10:20 P.M. Well a very long last two weeks, I would like to thank everyone for there prayers and support for the Hasty Family in there time of need. It was one of the best funerals I have ever been to everyone could cry but yet laugh at the same time with all the stories, it was a pleasure, considering the circumstances. Well I have taken Stacey to the doctors this last week, and we got the report from her EEG which came back to a score of a 6-7 rating which means she is slow with a mild retardation, which in time that will improve, at least that is my belief! Dr. Morris seen her Tuesday and was checking in on her because of her wisdom teeth coming threw so far there is not infection but still giving her alot of problems we are counting down the days until her Dentist App. which is Nov. 11. Dr. Morris has also ordered a ultrasound of her belly Wednesday due to she has been complaining of pains in her stomach and says it fells like something is growing in there, he wants to check it out and see what is going on especially due to her having the diarrhea. We went and seen the Nero on Wednesday and he did the nerve test on her, on her right arm that has the tremors he found no nerve damage in it which was good, but then he checked her legs and found nerve damage in both legs how much I am not sure he has a Indian accent and he is very hard to understand, he says it may due to her laying on her back as long as she did or there may be other problems, I am not for sure but I think he said he wanted to do a full spine and hip x-ray on her since the hospital never did this, so we will find out more when Dr. Morris calls me with a better explanation of what The Nero. doctor said. With the Meds that the Nero doctor has her on seems to be helping the last few weeks there has been less outburst and she has been telling us when she has to go to the bathroom and has been holding it, she is still incontinent at night but one step at a time. I have been surprised at alot of things that have been going on with her these last few weeks I am happy to see them, only 26 months after the accident and things seem to be coming together, the Nero. doctor up the dosage on her meds so we will see what comes from it. I am not sure if it is the Meds or if it is her but time will tell, I am just glad to see the changes. Thank You all for your continuous prays and continuous support. No pictures tonight will try to get on next week with updates and pictures, Stacey has her ride-a-thon on November the 2nd and they have a ramp this year so she will get to ride so I will have pictures of that. God Bless.

9:00 P.M.

Well another week here and gone, and not really much accomplished. Stacey has still been having her spells with the outburst and kicking and name calling but all and all it seems to be getting alittle better. We finally got into the encro. Friday and again no answers they did not even try and check into anything they said just from what I had described that she did not need to see them but a gastro. doctor but they were not willing to refer us, I also asked if they could try and hook us up with Barnes or Children's for Stacey's wisdom teeth which have been giving her alot of pain but they could not refer me for that either. Another wasted trip and wasted money on gas, just not sure what I am to do no one will listen and others won't work fast enough. Enough of my complaining!!!

Dedication: I would like to let everyone know that Ray Sr. passed Saturday morning this man had many admires including me, this man was a pastor and a continuous helper to the community giving 2 years to the fire department and 18 years to the Ambulance here in New Haven and always there for anyone who needed a helping hand. Ray Sr. unfortunately had a long run with cancer but was witty and there for his family as much as he could until his passing Saturday. I would like to ask for prayers for the Hasty family tonight and for the next few days because not only have they lost someone close they have lost there best friend. Ray Sr. has left a big impression in many ways to so many people Tuesday is the funeral and New Haven will be burying one of there finest. Tonight I would like to dedicate this blog to him, if not for him we would not have the blog for Stacey and he has in so many ways inspired me with Stacey I myself will miss him, he was pretty well my father also and my children's grandpa. I Love and Will Miss You Ray

Love Kim and Stacey.
