I think of undone as very victorian. I'm about to become unglued.

What is even happening?

Kat, how are Noah and Grace? Is Grace having more surgery?

Grace had another biopsy today. My own issues held up her getting the biopsy for 4 days, which means I need to check my ego out of the picture and be more at ease about this.

Noah is doing well. Little man is tired and fussy today. But he had a big day. He tried breastfeeding which was a disaster, but there you go. (He takes a bottle and it's not like there is a deadline for him to figure this out... so it might not be or it might be a month). He also passed his hearing test yesterday and his carseat test today. He started the first set of immunizations (though it will take three days to complete them all). I guess I might be fussy too if I were he.

I'm spent too. But I'm having dinner with the erstwhile paperdol and we are getting her on the list to visit Grace so I can worry less about Grace neglect.

Tomorrow is another big day: pick up the $200+ in prescriptions that are being hand-compounded for Noah, hear back from the home health people about the monitor and the oxygen tanks, meeting with the occupational therapist for a developmental assessment of Noah, and something else, but I can't remember what that is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What does compounding a prescription mean? I've been intending to ask that for forever, but only remember it when I see this one compounding pharmacy on Pico, and I'm not that much of a geek.

I choose...I choose unravelled. I'm pretty sure that's how nervously I am breaking down.

(ohmigod, Noah's going home soon! Grace has got to buck up so he doesn't start to think he owns the place!)

Compounding means to mix them on-hand for the patient. Compounded prescriptions are made-to-order. One of Noah's prescriptions, after insurance is $115, because it's being hand mixed to the right concentrations for him and in liquid form.

Aha. Let me hope I never have to be compounded for.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That sounds about right. I mean, relative to my friend who lost everything at once (apartment, job, boyfriend) and broke down. It was sudden, breaking. I'm sorry.

Woah.

I hope the news from it is good. I don't know about ego, but I know you wanted to know why it was medically advisable before you let them perform surgery on your daughter, and I know that's part of the job.

Oh my word. Yeah. Unglued is good.

Yeah (listen to ita, Grace).

I choose...I choose unravelled. I'm pretty sure that's how nervously I am breaking down.

I hope you ravel, soon.

I wish, ita, that instead of unravelling, we could find a way to crochet you back up.

Would anyone be surprised my knowlege of compounding pharmacies comes from....cats? I thought not.

passes out the knitting needles I don't know how to use and peels fingers off the spilled superglue bottle to pass around.

eta: hah. posted that before I saw Kat's wish.

(ohmigod, Noah's going home soon! Grace has got to buck up so he doesn't start to think he owns the place!)

Pretty much that. Snuggles anytime you want! No minders! Diapers full time!

I hope Grace gets that indulgence very soon.

Hrm, I think I'll spend this weekend getting them a coulda-been-OUR-birthday gift.That'll be my gift to me.

When you need me mostest, let me know.
