Guest guest Posted December 26, 1999 Report Share Posted December 26, 1999 Hi guys! I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and things are going well for you and your kids. I just got on my email after being gone for about 8 days. I am so sorry to hear that some of you are in the hospital-a place that is never fun, but especially not during the holidays. na and Berkeley, will include you in his prayers every night! Amy, I'm sorry tohear about your fire, but I'm glad you're back and it sounds like things are doing better for you. You seem to have a great spirit and attitude! , you had mentioned that someone asked you if you smoked to cause the CHARGE? With being adopted, it is so interesting and it ticks me off cause people always say, " Did the birthmom do drugs? " Then when I tell them no, they ask if it was cause of her age (she was only 14) and I say I don't know anyone else who is a teen mom of a CHARGEr and they can hardly believe it. I " m telling you, I'm going to write that book of dumb things people say. BTW, Casey, I'd love to hear how that guy said hypnosis can cure CHARGE-that's a new one! HAHAHA We have had a great success w/sign language. has seemed to not even acknowledge our signing to him, and suddenly, he has started to sign I love you and sleepy! He can almost get his fingers perfect for I love you, but not quite, but who cares?! To us, it's perfect. I was so excited-I went to church today and the librarian told me that they were going to order the Primary (the kids organization in our church)songs in sign language on a videotape! They are going to start teaching the other kids the songs in sign language so will feel right at home! It is nice to get that support from our church and our neighbors. Thank you all also for all of your support and great ideas. You are wonderful and I know that God loves and is very mindful of you and your children and your needs. Happy New Year! Ruth Mom to CHARGEr 18mos. and wife to PS Jelena-I have an appt. w/Dr. , but not until March!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 27, 1999 Report Share Posted December 27, 1999 Ruth How great about and signing! That's how Logan does things too.... he absorbs things we're teaching him but doesn't let on- then suddenly, it all comes out I'm so happy that he is getting support from the church s well. Dr was supposed to put tubes in the first week of December, but we have to wait until Jan 4 th because they forgot to schedule it. grrrr. then we can get back to his hearing tests. He's had negative pressure in one ear and fluid behind the other for quite some time. take care and Happy New Year~ Jelena Salt Lake City UT Wife to Liam, Mom to Matt 16, Logan 7 (bilateral cleft lip and palate, partial ACC and SOD: ONH, partial panhypopit, SI disorder and hearing impaired?), Connor 3 and Duncan 17 months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
