5 November

On How He's doing.

Slowly But surely......better. Even though I haven't shared a ton on this space about the aftermath of Trevor's concussion, It has been a haul.  The weeks feel like months.  He's attending full school days, and doing some homework and reading too.  He's played his saxophone a few times and is going to try band this week. He did 20 mins of swimming last Friday and is going to try more this week. He's been out to play with his friends and brother.  He still gets headaches and stomachaches, but only a few now.  He still has anxiety at bedtime.  Hes' still a little irritable but that's getting better.   We've taken him to the doctor, a physical therapist, soaked his feet in Epsom salts (heard that helps) and given him Homeopathic Stress relief drops.  We've talked to other parents, the school nurse, the gym teacher and the Principal.  We have a "plan" at school.  Luckily, this is not a permanent situation.  I give him big hugs every day when he gets home from school.  I'm still terrified of him getting hurt again, but slowly letting go.  Slowly.
