We came home and put out the new furniture, I began to straighten the kitchen when Jon got a call that his jeep was ready, so back in the van and out to Richmond. Since it was dinner time I called Joyce and John to see if they were in town (they were) and they met us at Papou's for dinner. We finally got home to stay at 7:30 p.m.
Jessie had a good morning at Art and made a super painting of fireworks. I'll take a picture and post it tomorrow. The morning was the last time she was happy. It went down hill from there.
She didn't want to go to the doctor's office and every time someone mentioned surgery she went spastic. (I really can't blame her.) Shopping with her at the At Home store was awful. She had worked herself up to a no-return behavior. I ended up by giving her a double dose (which I can do) of her anxiety medicine. It didn't take effect until 3 hours later !!!!!! By then we were in the van on the way to Richmond and she went to sleep - for about 15 minutes. Right now she's still aggitated and hollering. I can't wait until she goes to bed and sleep, except I know she's just recharging for tomorrow!
thank goodness the doctor agrees Jess should stay overnight when she has the surgery.
