Dr. Appointment Yesterday

I finally had my doctor appointment yesterday. Here is a link to the Dr's web site and information about him. I'm sharing it because he has some very good information on there about wellness and healing.

I think in general the appointment went well and I do like his approach to health and healing. We are going to start out by doing some craniosacral therapy for three weeks starting July 3rd. If you aren't familiar with that, he explains it on his web site. I have talked to several people over the last month about this and have heard excellent feed back. So, I'm looking forward to trying a more gentle, non-supplement form of treatment to start with. We will eventually add more of the supplement treatment in later, but I think we want to see what this approach brings first.

I had a very eventful last week, better than I've had in over a year. I was able to accomplish getting Whitney her graduation dress with the help of my friend Michelle. She and I went to Macy's and went speed shopping grabbing about 8 dresses off the racks to bring home for Whitney to try on. I think we spent maybe 20 minutes in the store total and it was just perfect. Then we took Whitney back to the shoe store to get some shoes to go with it. It was such a joy to be there doing these simple things with my family. Last friday was Whitney's graduation and even though it was hot and I felt like passing out...lol...I was able to go and cheer her on. Saturday was Spencer's birthday party at a bowling alley with him and little buddies...again...I can't even begin to verbalize how full of joy I was to be there watching him enjoy his big #5 birthday. Since I was on a roll, I decided to push the envelope a little further and we drove to Mt. Vernon to watch Whitney play in her last game of a weekend-long tournament. It was the first game I watched her play in over a year. I could feel my body melting down, but to see her play and how much she has improved was incredible. I could see her excitement when we walked in and that was enough for me to make it through. God was very good and merciful for those three days.

Now I'm recovering again and had to surrender to my body needing extra down time. I really don't mind it because I feel like I accomplished so much. It feels good to rest and regroup. I feel like there is much going on in my heart, but am waiting for the words to flow again so that I can share it all. I hope to have my deeper thoughts up here in the near future :-). Thank you to everyone for all of your love and support to our family. I can never thank everyone enough for helping us keep our family up and running. We are incredibly grateful.
Love and blessings, Tanya
