Kennedy had an audiology appointment yesterday, to have her hearing rescreened. She has a test and fails it then when we retest her she passes. So this one she of course failed. She has a slight hearing loss in her right ear. There is fluid behind her eardrum so it's not moving at all. They are pretty sure its only temporary. So now we have her retested in a month. If there is still fluid, they will most likely put tubes in her ears. Lots of fun, huh?
On the other hand, my lab tests all came out perfect. They should have, I'm pregnant, not sick. And they put me on a new anxiety drug called Buspar. One of the side effects is that it might "sedate" me too much at first. At least it will help me sleep.
Mom is doing about the same. She has been a little more alert in the last couple of days. And she hasn't been having any panic attacks. She doesn't however, recognize most people anymore. She keeps calling Matt "Blake", which is her brother. The other day though she did tell Matt that "he looks just like Matt." I guess that's a good thing for him to look like, right? I talk to her a couple of days a week, whenever she's awake when I call. I don't think she knows who I am though. That's hard to think about and try to understand, so I just don't anymore. I don't know what's worse, only talking to her every so often and knowing that she doesn't know who I am, or having to see it everyday like my brother and sister do. The dying process sucks.
