Nonna, Aiden, and Minnie Mouse Last weekend at Disneyland

Sorry For Yet Another Long Delay

We have been very busy here. They tried to modify my heart again. So we were in LA Tuesday to Wednesday. They burnt at the heart for 5 hours and still no luck. They now believe the arrhythmia is coming from a different part of the heart. So I am going to opt to have that surgery done there again during my spring break.
I know I need to start posting some more so I will I promise. Especially more pistures of Aiden and how he is doing.
My School starts back next Tuesday the 17th. So I will be fairly busy but I will keep up on the updates, Most definatly I want to get the most use out of this beautiful camarea I got.
Looking forward to hearing your comments, Next Time a pic of Aiden

Sorry For the Even Longer Delaly

Life has been absolutely hectic. School, School, School and more School. Even though everyone around here thinks that I do not do anything. Sorry Guys but I just need to vent right now. You know what guys I do not even care if anyone reads this. Oh well! Question if anyone knows the answer please tell me. I am so tired with everything life in general. All the heart problems I have been having and all the lack of support from people that are supposed to love me. I obviously know my marriage is going no where. It is more of a connivance thing. He does not Love me nor do I think the same of my feelings towards him. The problem is I am stuck between a rock and a hard place. I leave him maybe I am happy but financially I am in ruins(well that is if I am already not). I mean do not get my wrong I would never do anything. I love my son way to much and he means the absolute world to me. What do I do? Anyone have any suggestions because I am lost? I already know that his family hates me. Its obvious even though he had plenty of excuses on why they do. Which by all means is fine by me. Believe what they want or whatever he wants.

I just don't know what to do? Its so hard and it seems like my dream of being a nurse is so far away and so expensive. Should I just forget it all and go get a real job. Like Anthony and his mother say.What about him getting a real job. Part of me thinks that all of these newly discovered heart problems were there, they just did not come up because I was more calm.(I don't know if that is the right thing)

All of the DR.'s say that it is just a defect and can easily be fixed. But when I am going to get some support. Does Anthony really think that I want to go to the hospital every 10 days and go through only God knows how many tests to be told all of these scary answers I do not even want to tell my parents about. For some reason he seems to think so! I know you all probably did not want to hear me vent but I am sorry I needed to get some of this out even if no one reads it or no one cares.

On two good notes here is a picture of Aiden at Disneyland with my new camera. My parents helped me to buy a didigital SLR Camera and I am totally in love with it and taking pictures of aiden. I have had it a month and have over 800 pictures of him.

Love to you all, Melissa

Sorry for the Delay

Sorry for the long delay in posting. It has been pretty busy here.

Aiden is still doing swimming lessons and doing wonderful he has come so far in the past 6 weeks of lessons. He will now jump of of the side and doggy paddle to his teacher Erin, he will also go under holding on to the wall, he will push of of the wall and swim a short distance to her, and above all he will jump off the diving board to his teacher willingly it was amazing. 

I can not get my camera to upload onto the computer so no great Angels pictures from the other weekend. I will have Anthony try later. But this is a picture taken by Yvonne the wonderful photographer that did Aiden's pictures about a month ago. I have a few other ones to post that she took too. For all of you close email me for her phone number if you want picture's taken. 

I promise I will post more often.

Aiden and Nonna Baking a Cake

Here are two pictures of Aiden and my mom making a cake. Aiden loves to help in the kitchen. he might just be a chef like his Zio Mimmo! My mom had bought a new baking cook book, so she and Aiden made a cake this evening. We have been doing pretty good staying busy of course. 

Just getting ready to watch the Angels vs. Dodgers game. I really want to go out to Chavez Ravine in LA  this weekend to root my Angels on! I am unsure if we will go or not. We are going to Angel Stadium on July 4th then again on the 6th. 

Yesterday at Ontario Mills I bought Aiden some flip flops and it is so funny because he can not quite walk in them right so he kind of drags his feet along. It's so funny, but he will not take them off. Every waking moment he wants them on. Off to watch the game.  

Aiden and Dora

Sorry for the long delay in posting.

Here is a picture of Aiden and his pet Guinea Pig "Dora" who he named himself after " Dora the Explorer" TV show. 

I took this picture yesterday after swimming.

Aiden loves Dora. He is always wanting to hold her and let her run around his toys.

We have been pretty busy around here. Today we went to Ontario and went shopping for a little while. I bought Aiden some winter clothes from the children's place. We also got tickets for the Angels game on July 6th from our friend Paul. I am so excited it is picture day with the players. So I will for sure post some awesome pictures after. 

Today was Aiden's last day of swimming lessons for this session, but I signed him up for the next session. This time with a semi-private lesson with his favorite teacher Erin. Aiden also jumped off the diving bored today, but Anthony did not get a picture of it I was so sad. Ok, Aiden did not jump willingly it took a lot of coxing and he screamed but I am glad that he did it. My goal after this next set of lessons is for him to jump to her willingly. Hopefully after lessons are over for the summer he will be able to swim a little. I just wish we had a pool.   Till later! I will post more tomorrow!

SICKO

Yesterday, Anthony, my dad and I watched the movie SICKO by Michael Moore. What an eye opening  documentary that was. I recommend that if you can watch it to do so. You will not believe what is in the movie. It is about Healthcare in the United States and how other countries including CUBA have a lot better medical care than we do. Pretty Shocking!!!

Sorry no picture right now I do not have any new ones to post. Yesterday we pretty much just sat around all day. We did go to Target that was the extent of doing anything. It is just too hot, you do not even want to leave your house. Today is back to swimming lessons for Aiden, this is the lat week but I am thinking about signing him up again for another 2 weeks. Well I am off to go get ready before my dad gets back with Aiden, they went together for a ride to the bank. I will try to post some pictures tonight.
