Our Sunday in pictures. People kid me about taking Sunday pictures but this is when we are all together and have someone else who can take a picture for us. I've always treasured pictures of my kids but now even more so. I wish I had more pictures and videos of Selah before the accident
The WHOLE Gang:)
Sarah is smiling:)
Selah was starting to turn her head towards our friend making crazy noises:)
Sweet girl with her new dress on
My beautiful niece Anna!!
Yvonne and Jon
this is what we do after church LOL
I love that Sam can drink from a straw.
Sarah drank from a cup today too. I should have gotten a picture.
A good rainy day with family and friends....worshipping God together.
One of my closest college friends is down from New York and tomorrow our "group" is hitting our alma mater Southeastern University to walk around and remember all the good times we had there:) And to be envious of how nice the students have it now!!! And I'm planning on wearing SHORTS!!! LOL Back when we went there, the students were NOT allowed to wear shorts so I'm going to enjoy wearing them tomorrow. All my SEC friends who lost "honor points' for wearing shorts will totally "get it"!!!!! I might even wear a tank top! :)
Selah has had an incredible weekend. She has not had one dose of Valium or Clonidine since Thursday! She has slept like a log too:) Last night I woke her up (accidently of course) at 5am to change her and it ticked her off LOL. This morning she slept till 6 :30!!! It's really good signs that she is comfy and well.
I don't know if anyone has seen the news reports about Fish Oil. It seems in several studies high doses of fish oil seems to cause prostrate cancer. Obviously we don't have to worry about that but it did make me wonder about other kinds of cancer. The studies were not done to see if fish oil had any connection with cancer but that was what was found.
Selah is in her 8th month of taking massive amounts of fish oil. We do feel it has been a positive thing for her. Everyone who comes in contact with her can not believe she was without a heartbeat for 45 minutes. She is much more aware than anyone they have dealt with that was in a similar situation. I hear this from everyone new who takes care of her. She has wonderful skin, her muscles are great, she has nice body fat..... all that is good. But now I have concerns.... we will be looking into this more carefully. We only want to help Selah and not harm her in any way!!!
So please keep praying for Selah.
I love the new pictures! I'm a picture mom myself, so I appreciate the "Sunday picture" idea :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture! I like the one you chose for your cover photo better than the last one, not just because of Sarah's beautiful smile, but because Selah has her eyes open and looks more like there is someone home inside. And she does look so adorable in her new dress!
ReplyDeleteI saw the same study....my husband takes it for heart health (recommended by our doctor since heart issues run in his family).
ReplyDeleteIn his words--the benefits outweigh the risks. He'll get regular prostate exams but he's not going to stop taking fish oil. I plan on starting myself asap.
Talk to Dr. Sears--but I'm sure he will be reassuring to you. Studies can make everything look dangerous--it all depends on who funded them, and what kind of risk increase they're talking about.
Love the family picture :)
