Hi Roist, Bttrfly and Bright :0)

D14 had a great weekend. No symptoms what so ever. We have her MRI today so it should answer a few more questions. I lucked out, usually its a 2-3 month wait for an MRI. The nurse I spoke to put us in an empty slot, she whispers into the phone , don't tell anyone you were fast tracked.

The more we know whats going on with D14 the better. I still believe its anxiety. She is a strong girl but bottles so much up inside. Nothing like me or D16. Lets get the physical tests done to be sure then we can work on the psychological.

It was a last warm weekend and I was able to get a few more outside jobs completed. Also all the decorations outside and in are complete. Bring on Christmas :-) I do the whole house, back and front. Similar to Chevy Chase Christmas vacation except no lights on the entire roof , that's nuts. The girls are so proud of the house, it's the brightest one in town that's for sure.

No news from XW since her " Ok thanks " message about me informing her about her D14 being not well a week ago. No concern for her health. like Job says. They can't take care of themselves how could they possibly take care of others or have concern for them.

It will just be added to the remorse she may feel when she evolves into the new and improved her... right ? lol

Oh, and I had a very proud moment. My D16 graduates high school nest year. We had photos taken (Pre-grad). A little tear up moment. D16 is so happy to be nearly finished. Looking to going into psychology. To help abandoned children. She feels the specialist she talk to about her mom were not helpful at all. They didn't really listen to her at all.

all in all

things are good
moving forward :-)

Hi bttrfy

D14 is doing ok. I did get the results back from her tests. Blood work shows everything is fine.

MRI showed something different. She has a cyst on her brain :-(

I am seeing a specialist with her as soon as they can fit us in. This wasn't the news i was expecting. They said cyst and not tumor so that is good. The cyst however is causing pressure and it explains her symptoms.

I updated XW ( she never messaged me to find out how D14 is this whole time. Even after I told her that she needed the MRI. I mean, this is a brain scan not a cavity in her tooth.

I know , I know.. XW can't handle more than her makeup in the morning and maybe sugar in her coffee. But it makes me sick to my stomach.


I messaged XW once I got off with the doctor. A clear message saying that the MRI showed a cyst and a specialist will have to look at the scan to determine if they need to operate or not.

Did i get an answer from XW... Nope. message said read but no response. I know.. don't expect too much from her..

So I added a message because I was fuming and needed to let off some steam. why not on her.

I tell her she makes me sick to my stomach, that her D14 is not well and may need surgery. That she has not once asked me or them how they were doing in all this. Especially D14 who's health is begin looked at. How selfish she is and that she forgot all about what we founded our family on was Kids first. Told her to go to hell.

She replies.

The girls want nothing to do with me. I let you guys live your life.


ugggggghhhh I won't reply. Just needed to vent.

I sat down with D14 and explained everything. She is strong and I explained the difference between a tumor and a cyst. That many people are born with cysts, some develop them and others have them without even knowing. She is good and said to me. Then nothing to worry about.

I have faith this will all be nothing and even if she needs to drain the fluid from the cyst. It needs to be done and we move forward.

have a good weekend everyone. My plans to visit the city xmas lights still goes on. The girls need to do some more shopping and Sunday a horse ride for me and D16

wow - all I can say is, that it's a measure of how sick your ex is, that she's not thinking about your daughter but just herself. She's either very mentally ill or drug addicted. Quite sad.

I don't know what to say.

As a woman, I have never understood a mother to walk away from her kids. All I can say is that she is either very, very ill or just darn right selfish.

You are one amazing Dad......your girls will never forget this. For shame on her.

She is the one that will have to live with this....I pity her.

Just got a text from her . Wanting my D14 doctors name.
I gave it to her.

D14 didn't hear from her at all. Doesn't expect to either.

Off to the clinic to get the scan and the referral to see the specialist . Hopefully things move fast
