Disboutiquers Part 7 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

I made it.... page seven and 3 hours Wow!!! what have you all been up to. I better go back and find out....:surfweb:
 
I think that Riley may have another infection. I had a little unpleasant interaction with a nurse I can't stand. She once said when I called in "the doctor doesn't know what else to do and he doesn't know who would so I don't know what you want from me." Yeah, she's not my favorite.

Today she told me that they had decided that Riley would be cath'ed every time she leaves a sample from now on. I had never been told this and I am not really o.k. with them making medical decisions for my child without even asking me. I said NO and gave my reasons and the nurse (I call her hag in my mind!) asked me "what do you want me to do." Before I even knew it, I was being really snotty and said, "well for starters you could show a little compasion and then you can tell the doctor that I would like to discuss this before a decision is made." I know I shouldn't have been so ugly to her, but I've had it!

Basically the doctor is trying to convince me that she hasn't been getting infections that the "clean catch" samples just aren't sterile. Whatever!!!! The cultures have grown out all but a couple of times so this doesn't even make sense. We compromised and agreed that she will leave a clean catch sample (potty in a cup) but we won't start any antibiotic treatment until the culture comes back in 2 days. I told Riley that when she is in a lot of pain we need to do a cath so that she doesn't have to suffer. She pinky promised that she would tell me when it was bad. So now we wait. She says it's not so bad right now. I just hope it stays that way.

I actually overheard the hag nurse say, "I'm not even going in that room" to another nurse that needed some help with the computer. I started laughing and really wanted to call out into the hall, "you want a piece of me" but I wasn't sure she'd see the humor in it!:laughing: Riley and I did though!
 
Poor Riley! That is totally unprofessional of that nurse, let alone inappropiate in general. I am sorry.

Teresa, heading to a family reunion. My dad's grandparents lived there and some of his brothers and sisters were born there so heading to the little town of Buchanon. There is also a family cemetery and he is buried there. We have been in 3 years and no one goes back there unless there is a reunion, no one even lives there anymore. It is quite interesting.
 

:flower3: Hi Teresa! I see your up late again!":flower3:
I was thinking that this was pretty early for me!!! I may actually go to bed soon, then again, I may not....

Denise, it just breaks my heart reading about Riley. The total frustration of the situation has got to be almost overwhelming for the two of you. :hug: What a dumb jerky nurse too!!! Good think I wasn't there, I might have popped her one! I gave some of Heather's nurses what for when she was in the hospital! Let me at em Denise, just let me at em! :yay: :yay: :yay:

Sounds like fun, is it a big reunion?

You held your tongue better than I would have. I would have said things that were not near as polite. I thought that nurses were taught to be compassionate to their patients. You keep being vigilant and you and Riley will get the help that you need. Surely Riley isn't the only person in the whole of the world that has had this problem. Someone somewhere knows how to deal with this problem. Just keep pressing till you get a solution. :grouphug:
 
I have been working on a bunch of projects tonight. Jenna all of a sudden got it in her head that she wanted all of the Fancy Nancy clothes and accessories. So she talked her grandpa into giving her $10 to buy a hat. When we got to Target she decided that she wanted it all. I told her that that was out of the question, because the cost would just be too much. So I agreed to make her a FN tutu skirt, a FN purse and to buy her a pair of sunglasses like the FN ones. So I worked on these items tonight and also made two t-shirt dresses for her friends and a nightgown for the littlest friend, Meranda. I still have a Flamingo outfit to make her for her to wear tomorrow when she goes for her first Eye Therapy appointment. I'm excited for her to start, because I want to see how this improves her. Well back to the sewing table.

This office is so not listening to you guys anymore. I think you need to try and find a "fresh" doctor that has an office that will listen with concern for your child. This office seems not to care 100% about you guys anymore... I know you said something about the Mayo I think. Sometimes fresh eyes help!

That is HORRIBLE that she talked to you that way. Since she didn't hesitate to say it it kind of makes ya wonder if the lack of professionalism is also something the dr. accepts. I hope you're able to find a better dr. becasue these people sound like they got their training from a cracker jack box.
 
So I need some inspiration! I'm working on curtains for DD9 for her HM room and I can't seem to get my butt into gear. I've had the fabric for about 6 mo and now I'm finally working on it. The top is going to be a puff valance and then a shear behind it..I know super easy, but I just can't seem to get it done.

Plus the other projects I have keep backing up. I'm actually banned from Joanne's until I finish them:confused3 . How does everyone finish their projects? How do you stay inspiried to finish?
 
Tnkrbelle565-if you do the Feb Dis meet you could fly down with DD & I out of Logan. Your scrapbook pages for the Big Give look incredible!!!

I could fly out of Logan...or Manchester (Southwest)...I'll keep you posted if/when I find a good deal. Thank you!!!
 
