Eye ptosis, deadlines, and trying to breathe

 

So I haven’t been posting as much as I’d like to.

For that, I’m going to blame a guy named Marcus Gunn.

Okay, I actually can’t blame Marcus Gunn because he discovered this ptosis that has plagued my daughter since birth and baffled every single doctor we’ve seen.

Maybe I should start at the beginning.

My youngest daughter has been a handful since conception.

Fertility treatments to even get pregnant with her, combined with a difficult pregnancy then a birth and aftermath that had me close to meeting my maker and I knew my little hurricane would keep me on my toes forever.

One of the things we started noticing about Youngest since birth was that when she yawned, cried, or sucked, one eye would get bigger and pulsate while the other got smaller.

We asked our doctor about it in North Carolina and he referred us to an eye specialist, but then we moved to Texas so we waited. But finally saw an eye doctor who said she thought it was just habit at this point and she’d grow out of it.

So we didn’t worry for a while.

Then during preschool, one day she came home and told me it hurts when one eye gets bigger and smaller. So we went back to the eye doctor who referred us to a pediatric eye nerve specialist in Dallas.

I tried not to worry and just figured “Okay, she’ll get glasses.”

We go to the doctor and he nonchalantly goes “Oh yeah, that’s Marcus Gunn Jaw Wink Ptosis.”

Um, what?

Turns out there’s a nerve that goes from your eyes to your jaw and This disorder is also referred to as “Inverse Marcus Gunn Phenomenon”. Oral-Facial-Digital Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder. In patients with Type III of this syndrome, upon movement of the lower jaw, the eyelid involuntarily and rapidly raises, causing the eye to open wider. (Referenced from here where you can also see photos and read more).

I asked if he could fix it and he said it’s not something that should bother her and we’d keep an eye on it if it actually does hurt or she’s just noticing it.

Because another problem with this (more on this later as well) is that it’s considered cosmetic so it wouldn’t be covered by insurance even if we did want to get it fixed. We’d have to fight it.

Just like what happened next as the doctor pulled out some little magnifying glasses and measuring sticks to tell me her eyes were out of alignment and that she’d need eye surgery.

Come again now?

He showed me where her eyes didn’t line up, something I’d always noticed with her “crazy eyes” and we always thought she was doing it on purpose.

So I reluctantly agreed to surgery and then went to check out, paying an amount that made me cringe since we hadn’t met our deductible then told we had to get this all approved by our insurance before they’d call us to schedule surgery.

Yeah. Insurance rules the world.

We didn’t know how much they’d cover if any since there’s a fine line if eye surgery is considered cosmetic or needed. IE LASIK was considered cosmetic so I couldn’t get that covered.

So then we waited for a call from the scheduling office, which of course gave us more time to look up strabismus surgery and Marcus Gunn and for me to worry.

At this point, I was in between deadlines for Irish on The Rocks and Love Like Crazy, trying to work while wondering what was going to happen next and when we’d get the surgery scheduled. Not to mention that both my kids were in softball so every night was spend at a game or practice with them as I tried to work and hope no one got hit in the face with a ball.

Finally, the doctor’s office called to schedule the surgery the Friday of Memorial Day weekend and said Insurance would cover 90 percent but we also hadn’t fully paid our 5K deductible.

There were a lot of big expenses swimming in my brain, along with thinking ‘Shittake, I need to get some books out to help cover these expenses!’

Also, it should be noted, in the middle of all of this, my dryer broke TWICE. We had a repairman come out to fix it TWICE because with newer dryers it’s harder to do on your own. After the second time, and I wrote another check he advised to look at getting a new dryer if it broke again.

This was when my husband and I sat down and talked about expenses and my writing job and decided I’d take a break from traveling to signings and focus on getting the books out there. This is also why I used the money to hire a PR firm to help so I could write (when the kids let me) and try not to worry about everything else while I stayed up on a deadline, taking breaks to look up surgery information.

Then, finally, surgery day came. We had to leave for Dallas at 5 am, dropping my Oldest off with the neighbors to get on the bus.

Youngest had her new Star Wars pajamas on and was excited to eat ice cream afterward.  Until they gave her medicine and told her she had to take those pajamas off for surgery.

There was crying and more screaming when they had to wheel her back for surgery, so of course, I tried not to break down until we were in the waiting room for the longest fifteen minutes of my life.

Then the doctor came out and told me to breathe. That she did perfect.

We were able to go back and see her again after about twenty more minutes where she cried and told me it was ‘ouchie’. So I held her in my lap while she ate a popsicle then napped the entire car ride home.

Most kids are tired all day or just want to lay around.

My Youngest is a GD superhuman.

I had to yell constantly for her to stop rubbing her face in the dog’s fur or to stop jumping on the bed.

