We Are Alive!

Holy cow! Yes we are still here. It has been a crazy past couple of months with me getting diagnosed, Scott taking his boards, and my sister getting married. But we made it through all the craziness and are just trying to get caught up on our sleep and getting Miss Taycee back on a schedule.

After I got diagnosed the first week of June I realized that Taycee and I were going to have to head home. I still didn't have my feet back underneath me yet and Scott needed to start studying hard for his first year boards so, we flew out early and left Scott in the heat to study away. Needless to say it paid off and he passed his boards. What a relief that was! He came up to Idaho and we spent our break in Idaho from the 4th of July till the 1st of August. It was so relaxing to be by family and to have baby sitters so we could go on dates every once in a while :) Not to mention to get out of the blistering heat (since July is usually the hottest month in AZ). My oldest sister got married the end of July. It was such a great way to end our vacation at home. It was so fun to help out and watch them get sealed in the temple. I do honestly think weddings are a lot more fun when your not chasing a crazy 15 month old around everywhere :) but it was still a lot of fun.

As for me I am feeling pretty dang good. I started on the medication while in Idaho and so far I think its doing its job. I give myself a shot once a day. It isn't really that bad, more of a pain, but I have a husband who always reminds me that I need to take my shot. I have learned that until it cools down here in AZ that I won't be spending much time out and about. I had an experience with the heat, and how it affects your MS, so I think I will be staying in doors from now on (or atleast until it cools down in the 90s). Thanks for all the great comments on the last post. It sure means a lot that we have so many people thinking of us as we go through this trial in our lives and we really do appreciate it!

I will post pictures soon of the wedding and our trip home. I am in desperate need of a new computer because it takes forever to upload pictures on mine so either I am going to have to start using Scott's computer to blog, or get a new computer. I am hoping for a new one :) but we will see what happens!
