Haven's first partial week of school!

My baby is loving school......I still worry about her constantly there. She told me she hasn't made any friends yet but she's only been there a couple of days. I was so excited last week as the teachers told her dad Haven was playing at recess and actually tried to jump rope!

I received some pictures that her teacher took of Haven on the playground! They are awesome. I'm going to scan them in so everyone can see them but we are super happy with how she is doing so far.

We were concerned last week on Thursday and thought we were already going to have to call the school and she was going to miss a day. We got up at 6:30 am and Haven was wandering around stumbling. Instantly we knew she was sleep walking. She had no focus in her eyes and slurring her words. She just kept talking about school and that she had to go. We knew we had to get her back in bed and try to get her back in to a deep sleep. It's the only way to bring her out of this. We've never had a deadline though to get her back to sleep and then back awake. I had to leave around 7:30am and finally she was in her bed snoring. I got a call around 7:45 that she was awake and back to normal. It only takes about 15 - 20 minutes to get her back down and out of it that she pops back up. I was very happy she was able to get to school.

I know she wouldn't have been happy to have to call and say she couldn't come to school because she was sleep walking.

She had a day of treatments last week but it didn't stop her on Thursday. If she was tired I don't think she was going to tell anyone. This will be her first full week of school and I hope she can make it through the week and hopefully her mind will start getting tired that she will sleep better.

    What wonderful news that you are enjoying school and having fun at recess. I know that you'll learn lots and will have more fun as each day goes by.

    Bye for now!

ROHHAD in Ireland

 I received this story in my email today. It still shocks me that my daughter has ROHHAD. It's a horrible disease that destroys a child...
