The Funeral . . . Rest In Peace Aunt Kay
I am writing this post from my parents house in Green Bay on dialup. I know that you may be wondering why I haven’t posted in a couple days. Well, Will’s 1st birthday was Saturday, and I will post more about that later. However, I found out on Thursday that my aunt had died after a 14 month battle with lung cancer. We knew it was coming, but it still sucks. I have been trying to figure out how to write this post for a couple of days now.
It was a sad long day. To get back in time, my parents and I left Chicago this morning at 3 am. Its about 8 now, so I am majorly dragging butt. It also was just sad and hard. I am so glad I came up for this. My uncle thanked me as I left tonight, because he knows just how far away I live (the funeral was 5 hours from my house). I wish Bill and the kids could have come up with me, but there was just no way to swing it.
I am not sure if I will be able to post tomorrow. It depends what time I actually get back home. I will be on the bus all day long, then have to take a cab to the train, then take the train to Midway. One of my friends is picking me up at Midway. Wish me luck and please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers.

Will and The Chiropractor
I wrote a couple days ago about being frustrated with the stupid GI specialist who told me babies spit up. Well, Will has been extremely crabby and spitting up a ton (due to the acid reflux and me following the directions of the specialist to overfeed him). I decided yesterday to call my chiropractor and see if I could get him in. They fit him in, and it was the best thing I could have done for him. We noticed that he keeps tilting to the right. Well, low and behold, that is a classic sign of acid reflux. By the time she is done treating him, we should be able to take him off the medicine. She said his back was extremely tight. I also have leg exercises I have to do with him every day. I feel bad for the kid. I guess I should have tried this sooner, but I was giving the doctors a chance to fix this.
