The night before Seth's doctor's appointment, we had this conversation:
Me: "We're going to your doctor tomorrow."
Seth: "Which doctor?" No fear, just curiosity.
Me: "Your ADHD doctor."
Seth: Gasp! "Is he going to take it out?!"
Me: No adequate response as I lamely remind him it's not something they can take out and that he'll have it forever.
Seth: "Oh. OK."
Even though his ADHD is not who he is, it's a part of what has made him become who he is, and it will continue to help shape and mold him in the future.
Some days, yes. I want it out.
Some days, we're good. We got this. For real.
And all the days in between? Well. Chocolate can do amazing things to settle a woman's nerves.
