What a week

Hello friends,
In the past few days ,we had experienced 'technical difficulties". It took few days to figure out why Sammy was in such pain,when I realized that we had switched to different feeding formula with fiber to help regulate his tummy. Today was a first day when Sammy is comfortable again on his old feeding formula ,it was a Huge relieve to see him at peace again. Its very difficult to figure out what bothers him ,he can't say it or show it anymore-times its frustrating and I will turn to my usual friend -intuition.
We had a home visit from Hospice Care. At this point our Doctors had referred Sammy and Family for help with in home care.My only consern is to be able to keep Sammy at home in the same time providing best possible care-outside fasility is out of the question. We are looking forward to meet our care nurse that will be visiting us regularly to insure Sammy is comfortable and pain free.
Just happens that this week is the week that we had 3 broken appliances in the same time!
Our TV,Oven and bar cooler! Wow what a week! I guess there was a reason that we have a full stove too ,not just a cook top-Now I can say to my husband -'I told you ,so! You can't run household with one oven!'
Thanks Giving is a very meaningful Holiday for us .We Always Think and Thank this wonderful Country for the opportunity to find better life here,but association with a beginning of Sammy's illness at this time last year lives a 'bad taste in my mouth' .G-d knows we have allot to be Thankful for ,but why do I have a feeling ,that turkey will not be my favorite dish anymore?

We Hope That your Thanks Giving Holiday -bring family together ones again and bring only positive feeling for you and your families . Stay healthy,happy,thankful and reach out to others in need.
XOXO Sammy and Family
