Sam's Better & Other Things

Sam is better i think no temperature today for the past 2 days he has been running 102.2 temp and they found nothing they did strep culture,checked the ears,checked for the flu even though he had the flu shot, drew blood to check for bacteria in his blood and took a chest xray and all that came back ok so it appears it is just viral and that he is mostly over it today. Zac will be starting kindergarten in the fall and i'm not ready for that he is mostly potty trained but still has trouble with the pooping issues this is what i get all the time from him " i don't know how to go poop mommy" ok this boggles me seriously how can you not know how to go poop and if he truely doesn't know how to do this how do i show him ? I don't really want to take him into the bathroom when i have to go although that has been suggested by the nurse at his preschool.I don't feel comfortable with th is.
Brian: well i have alot of problems with him he isn't in school right now although i think he seriously wants to go to school but i think he has alot of anxiety issues and depression issues. He is on Seroquel which is an antipyscotic-antidepressent and believe me the medicine does help it's better then nothing but it still isn't kicking the depression or anxiety he has. My husband is on him to get a job i don't think he is ready for this although i do think he could do a lobby position somewhere or a bus-boy position where he cleans up tables and wipes them down,takes out trash and fills condiments and stuff, but he needs afternoon or evening not morning. Still waiting on the SSI thing since he is 18 they have to do an adult determination on whether he gets it or not.. He has had SSI for several years probably like about 4 years i didn't apply before that because i didn't want to keep him from entering into the service if he wanted too but they really don't want him in there with all his disablities anyways. I'm an enablerer as Brian's worker Doug calls me lol i know this it is something that i have a hard time dealing with because he is old enough to know he has to take his pills or he has to do his chores without me nagging at him it would make my life that much easier and my stress would probably go down ten fold. what i really need to do is write down what i need to do to make myself better.Anyways need to get the little guy up and ready for the sitters and get me ready for work. Take Care All
