Good News.

Very good news from the specialist. Saley's enlarged lymph nodes on the side of her neck definitely are not indicative of lymphnoma. He is having us take her to have an ultrasound to make sure that they are definitely lymph nodes. And he is having us give her a course of antibiotics that work well on things like skin infections to see if that will shrink that very large lymph node she has had for 2 years.

So a huge weight has been lifted off of our shoulders.

Also, we have found a really small school that does grades prek-12 for Haley. I take her tomorrow to meet the teacher and spend an hour there so she can get use to it. It is a Bible Christian School which would be something new for us but is very small. It has a 6/1 student/teacher ratio. And their cirriculum is mirrored to homeschooling without being at home. This makes me very happy because Haley is extremely smart but she can not learn in a traditional classroom. She needs individualized attention and to be able to learn things that keep her interest. She also needs a caring and loving teacher. Not that public school teachers do not care about their jobs it's just they have so many students and so little time for each individual student.

Plus this school will not hold a child back if they are excelling above the rest of their peers. And also if someone is lagging behind they will not get lost in the transit. The time is spent to help each child excel at their own pace.

I do hope the fact that my DH and I are not church goers will not hurt her being able to attend. The Vice Principle did not say anything to the such but some of the paperwork asks all that type of information.

I will be plainly honest and open with them and just hope they will take it in their hearts to let our daughter in to get the education she needs, craves and so deserves.
