8:30 A.M. Well another week gone, the therapist at school still said Stacey is doing good, they gave her some exercises to do for her legs. Thursday while horse riding we noticed Stacey kept leaning to her right, but after talking to the school we found out that she was having problems with shaking real bad while she tried to walk or other extensive workout on her right side, we are not sure what is going on but we worked more with her this weekend and it seemed to get worse so I am going to make a Doctor's appointment today and try to get her in to find out what is going on, I hope it is nothing, maybe it is just something or another stage she is going threw, but she was really doing good for the longest time so I guess we will see. Stacey has had alot of visitors this week again and she seems to get better with it all the time. Well really not much to say this week it has been a long one tho alot going on I took my grand babies mother Jami to the Doctor's Tuesday and found out her cervix had dropped to a one which means there is to much pressure on it from the babies and she was having contractions they were light so she did not notice, so they but her in the hospital overnight, and started some meds to help stop the contractions, it seems to be helping a little so I may be a grandma sooner than I thought but we are hoping they wait for another four weeks because one is 2'15 ounces and the other is 2'4 ounces so we are hoping they wait a little bit longer, they have but her on total bed rest. so we will see what comes out of that! So to all this week if you can say some extra prayers for Stacey and Jami and for one more Ray Sr they found another infection in his face and will be going in for another surgery on the first, please say extra prayers for him because he has been threw so much that this time he gets better and they will not have to do anymore surgery's on him and he does not have to go threw anymore pain I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You and God Bless.

8:30 P.M. I am very sorry this is late this week, just alot going on this weekend. It seems as the year goes on there is never enough time in the day to get everything done. Well this has been another good week for Stacey her new aid started Thursday, but I have not had the pleasure it get to meet her yet. PT was going to be there Thursday, but unfortunately she had to cancel due to she had a little one sick, but she will be there this week, so I will get caught up with everything again. We finally got our appointment for her eye's for November the 28th this was the soonest we could get her in, but I can't wait to get done so she can start seeing better without the blurred vision, but again not sure if they can help her or not or if it is or may be one of those things that have to correct it self but we will see. We have plans of going down to Independence Mo. for Thanksgiving to visit and see Stacey's oldest step brother and his family it has been awhile, plus to be seeing other family on my late-husbands side, alot have not been able to come to see Stacey due to distance and work and school so we are going to attempt to take Stacey to them, that is if the weather holds out, I don't want to take the chance if it gets bad with Stacey, due to keeping her warm if the vehicle broke down or anything else, I am getting at that age where I will not drive in winter weather unless I have to, so we will see how the weather holds out. But again Stacey has had alot of visitors this week and her brother Michael is home for a little while so she is soaking all the attention up from him, and Jami my grand-babies mother is here for the week to spend more time with us, so we have had a full house all week, and it has felt really good to have everyone home and all who has come by to visit. Well that is all for tonight will hopefully have more Sunday after visiting with Pt Thursday so until then God Bless.

