Mommy has been SO busy. She has been staying away from all social networking sites and sadly this blog. Nothing is wrong, just making sure that we are living in the moment. Kids grow up so fast and we don't want to miss anything.
Mommy is also on track to go back to school in September. It seems that everything is just a little harder these days. So after jumping through many hoops, she has been accepted into the medical studies program at a local community college. Its a start to many new things to come.
Thursday April 3rd, Aunt Nancy, John and I attended the PFLAG Awards at the WTC in Boston. What an honor for John, he was one of 60 students chosen to receive a scholarship to college for his work on the Matthew Shepard Project. He cast, directed and ran the entire production. He even donated all of the funds from the show to a local non profit group. A member from the PFLAG board of directors, mentioned that he was one of the only students whom everyone voted for unanimously. I am so proud of him, I swear that he is going to change the world.
Friday April 4th, Tucker had his cardiology follow up at children's hospital in Boston. Dr Porras couldn't have been happier at his X-rays and his lab work. Everything looks great! Dr Porras said that he wants to see us in 1 month. During that month he will be on a family vacation in Guatemala. So he told Tucker to behave himself! Fingers crossed.
Lollie came over for a visit after work.
Mommy got to go out for a night out in Boston to celebrate Gary's cousin Julie's bachelorette party. It was a great night full of many laughs. While we had dinner at PF Chang's a little boy came over and asked if she was a princess. It was so sweet. He even stopped to say goodbye to us as well.
Tucker also continues his weekly therapy appointments for speech, PT and OT. He is making progress rather slowly, but he is continuing to move in the right direction.
This was the first weekend that we felt safe enough to venture out of the house for fun activities. We attended an Easter egg hunt in NH for our heart group, two birthday parties, went out for breakfast and attended Spencer's baseball activities all weekend. 

Tucker ended up with the stomach bug on Monday, which prompted several calls to Children's hospital regarding Tuckers multiple diuretics. Mommy spoke to Katie our discharging NP and she checked with Dr Freeman, who was covering Dr Porras while he was on vacation. Discontinue his morning Lasix and Alnodactone. We finally got freeze pops and crackers into him and prayed that they wouldn't have to readmitted him for fluid retention. After his afternoon nap he woke up a healthy child. We are hoping that it was just a 12 hour bug.
