Thought of the Week

  • "Having OCD is like being allergic to life - every waking moment is spent in a state of mental hyper-sensitivity.”

Why am I returning to this blog after so long?

During this next year, this blog will "document" Devin's OCD, and the improvements she makes. In no way is this blog meant to make anyone feel sorry for our trials. We know that trials are merely blessings in wolves' clothing. Because any improvements will be minor and subtle as the days go by, I want to write it all down so that I can look back and see how far Devin has come. If you are a first-time reader, I suggest you begin by reading this post. It will give you some background and show you a starting point. Comments are welcome, but please be kind. This is not an easy illness to deal with. We're all just doing the best we can.

Day -1

Darin's doing fairly well. He has been on IV fluids since Sunday, following his world record throw up. Today is his Day of Rest. Tomorrow he gets his stem cells. It will take 7-15 days for them to engraft.

My dad died Sunday. I got the news from my sister while I was driving home from the hospital. He died in his sleep in a nursing home. They (my Stepmom and the Bishop) finally talked him into letting them put him in the home on Friday.
