good results!!!

I'm so excited to say, the results are in and Troys tremors/twitching is NOT in any way related to seizures! Were so thrilled with the news that not only do we not need to worry about seizures but that Troy still has his freedom to drive. 

It's been a constant struggle between the two of us while driving lately. This would be so much easier if there wasn't ice and snow everywhere! I open my opioniated mouth too much and Troy gets seriously annoyed with it. I trust him but sometimes he feels the need to look around and not pay attention to the road and I find my self clinging to the seat with the death grip yelling, "get back on the road!!". He has gotten a lot better but I'm not sure I'm ready for him to just take off on his own yet.

When I got up this morning Troy was grinning from ear to ear. I knew right away he was up to no good. He had called our insurance company and added his truck back onto the insurance. Giving him a vehicle at his disposal 24/7. This was after I said he couldn't do it yesterday, apparently that means I'm defiantly in need of anxiety meds after today. I have had the conversation with him that I'm not ready for him to take off whenever he wants. He makes up the strangest excuses to drive anywhere possible. Every night when we go to bed I can't tell you how many times I hear, "what are we doing tomorrow, do we have plans, I'm going to make a list, help me with a list, babe what should we do tomorrow?" Oh. My. Word. Gotta love him! 

I must say I'm very proud of myself for allowing Troy to drive completely ON HIS OWN today. I was driving behind him but I would still consider it a huge step for me. Surpringly, I didn't come down with any pain in my chest and/or difficulty breathing! 


Here are a couple pictures from when Troy and I went to the Griffins game last Saturday night! We had so much fun getting out for an adventurous (for us) date! 


We had some great seats too!

    Troy, I remember getting the "OK" to drive again after my injury. It kind of makes you feel useful again, doesn't it? We're so happy to see the progress you're still making. And Kelsey....it'll be ok. God's got Troy in His hands :)

Roles have reversed here at the Bosch house. I all of the sudden became patient and Troy my care giver. Scary, I know. I'm not handling it well. I have this idea that it's just easier if I do things because they will get done the way I want them too.  Last Tuesday after work I landed myself back in Holland Hospital but this time as a patient. At my last appointment my BP was elevated and they told me to keep and eye on it. Throughout the weekend I had checked it three times a day; morning, noon and night. After a few days I had noticed a trend up. Of course it was after hours so I called in just to ask. Little did I know she would have me come in for testing, let alone not let me leave for the whole night either! I was a little upset which probably didn't help the BP issue. They kept saying, "your BP is scary and girl, your swollen!". All of that was true but I was convinced I could fix it by a good night sleep :) after IV fluids, meds, blood work and fetal monito...

New beginnings

Where to even start.  First off, sorry for the lack of updates. I have been obsessively hanging out with my kid because well, I'm obsessed with him. I keep telling myself that I have to get it out of my system now before he is a teenager and wants absolutely nothing to do with me. But that won't actually happen because I'll be his best friend forever.  Seriously though, if there was an award for best baby ever, Brody would get it. The kid is so laid back! Sometimes I feel something must be wrong with him. I woke up to him this morning pulling the blanket over his face and then laughing uncontrollably, at 10:15AM! I'm very seriously considering being done at one. Just kidding, but kind of not.  Brody is 6 months old already, I don't know when or how that happened but it did and now I want to cry. I've always felt that as I've gotten older the years go by faster. But then you have a kid and it literally is like living life in fast forward mode. Someone press p...

walk down memory lane.. ICU style

I wish I had a instruction manual for my life. Telling me what is wrong and what's right; what I should do, or shouldn't. I can't say I have felt really frustrated since the hospital/rehabs stays. Today was just one of those days. I get frustrated with myself because I feel like there is so much to be thankful for, why am I frustrated? I  wish I could sit in my own bubble with Troy and just be a loner. I feel life would be so much easier. It probably wouldn't but life is so annoying sometimes. I'm thankful for new days, days were we have the choice to start over!  We had a fun night tonight and went back to where it all kind of started, the Spectrum ICU. It was a strange feeling walking in, holding his hand. It was so fun to see all the nurses faces when it clicked that this was TROY! It wasn't busy so we were able to go in the room where he stayed and show him around. It was so nice to be back in such a different position; walking with Troy and seeing an empty ...