We were told she’d be tired and not want to eat. NOT MY KID.

She also ate about five pieces of pizza and kept trying to play with rocks in the yard (you know when they told us not to let her play in the sand!).

It’s hard to keep her down even when I see her squinting and I force her to turn off TV or put on sunglasses. But it’s been the biggest relief, after our post-op, to know that everything went perfectly.

You know…until more bills come in.

Which is why this last week, between surgery, I managed to finish two more books to get out in June and September. Between all the sleepless nights it’s all led to a happy, healthy little girl with a “magic eye” as we like to call it.

She’ll start kindergarten and we know other kids may mention her ptosis, so we’ve had a lot of talks about it. But I know, I’ve done everything in my power to make sure she’s happy and confident.

If that means I put aside work until she goes to bed to get a book done, I do it.

If it means writing and keeping a work at home mom job so I can be there for surgeries or whatever else curve balls life throws at us, I do it.

It’s not every day I can be supermom, but I hope my kids at least think I’m cool enough to try.

New Release Endorsements, cocky addition. 5/8/18

 

My Fellow Readers,

 

Today in addition to my usual new release endorsements, I want to discuss the issue that has been plaguing the book community as of late.

My fellow readers, it’s time to get #cocky .

To give you an explanation, an author has applied for a trademark of the word cocky and how it is stylized and used on book covers. Because of this, other authors are already having their books removed from Amazon.

My fellow readers, as an author for the readers, I have to say I’m usually a fan of alphas who aren’t assholes. And one of the biggest things I’ve learned from reading and writing alphas is that there is a fine line between cocky and confidence.

A confident person knows what they’re doing is stellar. They don’t need the praise, they just have it. A cocky person doesn’t know that what they’re doing is stellar and needs the praise to continue going.

My fellow readers, I can tell you that I’m confident in what I bring to you each week in these new release endorsements is going to #makereadinggreatagain . That today, my fellow readers, we will band together and pick up a new release. We will all support these confident authors.

Vernon Family Movie Night: Peter Pan

 

I know, I’m behind on posting these, but #life …

And since people do really seem to love these Family Movie Nights, I’m going to try and get some more posted today that I have a back log on.

A big question I get about these movie nights is where do I find the movies?

There are some I can rent from Amazon or Redbox but Disney likes to do this thing called “The Vault” where they pull their movies then end up re-releasing them years later. Which means it’s harder to get some of them, like for example, Peter Pan.

I may have all of these old movies on VHS at my parents’ house, but my parents may be the only people left with a VHS player.

So, naturally, this means I end up renting a ton from the library when I go in there for my weekly stack of books.

And the library is where we found PETER PAN !

 

So let’s start with dinner. One of my easier ones, actually!

 

   

 

I found some Jolly Roger flags and printed them, then cut them before spearing them through a kabob stick to go through our hot dogs, like a pirate ship.

The pretzel cannon balls…well I let the girls help me and they put WAY too much salt and honestly weren’t what I wanted them to be. I’d suggest just buying frozen pretzel balls or even cheese blls.

The golden treasure dip was literally just a can of Rotel and some Velveeta. Helped with the bland saltiness of these pretzel balls.

NOW DESSERT

My brilliant idea this time was to combine a dessert and craft.

We took ice cream cones, frosting, pretzels, and sprinkles all on a plate.

To make it easier, I took a big plastic spoon full of frosting and plopped it on each plate so it could be used for spreading then poured the sprinkles next to it. We each spread frosting on the top, bottom, added some pretzels to the top and wallah! Teepee!

 

After Teepees it was time for our sword fight

 

So I thought it would be fine to trace the swords on card stock and realized they were flimsy so I recommend using cardboard. Then put on a good fight mix so you can keep it short and get to movie watching. This was the one we found to use.

Then of course, movie time, which my five and seven year old both loved!

We have some more Disney movie nights coming up as we count down our trip to Disney world so if you have any suggestions, post them below!

Vernon Family Movie Night: Coco

 

We spent Easter weekend at my in-laws so I asked my MIL if we could have a family movie night and she said it sounded fun. So alas, Coco family movie night was planned!

Some of these items were changed a bit (We added a salad and ended up making cheesecake instead of strawberries since they were out of them at the store, but it still turned out pretty good I think).

 

So lets start with the empanadas, a Weight Watchers recipe. Neither of us have an air fryer so I usually double the baking time in the oven. Still turned out awesome and were eaten by adults and kids! Even Twothy had two!

    

 

After dinner it was time for mask coloring and cutting. The girls wanted to make sure we all wore our masks as well.

  

 

Then it was time for musical chairs. So we could all play I found a video on YouTube that had music with stops in it.

 

And of course, our finale of the night was watching Coco!

We all enjoyed our movie night and here are some links so you can create your own!
