Bear with Me

Did you know that the International Rett Syndrome Foundation has a small window of opportunity to double their money? That's because the Pioneer Fund of Colorado gave the IRSF a grant of $1 million dollars to be awarded when the foundation has matched that amount in fundraising.

This is why I'm willing to be shameless. Especially when it comes to $250,000 for getting the most VOTEs. So, please feel free to sign up for the DAILY EMAIL REMINDER and return to vote every day until the end of June.

You know I'm persistent. You know I'm consistent. You know I will drive you just as crazy as I am until you do. EverySingleDay. Every single one. I will.

You know it.

Please? VOTE

If you are a fact checker-which I applaud-here are your sources:
Wikipedia Synopsis including research developments

Or on the identification of the genetic mutation (one hour long):
    Huda Y. Zoghbi, Howard Huches Medical Institute investigator and professor at the Baylor College of Medicine
    1. At minute 36 the link to some types of mental retardation, balance problems, bipolar
    2. At minute 49:30 how Rett Syndrome Research can help with Autism, Seizures, Mental Retardation and many other disorders and diseases. Identifying the location of the gene expressions for Rett Syndrome symptoms will be of infinite worth to the other conditions.

Finally on the potential of finding a Reversal for Rett Syndrome:
Brain is Poised to Improve

It's Here

We got the moving truck rather unexpectedly. It's more expensive than Mr. Survival planned, so we're doing a lot of lifting, cardio, and squats. No. We're not doing the bootcamp in a trailer. We ARE moving things to the new garage, since we can't move in yet, but they're being kind enough to let us dump in a storage manner. Sorry. I'll have to beg your forgiveness and promise to update you. Eventually.

Flying With Concrete

Today I wanted to write about my dreams. Full of hope and bliss and fulfillment. Yeah, I sound about as light as a bucket of cement. Ready to fly away. Hang on, while I toss out the top of the pile. Maybe that will help me find my lofty aspirations. Nope. Thing is, I'm remembering today that I'm afraid of heights. Really. Once Hubbend made me climb up three stories of scaffolding. Broke it all down for me and left me no other choice. Made me feel irreplaceable. Yes, we must remember that I am crazy friends. Leave it to me to feel important by being told to go up a towering structure of death. I did it though. And I even wired a speaker while I was up there. But I'm still afraid of heights. So. Do you wanna help me out today? For every comment that tells me something someone wants to be able to do that they can't do now I will do one minute of exercise. Really. Because of my child care situation, it will have to be tomorrow morning. So have at it. ...

Hippity Hop

I hope it doesn't matter that it's been a week or so since my post on her...but I do have a fabulous special needs daughter.   THIS   and   THAT   are my most recent musings on Special Needs parenting. I'm not sure what I think about either one. It's about being out in public.   Thanks to Sunday at Adventures in Extreme Parenthood   I can handle this blog hop on a week as crazy as this.  I'm excited to visit all these excellent blogs. Stay tuned next week though, for updates on Chickadee's G-tube surgery, moving and The Beast and it's sugar-free diet.  Thanks for playing along at home. I really couldn't do it without you all. Oh, and visit my Facebook Page to see how my weigh-in went this week for GAG.   **I just figured out that  Super Mommy to the Rescue  and Autism Learning Felt  are the sponsoring blogs.  Please follow them if you link up!
