Kody was being irritable yesterday. He woke up at maybe 12:30pm and his face seemed a bit fuller. Yes that means it was puffy. Mental note to let the cardiologist know of this when we go on the 28th of this month. His eat habits are getting more and more finicky. He ended up having pizza rolls for lunch which is not what I expected. Especially since he has been on this chicken nugget kick for a while but hey as long as he ate something that's all that matters really. Then dinner time comes along and I make meatloaf in which he asked me to make sure it wasn't dry. (Only dry meatloaf I have made was the turkey loaf which they liked.) Okay so I made dinner and served up plates and he won't eat it. The only thing he would eat was the mashed potatoes I made as a side.

On the upside he reconnected with some friends from his old middle school. I asked him if he would like me to search up a few names from the book of names and emails he had from the going away party and he said yes. Hopefully that gives him an outside connection with people he knew before the homebound began. What I would give to have him back in a regular classroom ... yes even if that meant working extra hard to wake him up and get him ready for the day. He told me last night that he doesn't want to do the high school portion of school. I ended up telling him that he can't quit because he doesn't like the route in which schooling will be done. You see he has to switch to teleclasses because of it being high school curriculum which means 1:1 wouldn't cover everything. We will approach things as they come though. Right now he is still in bed.

Turned in his camp application which hopefully will mean he has a week away at camp this summer. This would be an opportunity for him to not only be around other kids but also be able to do other things that he can't right now. I am going to email the coordinator for the MDA and see if we can get something in the works for a new manual and electric wheelchair for him. The ones he has right now just need replacing.
