Original Text of an E-mail from Douglas to Family/Friends
Today was a fairly quiet day. Alexandria had a good morning, no episodes and she had a good night as well. Things were stable enough that I actually went into the office in the afternoon for a few hours. I am taking a partial FMLA leave from work, which means I can be at home when needed and also work a few hours here and there. This allows me to spread my FMLA days out so when she does not have stable days I can stay home without worrying about losing my job. It was not easy to leave the house, it was the longest time I was away from her since her birth. Everyone at work has been very supportive.
Harry and Gretta arrived and helped us throughout the day. After they arrived at noon is when I headed into the office, so Kim always had back-up support here. Gabriel and Ethan were especially interested in her today, as the picture below shows. Gabriel knows to be very gentle, Ethan, not so much… so we keep him at a distance.
