The Patrickisims

#1 Never expect things to be easy.

#2 Leaving Katelynn or Abigail alone invites disaster.

#3 Never give up, never surrender.

#4 Even though life is what you make of it,there is only so much you can do with finite resources.

#5 You are only as sick as you let yourself believe.

#6 Just because you can do something, does not mean you should agree to do it. (Jed's new work motto) :-)

Medical Maladies


Katie has been having problems with her tonsils for a little over two years now and when she was 2 we removed her adenoids, but she was too little to remove her tonsils. So after a couple years of slow growth, she is still a little girl, we decided to remove the tonsils. The surgery went well and they ended up removing a portion of her adenoids again, the recovery was not the funnest event though. After many years of taking her medicine beautifully and often just having to hand her the syringe we had to hold her down and force her to take her medicine every few hours. Only a couple days after Katie's surgery Abbie got into the dishwasher, got out a steak knife and cut her finger open. So we had to take her to the doctor and get three stitches. Luckily Katie was doing quite well after a week.
