I am not writing in a journal right now, but I had to put into words my thoughts for today.
My little boy Nathan is my heart and I want the best for him. Today was the first time I felt hope for him. To give you some background- each day I wait to hear how his day at school was. I want so badly for it to go well for him- that he would feel confident about how it went. There have been many days when he felt that he had a great day- and let's be honest, that is all that matters.Today, however, I looked at his teacher and asked how his day was. With a smile on her face she said he made it through the entire day, got all his work done and didn't need any help. This was a first. Even if he had good mornings, after lunch would always be difficult for him. He has been on some form of medication for almost a month now and I think we finally have the right meds and dosage for him (for now).
Not only did he have a good day at school, but he came home and was able to do homework and play all the other stuff he does in the afternoon and it was effortless and without tears. I am on my knees in thanksgiving to God for this day. I pray that this continues and that if there are any negative side effects- that they be minimal and that the good will outweigh them.
