Bribery seems to be the ticket. For Patrick it's money or food (he made $1 today); for Jenna, a trip to Claire's Boutique at the end of the week to shop for some bling is getting her through it. I am becoming completely at ease with this method, considering both kids did really well for their bloodwork today. We have had a relaxing day around our "home away from home" ie: Marriott's Residence Inn. Kids have been hot tubbing, out to lunch, a little school work and a nap for all of us! Kevin left for Sacramento today so the kids and I are on our own tonight and tomorrow morning until Aunt Nancy arrives to help out until we depart on Wednesday.
Patrick has been taking the delayed release medication for 4 nights now and has slept through the night each time! He wakes up soaked, but who cares? I am thrilled for him and for us!
We had a wonderful day yesterday--boating in the San Francisco Bay with our hosts the Diepenbrocks. Many thanks to Mike and Jim for the indulgent day! Check out our photo journal to see fun pictures of the outing!
Love to all of you who are checking in and saying prayers!
Teresa
Thank you for the updates Teresa. Patrick and Jenna are learning the tricks of the trade. We pray God gives you strength and continue to pray for success with the clinical trial. We love you guys and please give the Twinkies and big hug and kiss from uncle H.
