After homeschooling for 3 years we opted to try public school again in the hopes that it would give me more time to focus on my health. Many of you know that since May I have been dealing with a lot more health issues. I started having life threatening allergic reactions to things I normally eat from my very restricted diet after taking a steroid. There is nothing worse than convulsing on the table in the ER in front of your children, traumatic for everyone. After my first ER visit I had 4 more anaphylaxis reactions and have become highly chemical and fragrance allergic. I have started back on a healing program trying to undo the damage the steroids did to my body. In addition to my newly heightened reactions I am still dealing with the masses in my thyroid and lymph nodes, which doubled after the steroid. I go to Seattle in a few months. There is always a positive - my kids don't ask for things they are allergic to anymore.
I have not been able to be very timely with getting all of my clients photos out, and I apologize. Everything is taking me so much longer. I will try harder to keep updates current as things get closer to Seattle. I may be taking a sabbatical in the next few months and I will give everyone as much notice as possible.
Thanks so much for sharing your kiddos and families with me. I so enjoy capturing how much everyone changes through the years. As always I appreciate your understanding and patience.
