Sick of School Already
The one thing I hate about the kids being back in school - they bring home every virus possible, and I catch it. Blech. They’ve only been back in school for two weeks, and already both kids have had a stomach/cold bug, and passed it onto me. Joy.
Both are back in school today after having missed Monday and Tuesday this week.
Tuesday was Maegan’s second appointment with the psychologist. He gave her the TOVA test (Test of Variables of Attention). It was pretty bad, but she did really well, I thought. I think she concentrated better than I might have, actually. She is definitely ADHD though. Dr A (the psychologist) is supposed to mail her results and his recommendations to Dr G (medical doctor). Then Dr G will have us come in and discuss our options as far as meds are concerned. Dr A did give me a printout on this new med for ADHD (Vyvanse) and told me to try and get Dr G to prescribe it if possible. Apparently it has a longer duration than a lot of the older drugs. Which means only medicating once a day before school instead of several times a day which would mean Maegan taking medicine at school as well as at home. I’d rather not have to do that if we don’t absolutely have to.
