So I went shopping with two girls from my old work today and it was really fun. I bought some cds and some cool shirts from AE. I love that store. Kailey stayed at home with her daddy! She was such a lovebug when I got home. My friends adore her and I love that. I like that when they come to hang out they play with her and stuff. Makes me feel good that they enjoy Kailey as well as me. Got a new Celine CD today. It is an older one, but since my cd collection got stolen three years ago I have had to rebuild slowly. It is the "All the way, a decade of songs" and I am totally in love with the song "To Love You More" it is so good. I also got a new ABBA CD. It is "The Definitive Collection" That is also great. My mother calle dme from Vegas today. SHe won 200 bucks on a nickle slot. She is feeling pretty good right now. I am so glad I get to go back this year. I can't wait for October. I am going to see Celine for the third time and also MAMMA MIA for the third time. I know I should branch out and see new shows, but I love those two. I can't WAIT!!!!! I have had a pretty shitty past couple of months with The Lodge burning down and It really still saddend me. I worked there for two years and the staff was my second family. I knew everyone. I hate that my job was cut. I mean I understand but it still sucks ass. I found a new job and will start it next monday. It is another housekeeping job at a big hotel in PLacid. It wont be the same but I figure it will be fine. It is only a money source. PLus I can look for something better. And when the lodge reopens in 2007 I get my job there back. I cant wiat for that day. Anyway I am going to bed. I want to cuddle with Jacob and watch Rosanne reruns. Much Love!!!

You scored as Ron Weasley. You often feel like second best and as a result don't have an awful lot of self confidence, but a truer more capable friend would be hard to find.

Kailey starts Day Care tomorrow. I am going back to work full time and we finally got her a spot in the day care we wanted. It is the most exspensive day care in town and it is suppossed to be the best. I am so nervous to drop her off tomorrow. I hope she does well. I took her there last week to play for a couple of hours so she could get used to the place and her teacher. It is really sad to me though that she is now going into day care full time. Reason being~ Jake and I want to buy the house we are renting and it goes on the market in September. We need the money from me working to afford it. I know it will benefit Kailey in the long run to have a nice house and stuff, but it still breaks my heart. I can't imagine her away from me when she has been with me everyday for almost two years.

Sad sad sad.......Wish me luck tomorrow. I will be dropping her off at 8am. Hmmmm..

Back From Vegas.........

Mon, 14 Mar 2005 21:09:19 GMT

So.....I'm baxk from Las Vegas! IT WAS THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE!!!!I went with my parents for a week and had the most awesome time. My parents were the best.
Let me just list to you the shows we went to

~Mama Mia(Mandalay Bay)
It was fantastic! I am in love with ABBA! It was truly the most amusing experince. Just to dance with a crowd of like 2500 people. It was at Mandalay Bay. It was FANTASTIC! I highly recommend seeing it!

~Celine Dion(Ceasers Palace)
Lets start by saying I had 2nd row center seats and She was three feet away from me. I was DYING! During her song "I'm Alive" she winked at me and did a little wave. The stage has a screen behind it that is HUGE!! During the last song they were putting peoples faces on the screen and they put my face up! And she was singing to the screen. IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! Some of the best hours of my life. During one song she came off the stage and was standing right in front of me. I was Dying. One word...UNBELIEVABLE!(Yes I cried)

~Tom Jones(MGM Grand)
There is nothing to say but...Gag Me!

~Tony and Tinas Wedding(The RIO)
Hillarious. I would reccomend it to anyone. It is an interactive dinner show. I dont think I have ever laughed that hard. Totally this Italian wedding.I can't even describe it. So FUNNY!

The rest of the time I was drinking in the Casinos and Gambling. I went to Vegas with $100 and I came home with $65. The last night I was there I one $65 on the penny slots! My Stepdad and I went horseback riding through Red Rock Cannon. That was Fabulous. The Whole trip blew my mind. The strip in Vegas is like no other place on Earth. I am still enchanted with everything I saw and did. It was 7 days of just bliss!!!!!!!!!

So I couldn't stand it anymore so I went to the doctors today instead of tomorrow to confront her about Kaileys Cat scan. When she came into the room she was really snotty with me. So I asked her if we could discuss what had happened and she turned to me and was like"What Happened?" like I was an idiot. So I started to tell her what happened and she was dumbfounded. She had no idea that Kailey was having a reaction to the sedation. She said that on Friday and agian on Tuesday she was just told that the sedation hadn't worked. She said that she thought that Kailey just hadn't fallen asleep and was just playing in the waiting room. So when I told her specificaly what had happened she felt so bad she started crying. Which in all honesty, I was kind of glad. I didn't feel bad for her, but I was glad she felt bad enough to cry over it. So she said that she would be in contact with the radiology department and the anasteisiologist that was suppossed to be monitoring Kailey. She said that she "would have words" with them. She apologized for giving Kailey the Versed when it was in the same family of drugs the first sedative was in. She also apologized for not being there and monitoring Kailey herself. I was greatful for all the apologies, but I was still angry that it happened at all. I suggested to her that the hospitals method of letting the child rage themselves into exhaustion and sleep was unethical and maybe she should suggest to the hospital that it was cruel. She assured me she had no idea and that she would definitly mention that.

