After much debating, praying and seeking counsel from close friends and family, I have decided to NOT return to work in May. While I can live with the regret of leaving my dream job without guarantees of being able to return with things have settled with Felipe. I would not be able to live regretting that I didn't do everything possible for Felipe. I will miss the practice of law, my clients, my coworkers, and the crazy smells of the courtroom. But on to tackle physical therapy, advocating w insurance company approving medical procedures, and daily house hold chores and Felipe treatment schedule. So far, after 5 months, I'm slowly in a routine of:
Wake up and clean before Felipe awakes
wake up Felipe
feed Felipe
put Felipe in stander for 30 minutes
take Felipe out, massage
Change Felipe into street clothing
Let Felipe crawl 30 minutes
take felipe to swim
lunch in stander
nap
physical therapy
make phone calls to medical providers for follow up
make phone calls regarding house hold issues
(let Felipe crawl during phone calls)
Put Felipe in stander as I cook dinner
Dinner
Bath
Sleep for Felipe
Check emails for follow up with early intervention/medical providers
Clean up after Felipe
Go to sleep (11pm)
I might consider picking up the habit of drinking coffee, I need all the energy I can muster up!!!
