Okay so Angelina started HBOT on Monday 10/26 and she is doing quite well with it. The tech told me that they would do the first "dive" to see how she handles it and if she can clear her ears then we would discuss payment. Well she did very well, in fact she didn't even act like she noticed it at all! She was staring up at the TV in amazement like she was thinking "how'd that get up there??" That was that! I turned over the payment and now we are on the stick for 3 more weeks! Angelina has a good time in the chamber watching a movie or taking a quick snooze. I was sort of surprised that she acclimated herself so well and so quickly! Such a big girl she is!! It took almost 1.5 hours to get home and I was tired from all the rain and the day and was not looking forward to making dinner. I swear somebody upstairs likes me a little because Larry called to tell me that his mom brought dinner for us - hamberger pie and salad! I was so happy that kind of made the rain not suck so bad!
Yesterday we had a bit of a vehicle issue. Larry made out this nice pallate in the back of the van for Angelina to nap on while she was having her lunch and since it was warmer yesterday we needed some airflow. Not remembering that having the electric on in the car while the engine is off drains the battery (I was just concerned about the temp in there and my girly) I proceeded to completely kill the battery. NOW in my defense, I called Larry to check in with him and had he answered the phone or called me back before a whole hour passed by all this could have been avoided because I would have told him what I was doing and he would have told me about the whole battery dying thing. BUT he didn't call me back or text me back for an hour or so. Luckily some random guy must have heard the ticking of my dead car as I tried to turn her over and tapped on my window advising me that my battery was dead....ummm thank you I'm perfectly aware my car is dead. As it would turn out he helped me get the car jumped off. I started off the day saying a short prayer to keep us safe and get us home safely. Nevermind that he had just come from the Jason's Deli for lunch - with his AA group - he told me that he had 3 sisters and would hope that someone would help them out. Who was I to question the package my help was delivered in?? It was kind of awkward because I was holding Angelina (she hadn't gone back in for her 2nd dive just yet) and needed to take her back to the HBOT office but didn't want to lose this guy's help. God works in mysterious ways. He assured me that he would wait for me to come back. When I came back there were people showing up to help and I had no clue how they knew it was me that needed the help, but they knew. Now I thought I had jumper cables because I had purchased some specifically for an occasion such as this but they were nowhere to be found. I call Larry to find out just where they are and he says they are in the garage by his car. Of course they are. Luckily one of the girls in the HBOT office had cables and let me use them. Longer story shortened, we got the van started and it took us home an hour later! Yeah!
Cirstyn went with us today and needless to say we did not stay in the van for naps we used the HBOT's office family room since no one else was using it. All went well and we look forward to a good visit tomorrow!
