    I am married to a wonderful Marine and a mother of 5 darling children. Sniper has been home from his second tour in the Shitbox since July 2006. This will be my rants, raves and rumblings with my life with him as a Marine Wife, him dealing with life post Iraq and the Marine Corps next adventure for us. At times I may whine, I may cry and there maybe times I just don't make any sense and you think WTF. These are my feelings and my feelings alone. If you don't like what I have to say, click the "X" in the right corner and move on. Thank a vet for having that choice. If not, sit back and enjoy the peak into my crazy world.

    My House is Infected with the Plague

    Can I wake up and it just all be gone....BUGS BE GONE!!!!

    I swear my house has to be the most contaminated house around. Yesterday, Drama Queen goes to the bathroom and starts yelling there is worms in the toilet. WTF. Being mom, I have to check it out. Sure enough there is 2 white thread like worms floating in there. (That was absolutely disgusting. The yuck factor is way high here.) I get on the internet and do some research (God I love the Internet). It seems that she has Pinworms, "Ass Worms." Again WTF. How the hell did my daughter get this nasty shit.

    I called her doctor and he told me it is common for kids under the age of 12. It's no big deal (my ass, it's f*cking disgustingly gross). To get rid of them everyone in the house has to take a pill and they will be gone. OK, I can sortta deal with that, but I am still way grossed out by all of this. Then he says, everything in the house needs to be washed. All the linens. All of them. Do you know how much f*cking laundry that is? I have piled high in my laundry room at least 20 loads of laundry, that is no exaggeration. I also need to scrub the bathrooms down....duh!

    I was up until 0100 doing laundry last night and have only 9 loads finished and way to many to go. My kids and I have a lot of blankets and comforters on our beds and all of it had to be washed. I swear I will be here all weekend doing laundry.

    My daughter has Ass Worms. Do you know how absolutely disgusting this is? I feel sorry for her, but at least we are trying to laugh at it. She climbs into my bed last night (her bedding wasn't washed yet) and I kept telling her to move her butt over. Don't put that thing near me. What does she do.....scoots closer. Mom I have butt worms. *she laughs hysterically* Ok, I have to have some type of humor in all this. Maybe that will happen next week, but not now.

    Update on Lego Man:
    On Wednesday, I took Lego Man to his doctor's appointment for his tummy. We saw a pediatric Gastrologist. Apparently the doc thinks he has Acid Reflux. With that being said, he wants to do a Endoscopy (put a tube with a camera on the end of it down his throat while he is awake. They will give him some happy meds so he won't care). He wants to make sure the acids in his stomach haven't damaged his esophogaus. Also, he wants to do a biopsy on his stomach tissue and rule out "H. Pylori" The appointment is in a few weeks (they only do them on certain days and the holidays coming up have screwed the scheduling up), but Lego Man is scared to death of the procedure. I don't blame him, I'm worried as well. He did prescribe him Zantac to help him and it does seem to work, but Lego Man doesn't like the pills. At 11 years old he can't swallow pills, he chews them. YUCK! And they taste terrible...duh.

    Ass Worms? Too Coooooooooooolllll!!!!!!!!
    Tell Lego man for me: "You eat bigger chunks of meat and candy than the pills are." I used to couldn't swallow them either. Then I realized that I swallowed bigger chunks of hotdogs. It is all in his psych. Docs want to rule out H.pylori? If it were me, I would hope that they rule it in. It is so damned easy to cure. Acid reflux is something that the doctors can treat, and treat, and treat; and pretty soon they've treated themselves to a big vacation. Remember, Jenn, when you and I go to work, we are expected to know what we are doing. Doctors Practice, and practice, and practice; and as long as the patient has the money, they'll keep right on practicing, and treating. I am more for seeing them do some "Curing". These pompous asses are indignant if we call them on what they do. Like, if you went in and told the doctor that you had read the whole file at the Helicobactor Foundation, and that the tests for H.pylori aren't that difficult to perform. They would have you think that they've got the answers, and that anything that you think cannot count because, after all, they are the "doctors". Jenn, it may seem that this is a crusade of mine, and I suppose that in a way that is correct. I suffered at the hands of doctors giving me Zantac, and all the competitive brands too; for 30 damned years. When the VA doc told me that he could cure me in less than a month, I wondered at his audacity. He was right. One antibiotic, and one zantac type, every day, or possibly twice a day, for two weeks and it is over with. I've recently found the helicobactor foundation, and read everything they've written. Again, fully 98% of supposed "ulcer" problems in this country could be ended forever with this treatment. I am not there, and I don't know the knowledge and experience of your doctor, so I cannot be precise on this, but to say that they would like to rule H.pylori "out" says quite loudly that the doctor is more interested in "treating" Lego man than curing him. I really feel for his pain. It gets so bad that a badass adult would "pray to die" to not have this pain! Lady, this is like "cramps" times 10! Wish there was something I could do to help him.

    hey jenn,

    from a former Medicine Aide, make sure with your pharmacist that the pills LegoMan is chewing are OK to be chewed - and if not, get them to prescribe chewables... it can make a massive difference in how the meds work and are absorbed, etc. and chewing non-chewables can make him sicker.

    sending bugg-less thoughts your way!

    Your situation is not funny. But I'm still laughing at "ass worms".

    Hasn't happened to us yet. YET. I'm sure we just need to give it a little time...
