What's going on?

Well we have now been home two days and things aren't exactly back to normal yet. After we got home from the hospital Tatum started not wanting to walk and complaining about her legs hurting. Well it has just gotten worse and she won't walk at all without crying and keeping her legs completely straight, just moving her hips. I talked to the nurse at the doctors office today and she thought it was maybe just some sore muscles from being in bed for so many days. Sounded good but I got to thinking that she is on so much pain medication still that it should be taking care of the pain. So if things are still like this Monday we will be going back to the doctor to have some testing done. I guess I really never thought about what it would be like to have a child that is not mobile but it is so sad and definitely challenging. All Tatum has talked about this week is going to Chucky Cheese and the plan was to go this weekend when she was better so it was very dissapointing for all of us to not be able to go tonight. My sister Haley is here for the weekend and we are also doing respite care. We are enjoying being home and trying to get rested and relax since we have done neither of those in the last week.

Have a great Easter everyone!
