Lockdown 3; Day 25

 All booked in for my vaccine on Monday. Andy was not impressed that I have to go to Canterbury - but I'm just pleased I am finally getting stabbed! I have honestly been terrified for the last 11 months, especially once I heard how this adorable virus attacked kidneys. Mine are crap without any help from a Chinese virus...

Mum is booked in for Tuesday, Andy had his almost a month ago and my sister has had hers as she is currently volunteering as a vaccine hub!  So we should all be protected thankfully...

Having assured the nurse yesterday that I feel fine I'm now feeling far too hot and decidedly rough...but I'm getting that injection! The GPs in Ashford don't appear to be doing anything at all...my appointment was made through the Renal Dept at Canterbury Hospital. Dr Klebe did ask if I'd had it in passing and I just laughed! But as I told him that my GP was worrying about my blood results and he explained there was no reason to I think he has changed his opinion of them. I am actually now in a position to explain the results to them - if I could actually get to speak to a Dr rather than a nurse!

On plus point this week is that Mikey is actually up to date with his Maths and his Darwin Biography is underway...but he is still refusing to go to sleep at a sensible time... I really feel like he is the wall for me to try to destroy with my head... At the moment I just want to get him back into a sensible routine for when he finally gets back to school...In theory we are going to get the school decision before he goes back; This is currently the worry that keeps me awake. The North or Towers would be a complete nightmare for him as they would chew him up and spit him out very quickly. I need to find the energy in case we have to start fighting... I do not want him turning into the thugs I have seen in the uniforms from those schools.

How Do I keep Going?

 This week I have totally reached the end of my very frayed tether. I am more exhausted than I have felt for months and I am also feeling isolated, un-needed and unwanted. |Mikey is settled at school, is doing well and making new friends and finding new interests. All I do it listen while he frantically searched for reasons for him feeling f=depressed. When he does come up with something you can guarantee that there is nothing I can do to cure or solve whatever he is worrying about. He also has new people he can talk to so I am certainly no longer needed. I've also had my latest lot of blood tests done. I can't remember my access thing for my results so I can't look at them. My memory is failing even more than usual and I hate this. I'm also in constant pain and I can't do anything that is part of my usual way of living. I really just want all this to end. I have no energy, I can't sleep and even cooking something simple leaves me feeling dead on my feet. All I

Worried

 We are now the day before Mikey starts at The North School....all they have done today is worry me even more that this is the wrong place for my son. I know all parents are protective - but he took so long to have and I really do not trust them to look after him properly. We have been provided a timetable which states that his first lesson is PE - Yr 7 parents have been told not to send PE Kit in tomorrow.... Also, he is in group 7x3....but the timetable has him in 7x2. If they can't send the right timetable how can I trust them to look after the most valuable thing I have? The chair of Governors has also sent a letter about the school joining the Swale Academies Trust. From what I have heard about this on local news I do not want my child at a school under their control. How can I get him out of there? Since I started writing this |I have e-mailed the Head asking why everything is so disorganised the day before they start and have said it will not help kids with autism as everyth

Lockdown, Day 90

Definitely thinking backwards today!! 10 years ago Andy had to take me to Hospital for monitoring as I couldn't feel the baby moving and a friend in Scotland (who was also pregnant) told me to get checked! I spent all of the Friday afternoon on a monitor and having blood samples taken. The original plan was for me to go in on Sunday for my induction so I was sent home as they were happy my bump was doing OK and there was nothing to worry about! That was my first experience that I remember of how tired hospital tests make me so I was not in a cooking mood! Dinner ended up being KFC and a tub of Ben & Jerries as I had decided that the bump couldn't put that much weight on in 2 days!  Just as I curled up with my tub the hospital called me and told me to go back the following morning as my blood tests had shown a problem. She did tell me what it was but I honestly can't recall what she said! The plan at that point was to do my induction as soon I arrived, so as I thought I