9:00 P.M. Well another good week for Stacey, it seemed like a long one but the end finally got here. Stacey starts going to school longer tomorrow she will be going from 8:15 to 1:15 they are going to try this first instead of going all day because they don't want to push to much on her all at one time, because she is doing well with them so they are only going to add a few more hours instead of jumping to all day all at once, they want her to continue like coming to school and it not being to much on her all at once. Stacey had alot of visitors again this week, and this weekend the mother of my grand babies came to spend the weekend with us and we got to see the babies move all over the place, Stacey thought Mom was nuts because she was talking to another women's belly she keep shaken her head no at me every time I was speaking to my grand babies, but I couldn't help it they would move around more when I was speaking to them, we had a very good visit, I can not wait until they get here which will be the end of December to the Middle of January but I just can't wait. But back onto Stacey she had another good week at riding her horse Chance she seems to get better and better with her balance on him, I just wish she would have that much when she stands and walks, it has worried me a little this week because she has had or seemed to be more shaky this week than usual, I'm not sure why tho! I still have not heard anything about her eye appointment, which that is another thing that worries me to this last week or I guess I should say the last few weeks she has been closing one eye to read but also she has been reading from the right to left instead of the other way around like usual I am not sure if this is tied in with the shakes this week to or whats going on but hopefully we will get it figured out. But all and all it's been a good week with all of her company and just her having good days in school. So I guess that is all for tonight I am sorry but I am not able to get any pictures on the blog our drive went out on our computer, so we are using a old modem that will not let me download pictures so I am sorry but this is our luck when it comes to anything electronically between lawnmowers, vehicles and now computers, but that don't mean nothing compared to if Stacey continues to keep doing good, I know alot of people have been trying to, how do I but it, not have to much hope because they say that this may be all that Stacey does, she may not ever be able to graduate and she may not ever be able to walk correctly again, and the continuous do not get your hopes to high, but I am sorry I have to keep my hopes high, my hopes and dreams for her is the only thing that has keep me going as long as I have without losing it, we have had a very long road with her and I am proud of as far as she has come and all that she continues to do every day, I can not let my hopes down or my dreams to leave because as long as I have these I keep myself sane to keep pushing her on to do more every day, yes I know it will never be the same, but I am going to push her to get as close as possible, this is my goal and dream! Thanks to all and God Bless.

9:30 P.M. Well another great week for Stacey, I got to meet with Stacey's PT again Thursday and again she was really pleased with how well Stacey is advancing every time she see her, they are going to do more physical things with here at school with the gait walker and riding there exercises bike that they have in the weight room in school , but all and all she is doing very good I really can not believe what going back to school has been doing for her. OT was there Wednesday and was giving them some exercises for her eyes, I tried to but in last week but was not able with the blog site doing all it's strange things but she is starting to have some problems with her eyes, she is starting to close one or the other to try and read and reading backwards instead of the right direction, we are not sure but we think it is due to her right eye being lazy we have notice at times in pictures and just at times when she looked at us but it never seemed to bother her as much as it seems to be bothering her now we have been trying to get an appointment with a specialist eye Doctor but it seems like another run around to get anything done but that is way it has been since Stacey's accident so you would think I would be use to it by now but I haven't, we are also trying to get a hearing test set up for her this is something else she has been having problems with and again it is on the right side, I am not sure if this is side effects from the brain trying to rewire or what I will be glad when we get some answers. (If that is not a familiar Fraze) But besides that the school has not yet replaced Mrs. Gaddy Stacey has had subs since she has left and I will try and get her picture on tonight and some pictures of her on Chance her horse that she rides every Thursday, she did really good this week she pretty well got out of the chair and got herself turned around to sit on Chance and got her leg over and got herself positioned, after that there was some things that slowed her down but all and all she had another great ride this week. Well I guess that is all for tonight hopefully I can get these pictures on and this to download, so until next week God Bless.

9:00 A.M. Sorry this was late this week,I am having problems with my blog site again but another good week for Stacey, and yet a sad one. The lady in the picture, (which I am not able to but up at this time no thanks to my blog site) is Mrs. Gaddy Stacey's Aid at school, this was Mrs. Gaddy's last week well really Tuesday was her last day the Lord had blessed her with a Teachers position somewhere else which she really wanted but she was not even looking for this year, but with the Lords help by word it got around and she was offered a job, but I do believe it was do to she was so good with Stacey that he blessed her. She was really torn because she enjoyed being and working with Stacey so much, but this was for the best for her. To Mrs. Gaddy we Thank You for being such a wonderful person and all you did for my daughter, Thanks to your speciality you was able to bring Stacey a long ways and we are pleased that the Lord blessed you like he has, you deserve it, but at the same time we will miss you. To better news Stacey again went for her horse riding and again she loved it she is doing better every time she goes, Laura and her team of volunteers are so good I again say this is so wonderful, if anyone knows of anyone who could be helped by this please contact Laura I have her number on my last blog. Well not much to say this week accept to Thank all who continually stop by and visit Stacey I know it helps her alot and me also and Thank You all for the continue Prayers for us. May God Bless You and Your Family as you have ours.
