me and asked if my appt. was important. I said yes, and told her. She said that she could weigh and measure her for me just to ease my mind if I wanted. I was all for it, and so grateful! So we followed her got madisynn undressed to her diaper and took her out and put her on the scale table. They measured her first. She is 33.5 inches tall. Then they did her weight. The exciting part: She weighs 21 lbs. and 2 oz!!! I was so relieved, I can't even tell you how relieved. I was just hoping that it would be acceptable to the doc. Well they called the next evening to let me know. He said not to bring her in until the next month just to see, and to keep her on the polycose for the next 3 months. I was thrilled!!! For Madisynn's age with her weight and height it puts her in the 25th percentile. That's way better than being in 3rd percentile or not even hitting the chart.
Now for the okay news. It's good, but not the greatest. So the flood problem is all fixed. They had to tear up some drywall to get the wood beam underneath to dry. The freezer outlet in the garage is working again, so we don't have to run an extension cord from the freezer outside to the outlet inside! Our insurance covers up to a $1000 with no deductible. The final bill came to $1086.61. We payed to the All Pro Cleaning company a $150 deposit fee when they first came out to look it over. We still have to get the carpets cleaned, tack it down, and fix the area with the drywall. It's going to cost about $150 for them to come back out and clean and tack the carpet. I think we will just have them clean the carpet, and we'll ask my brother in law if he could help us tack it down, and help with the drywall. So McKenzie's No No was an expensive No No. I'm just grateful that we didn't have to pay the full amount!
Now for the confusing news. My Mom had been in the hospital for 15 days. They had done a lung scope, to see what kind of Namonia she had. Well it turns out she doesn't have Namonia. Is that confusing or what. The docs don't know what she has. They are still waiting for the analysis to come back. Good news though she was released from the hospital on the 13th with oxygen. She will go back to the hospital when they find out what is wrong with her. She was just grateful to be out of the hospital to go back to her sister's house to recuperate. I talked to her yesterday to see how she was doing. She sounded great. I know she'll be okay. I just miss her so!!!
