We have been through Thanksgiving and, as of tomorrow, two birthdays, mine and Dana&#8217;s.  On T-Day Sandy joined us and we went to Kevin and Laura&#8217;s for a wonderful dinner and social.  It was good to get the kids out of the house and back into interacting, if ever so little.<\/p>\n<p>All the food was great and the Pino was excellent.  We all wished Chloe could join us at the table, but that damn swallow still isn&#8217;t cooperating.  Very soon we will be trying a new procedure to try and relax the esophagus and get something happening.  It&#8217;s the next step, however, the doctors are trying to figure out which egg goes first.<\/p>\n<p>It was unusual to have the kids home for a whole week.  Colin is guitar boy again with a new electric guitar and small amp.  We are keeping it small for a reason&#8230;  He really is doing well on it for not having formal instructions.  Now we just need to get Chloe singing with him.  Get her to Work It.<\/p>\n<p>My birthday was very nice.  Dana and I were able to get out for a dinner and some time together for a change.  Doesn&#8217;t happen often for sure.  Tomorrow (actually today now) is her birthday and we will have it at the house.  Of course, now we hear that our overnight nurse had some terrible news about her own mother on the east coast.  She has to fly there tomorrow and will be gone for a week or more.  That means Dana will be pulling extra duty, unless she lets me stand in for her.  <\/p>\n<p>Things are rolling along at a snails&#8217; pace but I do believe they are still going forward.  Chloe&#8217;s walking is getting better and she is trying more and more things on her own.  The sleep apnea is a pain in the butt for her but she is trying hard to do what is necessary.  She&#8217;s a very smart girl, so she doesn&#8217;t need us telling her why she needs to do something.  She does need our encouragement, leadership and nudging sometimes though.<\/p>\n<p>We will be going out for a tree on Saturday.  It seems late to me but, at least, we are going out as a family.  That will be very nice.<\/p>\n<p>Be well,<br \/>\nRon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was pointed out that it&#8217;s been a while since the last post.
