OutSide Decorations and Picture of Trinity

Here Comes Santa Clause ... Right Down Santa Clause Lane..

Hi. Everything is going well here. Trinity is being a little more spoiled everyday, since Christmas is comming up. She is excited and tried already yesterday to help unwrap presents, and Vincent caught her and she started to cry. Tried to tell her that we get those when Christmas comes but she is still to little to understand that concept yet. She does pretty well with her brother, playing and annoying him especially with getting into his room and trying to play with his Hot Wheel cars. They do at night have about 1 hr to horse play and she giggles and laughs when he makes faces and hollers around here. Well I am going to post some Christmas photos on the here if you want to take a look. Just finally got the outside decorations done today. Donny is going to Physical Therapy every other day and I don't really know if it seems to be working or not. He is still pretty sore when they try and tweak his neck. Me I am just bouncing around from home to Dr's apointments and going and visiting at the Gastation, just trying to stay sane!!! Well Have A Good Chirstmas and A Happy New Year!

Gods Blessing To You And Your Family's

Just Some Old/New Pictures And Just Talking..

Hello there. Just wanted to update on this blog that I keep forgetting to do. Hm things that are going on lately. Donny is still hanging in there with injury to knee and neck. He is going to start physical therapy here in our home town next Monday. Still no word on the Army and what they are going to do with him. (He is ornery as heck still) Vincent is doing so so in school just lots of kids are very rude and get on his nerves and I am really debating next year just to home school him or put him in a private school next year.(Lately he is trying to be sly and ask for a early Christmas present.. UM NO NOT HAPPENING! Good try though!!)Trinity is very very independent now. She wants to wash her own hair most of the time and does not want us to give her medicine to her she wants to do it her self. Also she wants to help make the kitty water a nice nasty brown color by mixing cat food in it. (joy huh!) She is very spoiled and wants Daddy all the time. As of me I am trying to keep it together..been kinda down lately and stuff has gotten out of hand at the house.I am having company next Wed since Donny's Mother and Father do not get the weekends or the Holidays off so that should be fun to have them all together. Other that that nothing else to report.. but Trinity had her 1st year after her liver Transplant on the 17Th. Time does fly.

Have A Great Thanksgiving With Your Familys

Live...Like its your last day

Laugh....till your stomach hurts

Love..like you have never been hurt

Nothing Much...

Hi. There is nothing going on over here as of lately. Just wanted to toss up some new pictures of Trinity and let everyone know that things are going as smoothly as they can. She is learning new words daily and is now getting REALLY independent and won;t take no for an answer. Like just this evening when I was cleaning out the cupboards, she decided that she was going to play splash in the cat water dish! Ya that didn;t go over very well!! Well God's Blessing To All Of You!

More Larson Reunion Pictures

Larson Reunion Pictures/ Updates

Hello. Here are some pictures that were taken yesterday from the Yearly Larson Reunion.

Updates for my family are Donny is still in the National Guard for the time being so that is awesome to hear. We are still awaiting the knee surgery for that one. We did go to St. Vincent Hospital on the 12Th of this month for another MRI and we are waiting results for that, and won't know anything until the 1st of this coming month. Vincent started 4Th grade and is liking his new teacher this year and is doing well in school. Trinity has been running a low grade fever for the past 3 days but she is still doing OK. We have her pentamidine infusion this coming Thursday at Doernbecher's. Me I am just keeping up with the housework and staying busy with school and massive Dr's appointments between family members. Other than that things are going as well as they can. Till Next Time.

More Depressing News.....

Well I guess I will start off with Hi, and then get into the mud. So far we have no idea what the Dr at St Vincent are going to do about Donny's neck. Still bothering him all the time. He has an appointment on September 3rd with the neck Dr up there. For his National Guard, they are going to release him which chaps my hide but what can you do. We are going to have to figure something else out. For Vincent he is not looking forward to school starting which I don't blame him since he has trouble fitting in. We barely got to stay in his school and they did not tell me that I needed to fill out paper work since we are passed the school boundaries. For Trinity she had to have her labs done this Monday since her Prograf levels were too high, they still have not contacted me to let me know what to do. I am also fuming since my regular Doc did not call to let me know that she was going to be a way for 4 weeks on vacation, now they are trying to change things.... For me I am trying to stay as calm as I can. *Sigh* OK anyways that is it for the complaining now... dare I say the words...nope. God please bless me and my mess.

