And now I know

So now I have the results of the hematology tests, and I know that it isn't all in my head. My fatigue goes beyond being the mother of 3 kids, and now at least someone will listen. And now I know why I basically collapse every weekend. After pushing through the entire week, chasing after and busing around my kids to school, Tae Kwon Do, softball, birthday parties, and music lessons, there is no energy left, no matter how much sleep I get.

Now for the fun part - finding out how often I need to get blood taken to keep it at an optimal level for me. Hmmm. It would be even better if I could have that blood taken without coming so close to passing out...

  1. So now for trial and error? Sounds a lot like my life right now. It's hard to greet each new change with a sense of humor, but it's the best defense we've got. At least you get to make vampire jokes. Keep us posted.

  2. Exactly - without humor I would be lost. Hang in there. If you're nice, I might even share my leeches. ;-) I don't think I responded to your bike question. The answer is no, I have not introduced my kids yet to the religion of the bike. I'm waiting to get rid of all the training wheels first!
