Dear Sleep, Come Home.

February 8, 2010 Leave a Comment

You’ll be pleased to know in response to the poor quality of sleep in our house, for 4 consecutive nights, due to colds and random screaming I’ve just sent a memo to the boys. It reads: Beloved Boys, Sleep starts at 8pm and no later. We rise around 7am in our home, just after Mommy […]

She-Woman Wednesday

February 4, 2010

Our nanny called in sick yesterday. I felt like a She-Woman (think gender equal of He-man circa 1988) after making it through the day. Maybe it’s more, She-Ra. Between the hours of 7:50am when I got the call and 5:50pm when I sat down to dinner with my little boys I :

Tape Measuring Time

January 31, 2010 5 Comments

I had a great weekend. Nothing truly spectacular happened. I, for the most part, tucked the blog away in my top drawer. I wasn’t on call and didn’t connect into my clinic computer. I tried to be really present with all 3 boys in my house. I played with my kids. We did the typical […]

And then as it turns out, wait lists. I know what it feels like being stuck on a list. Hip deep stuck. Somewhere between the […]

Complex Problem: Raising A Child

January 20, 2010 Leave a Comment

I had the fortune of seeing Dr Atul Gawande speak last week in Seattle. Truth be told, I entirely invited myself. I heard there was a group from the hospital going and I begged my way in. I sat in the corner.  Flashbacks to finding a seat in the junior high cafeteria. I made it […]

Hopes, Dreams, And Predictions

January 4, 2010 Leave a Comment

Twenty Ten, Two Thousand Ten. However you say it, we have arrived. Welcome back to school days. The rigor of productivity. We had the tantrum of the century this AM at our house which we’ve decided to include in our new in-home, Swanson special list of “mega-tantrums.” In medicine, mega is inserted into terminology as […]

Magic

December 23, 2009 1 Comment

Sometimes good health feels like magic.  Lately more than ever.  I’ve had a number of friends and family diagnosed with serious medical problems and medical set-backs in the last few weeks.  Like patients that I have been fortunate enough to care for with serious illness, it scares me, makes me sad, sometimes wakes me up […]
