FEAR

I had written a very long detailed post last night about Mariah and her fears. I started adding stuff and accidentally deleted it and went to bed bummed. It was such a raw post about our struggles with Mariah and her anxiety and I had written and shared so much. I ask myself tonight if my accident was Gods way of saying Missy hold back  your shared to much for the world to read. I aways want to be respectful of my family and honest here. This is my journal and I am in no way shape of form embarresed by any of our struggles on our journey through this life.
Mariah had a dentist appointment yesterday and tried to get some much needed work done but was not able to over come her fear. She was in the chair  at least a hour and a half and got many questions answered but after so much crying and anxiety wanted to take all the things they would be using for the procedure to Dr.Toby her Psychiatrist and have a session or 10  and work through it. This was her idea and I thought it was brilliant. She has over come so many obstacles and I truly believe she will over come this also. We know that if Mariah had an emergency with anything dental at this point in her life she would have to go into the hospital so she could be put to sleep in the operating room. We would like for her to be able to have a positive experience and able to go to the dentist like most folks do.
As of one month ago she started sleeping in HER room in HER bed all by herself. This is huge and we are super excited.
Cheers to you and yours.
Missy