The short of it, We are taking Kailey to a pediatric neurologist in Burlington VT. It was our compromise. I didn't want to put Kailey completely out, so we are going to see this doctor to see if the Cat Scan is absolutly necessary. If he thinks it is, then she will go back to VT to have it and she will be monitored by a pediatric anastesiologist. I guess we just take it from here.

*Big sigh*

Hello, I just need to vent out a week long frustrtion. Bare with me...So my daughter(20 months)Kailey has been complaining of eye pain for three months. We have been to see her pediatrition about it numerous times. She sent us to the eye doctors. We went to the eye doctors and he said that Kaileys eyes were fine and that all he could see was that she was a bit more farsighted then normal for her age. He told us to come back in 6 months and if she was still farsighted then she would need glasses. So we went back to Kaileys pediatrition. She said that since it had been three months of eye pain that Kailey needed a CAT scan. She told us that Kailey would need a waking sedative so that she would be still for the scan. She told me that sedatives of any type were risky, but assured me the risk for Kailey would be small. We(my husband Jake and I) decided to go ahead with the scan. We went on Friday of this past week. When we arrived on Friday at 7am they gave Kailey the sedative and told us that it took an hour to kick in. Well after ten minutes Kailey was hysterical. She was very doped up and had lost complete motor function. She couldn't walk or hold her head up, but she was HYSTERICAL. So we became a bit concerned as everyone told us that she was suppossed to become relaxed and fall asleep. We asked the cat scan nurse and she was like "I have never seen this happen" and then just left us. She called Kaileys pediatrition and the doctor said to give Kailey more of the sedative. Well Kailey fell apart. She was HYSTERICAL. After two hours of this(Which was very hard to watch) they told us to go home and we would have to reschedule the scan with a different sedative. When we got home my husband was outraged that no one had checked our daughter out before we left so he called her doctors office. They said that she would probably sleep for awhile and that we should go in and check on her every couple of minutes to make sure she was breathing and to keep her on her stomache and side so she would choke if she was to vomit. We were outraged that they let her go home like this. Anyway, she was fine when she woke up and we were relieved. They rescheduled the scan for yesterday with the sedative Versed. The scan was for noon and they wouldn't let Kailey eat anything at all yesterday(which was horrible). We brought her in at noon and then they gave her the sedative. Well after twenty minutes she was hysterical again, but ten times worse then on Friday. She wouldn't let anyone hold her and she was screaming and crying and fighting us. We couldn't let her walk becasue she physically couldn't. We confronted the same cat scan nurse and she was like "I would like to wait another 15 minutes for the full hour to let it kick in" Jacob and I were outraged so we went to Kaileys pediatricions off(luckily in the same building) and demanded to speak to her doctor. She wasn't ther eit was her day off. The nurse told us there was nothing they could do and to take Kailey home. We were pissed. We went down to get her stuff and the cat scan nurse said that she had just gotten a call from Kaileys doctor and they were going to give her more medacine and then we were to wait it out. Even though more medacine was a bit dangerous they had a anasteisologist who would monitor the situation. So they gave Kailey the medication and she went CRAZY. They put us ina little room with a couch and a tv and a bunch of kids toys. Kailey was throwing all the toys and taking things and hitting herself in the head, she wouldn't let us hold her or comfort her she was trying to kick and hit us. At one point she stopped breathing she was so upset. So I went to the nurse and she said that the pan was to let Kailey rage it out until she fell asleep. She told me Kailey couldn't keep at it forever so when she was done raging and crashed from pure exhaustion they would do the scan. They told us that we might have to wait until 10pm before that happened, but it was worth it to get the scan. At this point I was LIVID. At no point did the nurse check on Kailey or call a doctor. After three hours of this I couldn't take it anymore. I was hysterical at watching my child going through this. I told the nurse to Fuck off and that it was MY child and we were taking her home. We thought it was cruel to do this to a 20 month old that had no perception of what was going on. So they got pissed at us and said fine. At no point did they check her out before we left. She was on a dangerous dose of medacine and no one checked her out. I AM PISSED. We are going to her doctors on Friday to discuss what the next step is, but I really feel like I need to confront her doctor. I felt the whole two days was ridiculous and I felt like her doctor just left us there. She never called us or came down to see us or sent another pediatricion down to check on Kailey. I felt it was irresponsible to give Kailey another sedative when it was in the same family as the first sedative which she had a reaction too, and I feel livid and the cruel method that they were using to get kailey to sleep. the whole thing was uncalled for a stupid. The doctor owes us an apology for not being involved other than ordering the scan.

Do you guys think that I am right on here in having words with her doctor? What should I say? I am pissed and I usually really like her pediatricion. Dont you think the situation was cruel and uncalled for??

Sun, 05 Dec 2004 16:05:14 GMT

I am just done. Done doing things that I know have a negative impact on my life. I can't stand the way I get swept up in things that I know are bad for me. It is like my life flows and then BAM, I do something stupid and then I pay the price for that for like weeks. I am just done. I am a good person, I deserve good things in life, and good people surrounding me.
