Second year Day 204 - Friday July 5, 2013

I called about the Robaxin and Walgreens said they were still waiting to hear back from Michelle Helwig.  I tried the office and they were closed from Wednesday at noon until next Monday and apparently the prescription didn't get approved before they closed.  So, Bridgett will do without the Robaxin until we can get our hands on some more, hopefully Monday.  Bummer!  It does seem to help when she takes the Robaxin (muscle relaxant). However, as I have mentioned before, when we use it very much, Bridgett's kidneys start to hurt.  So, we save it for when the pain is pretty bad.  Initially, they told us that Bridgett would have a lot of speech difficulties, because of the nature of her injury.  Well, she really had very little problems actually.  It has taken a while for her to remember things, but she had no "speech problems" per se.  But, talking about remembering the names for things.  As far as common things go, she it at the point where she remembers the names of things very well.  She still doesn't have her full memory back yet, but that's coming slowly.  But, I'm always surprised when she can't name common things.  Like today.  We went shopping and she saw some avocados and wondered what they were called.  Hummmm....
