It is with much pleasure that I bid 2011 ADIEU, Good riddance, don't let the door hitcha in the butt on the way out, get the heck out of Dodge, GOODBYE!!!
Honestly, we do have a sense of humor about it all but I thought it would be fun to recap the crap of this year (and some of the good too):
JANUARY: Colby has shoulder surgery, rendering his right arm completely useless for 8 weeks (aka I became his right arm); Emily has the worst swallow study in her life.
FEBRUARY: Emily sees a neurologist and a pulmonologist.
MARCH: My parents and sister visit to celebrate my mom's birthday. Fun is had by all!
APRIL: Emily sees an allergist and has an extremely positive celiac blood test
MAY: Emily sees a gastroenterologist, has an endoscopy and severe celiac disease is diagnosed. Ally has an extremely positive celiac blood test.
JUNE: We go to Disneyland! Fun is had by all!
JULY: We have an epic camping trip in record heat. Kids are nearly killed by rattlesnakes and the dog nearly dies from heat exhaustion. Colby has a swallow study because he nearly choked to death at work. Ally sees a gastroenterologist and has an endoscopy to confirm severe celiac. Emily fails to respond to a gluten free diet.
AUGUST: School starts and we have a 1st grader and a pre-K'r! Emily begins steroids and Colby has an endoscopy.
SEPTEMBER: Birthday season begins! Ally turns 6 and I turn 30-something. My parents visit, Colby and my dad take a flying lesson. Emily has her first positive AE test result.
OCTOBER: Birthday season continues! Emily turns 5 and Colby turns 30-something. We celebrate 11 years of wedded bliss. Colby goes hunting and returns empty-handed. Emily has her second positive AE test result.
NOVEMBER: Emily has an endoscopy and colonoscopy. A bunch of stuff is found, nothing is diagnosed.
DECEMBER: Emily gets referred to a doctor in Boston. Ally, Emily, Colby and myself are DONE with 2011! Hasta la vista baby! WELCOME 2012!!