Oops Forgot To Post In Awhile!

Things are going pretty smooth with Trinity. Today she was at Doernbecher's again for her Pentamidine infusion and that went ok. She only got poked once, but the day started out her getting undressed for the weight check and then proceeding to potty all over the floor. She then got half way through her Infusion until she got sick all over the bed. Other than those minor things it went ok. She popped her molar right tooth in before her eye teeth which to me is odd, but it happened. No way am I sticking my fingers in her mouth (unless it is an emergency, and yes I have been bitten by her and it doesn't feel great!) She still is a stable 20lbs but finally got into 12 month clothes just a month ago. She is a great eater though, loves eggs and waffles and also ice cream. I have pictures that I will post up here in a bit, I think everyone that sees will get a kick out of it, and also her talking on my old cell phone. Well that's all I have for now. Enjoy the new photos, and God Bless.

Live, Laugh, Love,

So Far... Doing Ok

Hi again. Well isn't the weather nice but way too hot! I hope everyone has their A/c's going in their houses or vehicles. We went to buy one but it was 1 inch to big for any of the windows so we are out of luck and using fans at the moment. Well Trinity's Doernbecher appointment went well. Got in and out pretty fast, was just the hot drive home was not fun. Donny on the other hand is still in a pretty good amount of pain and the pills he is taking are not working worth a darn, so we have no idea what is going to go on with him. Today we heard from his Brother that is in AIT traning for the National Guard. He graduated July the 3rd from Basic Traning at Fort Jackson ,Sc then went to Fort Sill in Oklahoma. He gets to come home August 18and he can't wait to come home since we are redoing his Toyota truck. Other than that nothing much going on. Vincent wants to go back swimming in the pool and go fishing with his Grandpa this summer, so we will see how that goes. Well that is all I have. Stay Cool Everyone! God Bless

Donny Update

Hi there. Well we went up there to St Vincent Hospital and got in on time. THey took him back there and with in 15 minutes they had some news. 1 is that they are giving him a steriod that is pill form, and if that doesn't work then they are going to give him an injection in his neck of the same steriod. If that does not work they are going to do surgery and see if they can fix the problem and there is a 10% chance that it could not work and that they would have to fuse the bones togeather. So we are going one after the other, oh and if his hand and/or fingers go numb then he needs to go back to the Dr's. office and then they will instantly do surgery. So that is the news on him. On me I did not get a chance to go to the Gyno due to unexpected problems (coughs) so....... I get to wait longer now!!! That's all for now folks.

New Update

Hello again. We finally have some news on what is going on with Donny. He is going to a Neurosurgeon tomorrow at 1:15 to see if he needs surgery on his ruptured disk or not. Other than that there is no more news. Trinity will be going to Doernbechers on Monday for a whole panel lab draw and her Pentamidine infusion, and the infusions will end in November. She now says "ball, Elmo and Up" really well and she loves to learn. She also likes to still help unfold laundry and get into the cabinets still. Vincent is healing from a bad sunburn still from last month, and I am just trying to keep it all together and trying to stay sane!!! I will update tomorrow what is going on with Donny when I hear something.

Update On Our Family

Hello all. I have had this for a while but never posted on it since I forgot but I thought it was time to update everyone on our Family starting with Donny. He was injured and his neck muscles were strained and went to our PCP and he decided he needed an MRI so we went to Tigard and had one done. That was last Wednesday and they called our PCP back and told them that he has a severe ruptured disk in his back and he needs surgery on it pronto. So that is going on and also had a x-ray on his knee last month and he has a calcified bone floating around there and needs that taken out and we are still messing around with that mess since they got the date wrong of injury and had to sign the paperwork again. Ok off to me. I am having massive girl problems and am going to my Gyno to see if I have Pre Cancerious Cells or worse going on. I am freaked out since that seems to run in the family but I know whatever happens, it is for a reason. Now to Vincent, he is doing well and growing everyday, he finally got his traning wheels off as of yesterday and he is so excited that he can ride with out them ( I know it is really late in the game but we had no time when Trinity was going in and out of sugery lol). Then last but not least we have little miss Trinity. She is doing great her lab work looked good last Monday and she is going in for blood draws now 1x every other week which is great for me and my sainity!! Well running out of room.
