I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what is making Jessie so unhappy. She doesn't act sick. She says she isn't sick. For lunch Jon, Jess and I met Chris and Sean at the Chinese restaurant and she was VERY loud and toward the end of our meal a family came in with a toddler and that threw her over the edge. By the time we got home she was yelling and screaming. We gave her Ativan to try to calm her down (which I rarely do) but that took over 1 hour to work. I finally took her upstairs and made her lay down and take a nap, which she did.
I also took away her iPad. She's been hollering for it all evening, but I haven't caved in. Tonight she's coloring. Earlier she got out Leggo blocks and built a tower, which she never does. Actually the family room is a wreck with all her stuff out. However, at this moment, she is quiet, so I don't care what it looks like. Now she's fixated on whether or not it will storm tonight.
This is so discouraging. We had gotten her to eat in a restaurant and be fairly quiet and good. That is not happening lately. I don't know if it is because of my surgery and the arm immobilizer I wear, or what? On September 10 she goes in for a throat scope test. I'm very concerned with this, as she won't get on a hospital bed. I really don't know what they will do. She's not very compliant with and IV, either.