I'd suggest using Cheez Whiz. We had a poodle years ago who was epileptic and wouldn't take medication at all. We would hide it in a teaspoon of Cheez Whiz and he'd take it no problem! Even the vet started using it when we took the dog in to be boarded. So much easier than shoving it down the throat. Good luck!

We always wrap a pill in peanut butter. Put it in the roof of their mouth as far back as possible. They are so busy trying to lick the peanut butter that they swallow the pill. It works every time for me. Also our old vet would always stew chicken for a dog that needed to eat. You might try it.

Thanks for the suggestions! I will try them. Last night was awful he is still refusing food which is NOT like him at all! Rhodesian Ridgebacks are known to eat and eat and then throw up and go back for more.

He also peed in the house every few hours all last night it was awful.
this morning I gave him some ginger root water I boiled for him last night with his 1 set of meds in them. He drank it then pottyed outside.

Still o eating though. I think when I run to get the car oil changed today I am going to lock him in the bathroom with some food just incase he has some accidents. Daisy our other Ridgeback is in the crate.

Poor Daisy is so freaked out by him she is hiding under my computer desk right now.

I am really not sure what I am going to do DH said he either starts to eat or collapses and then we do the deed. Problem is if he collapses again I CAN"T get him to the car. There is no way I can ask neighbors again to help me. I can't lift him he is almost a 100 lbs and I have a broken back (spondylilothesis) and major back issues and DH just doesn't get that I can't physically lift him! My neck/shoulder and right hand are already numb from the 1st time trying to lift him. I am a bit freaked because I don't want the kids to see him if he does collapse again.

Sorry I guess I needed to vent...

I am getting really grumpy!:headache: First, I spent the morning at the hospital with Riley and now my computer won't read the pictures off of my memory card!!!!:headache: :headache: :headache:

Anyway....

I finished my big give outfit for Shay Lynne (BG#2) last night and I am mailing it tomorrow. I can't wait to see pictures of her in it. I really hope it fits! I'd love to show it to you, but my stupid computer isn't agreeing with me tonight.

OH NO! I hope Riley is doing better this am? Any word on the Mayo?
You were defiantly MUCH nicer then I would have been!!!!! My Jersey mouth would would have been all tude!

Please keep us up dated on what is going on.

Simple I either don't have enough material to even start a project or I can't afford to buy enough to start it.:lmao:

Well actually right now i have a few I want to start. Right now I am working on a patch work twirl for DD(8) then I have a minnie dot I want to do for our trip in Nov ad another skirt I want to make for her. I also have gorgeous material that my cousin brought back for me from India to make kitchen curtains with but I just can't find the pattern i have in my mind any where.

So for now I told myself I can't even cut out any other projects until i finish one.

How far are you from Toronto? Would a drive be out of the question? We have a world class children's hospital, The Hospital for Sick Children (or "Sick Kids" as the locals call it!) has a great ER and you could "plan" a visit to Toronto and Riley could come down with something and you could visit the ER there. We have universal healthcare in Canada, and I'm not sure if you would have to pay or not - I could look into it more for you. PM me if you think you could do this, and I'll help in anyway I can.

O, and I am back now from my mini vacation to my MIL's while she was on vacation! Had an awesome time babysitting her pooch and house! lol, She has a rather large house with a pool so the kids were in heaven playing hide and go seek and swimming!

Candice

They are all beautiful! I love the little hoodies on them. Very cute!

Oh and we are going on a DINSEY CRUISE! We do not have the dates yet BUT...........................................................................................................................................................................................................
It is through Make a wish! Zoe is super excited (As are the other 2 girls!) Her wish was to go on a Disney Cruise and to spend a night in Cinderella's Castle so we are all super excited! We do not have our exact dates yet and might not until just a few weeks before we depart so I have to get to work on making some outfits and FAST! lol

Thanks for letting me share my excitment with ya!

Candice:banana:

congratulations! Nice choice on a wish!

Those are so cute and so is your dd!


YEAH!

Some good news ROCKY IS COMING HOME TONIGHT!:banana: :banana: :banana:

It is still touch and go but they think he will start eating when he is home. He has never been in a kennel type situation in his whole 10 yrs. when we go away I always got a pet sitter or just brought him with us. So that could very well be why he isn't eating. His electrolytes are still bad but his stomach was bad so the vet thinks if we can get him eating they will improve.

Please keep saying your prayers for my baby!

Very happy to hear he is home. I am sorry he still isn't doing well. I have no suggestions for the eating, but wanted t give you some :hug: . Hang in there.

it is ridiculous the way that nurse treats you and Riley. I would have had enough. I hope you hear from Mayo soon and find out from your insurance how to get in there. She needs to see some professionals with compasion.

Denise- it really sounds like it's time to change Dr.'s Did you inform your Dr. about his nurses attitude? They have definetly thrown in the towel where your DD is concerned. CHANGE CHANGE CHANGE!!! It'll probably be the best thign you'll do for her.
