Here we are again in the same familiar place with me hijacking April’s blog to give an update on what has happened since I left everyone last night. So yesterday April was moved up to what they call a post surgical diet 2 which includes all liquids, some raw fruits, raw veggies, crackers, pudding, and […]

April is sleeping and my mind is racing. Now that April is well, as in she is alive and is in no current danger, what is next. Next, obviously is healing. The easy part will be her healing from her incisions, the disecting through muscle, the rods and screws being placed in her back, the […]

This is Neil again. The last time I wrote I left off at April and I waiting for her to get an MRI. Well a lot has happened since then, but I am not going to write about all of that because I only have one thing on my mind. Currently I am writing this […]

Hello all, This is Neil, April’s husband. April wanted me to give an update on her surgery and post-op status. Bare with my writing, I am not sure I will be as stylistic as April. So with that being said, I will give you an update and in accordance with April’s wishes, NO SUGAR COATING! […]

I have attempted to write this post for 4 days now. This will be my last post before the infamous surgery. I can’t say I am too thrilled about it. I thought my anxiety was bad last week. However, this week, it has gone to a whole new level. After having a very public panic attack in the […]

A picture tells a story just as well as, if not better than, a lot of written words. My house is surrounded with pictures of our family, the kids, and Neil and me. I use our photos as artwork on the walls maybe more than I should. However, walking by them each day makes me smile. […]

There is so much to write about this week that I am breaking it up into two parts. So please bare with me. I have too many pictures to shove into one post! Friday before my shows, the kids and I went with friends to pick fruit. Staying busy the day before a show calms my […]

2 weeks have passed and I put writing on the back burner. It has been so crazy busy that I haven’t felt the urge to write. I am not sure if that is good or bad. I don’t want this to ever feel like a chore and so I write when I really feel the need […]

I am a little behind writing this post. It was migraine central over here this week and I wasn’t able to get much done; plus staring at a computer screen typing wasn’t going to help either. Migraines definitely are connected to my back issue and for the most part, I can handle it. However, this […]
