Starting last night Ricki started having some pretty severe hot flashes. She has experienced these for almost a year now and they come and go. The hot flashes came and went all through the night and made it so she couldn't sleep. When I have hot flashes (which is normal for my age) it is sad when my young teenage daughter is able to quickly recognize when I am having one because she totally relates! Bless her sweet heart! She continued to have them all throughout the day and her chest hurt to the point she had a hard time breathing, and to top it off she was nauseous. The drs don't seem to think there is a problem but, She does have a tumor by her pituitary gland and I sure wonder if that isn't what is causing it but we are in the watch and wait game so in the meantime I will watch my daughter bravely face her daily challenges and Ricki will patiently wait for a cure.
Sometimes like tonight my heart just aches. Ricki went to dance tonight but called to come home early.. When she climbed in the car 
all she said was "Sometimes I just wish I could be normal."
Hopefully, tomorrow will be a better day.
