I'm finally getting back to your blog to check for comments. :) It's been a rough week with slow improvement, but there has been improvement.<br />Isaiah had VEPTR surgery, placing titanium rods in his back that will be able to be extended as he grows. The goal is to keep his scoliosis from progressing so that in the future we can do a spinal fusion. Oh so fun.CristyLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10410962268582246670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43847781758086614.post-62904587570447430452012-02-27T07:08:38.769-08:002012-02-27T07:08:38.769-08:00This is a really good idea, chronically ill child ...This is a really good idea, chronically ill child or not.

I do know some simple grammar rules. I'm just a little tired. We're waiting through Isaiah's surgery right now.

As Isaiah's been getting older and realizing that he has his own opinions, we've been dealing with how to discipline him appropriately as well. How do you help your extended family understand your discipline and how to join you rather than work against you? I'd love to know!CristyLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10410962268582246670noreply@blogger.com
