GRIFFIN NEEDS SURGERY

[@Cindyslittletreasures]

That is one of the most difficult things about being non verbal. He is in my prayers.❤

[@brischmick]

You found an answer for Griffin’s increased irritability- dental pain! So glad y’all have a plan! And adore the little girls dancing! And a shopping break… I need this vicariously through you. We need to see more of this example of mom is self care especially with a large family and special-needs. And I love the idea of bringing respite in to care for your twins while y’all hit the polar Xpress again this year with the younger girls… How much fun! And we all need something to look forward to. Always love your content keep up the good work XOXO

I’m so glad you got to the bottom of why Griffin was out of sorts! It really was out of character for him to be acting like that. I’d been thinking of you since your last video, so I’m really glad you were able to upload to update us on him. He must’ve been in so much pain, poor little guy. I hope he can make it to 10th. We have specialised dentists here in the UK just for children & adults like Griffin who do clinics 5 days a week in hospital, my old dentist used to do 2 of the clinic days, she was wonderful. Sending lots of healing vibes to griffin 💗 We call Home Goods / HomeSense here in the UK! It’s such a big mixing bowl of delightful goodies, you could literally spend all day browsing lol. Oh my god how adorable are those outfits for the girls, that DRESS!! Why do they not do it in adult size, I’d absolutely wear it! X

I clench my jaw due to severe anxiety and PTSD. I ended up cracking a molar and it had to be pulled. The pain leading up to it was horrendous. I feel his pain. I can’t wait for him to get relief!

[@EHoughtonCO8]

Oh, and I got a nightguard but it’s so hard for me to keep it in.

[@jeanwinders9556]

Flashback to the 80's fashions. I'm curious how long did Will's CNA course take, does he work outside of the house and would he recommend changing careers? Your kids are always dressed so lovely.

[@kathleenharris2239]

What wonderful children you have.I loved seeing the big kids talking about their heights! ❤️❤️They’re getting so big. And the girls and dance…..so sweet.💕💕You should be so proud of the way you are bringing them up( I know you’re proud of them).Love you had time to yourself and you got to do some Halloween shopping! Been praying that Griffin is ok until his surgery.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Prayers going up for griffin

[@beautifulvictory9683]

I had tooth pain. Needed a root canal. Had to wait til Monday. N@rcotic worthy pain! For an adult, I took 1 8hour Tylenol & 2 ibuprofen at the same time. Nonetheless, taking Tylenol & ibu together is metabolized by 2 different organs & extends relief to separate pain receptors. It's safe to do. Saved me big time.

[@cherylhoggan19]

So extremely glad that you where able to find out the source of what was causing Griffin, to act the way he did. Emily, that little dress, that you showed last, is sooo cute, I Hope we will get to see it on, in one of the vlogs. I will keep Griffin in prayer, that the medicine will continue to work, the 10th October, is a long ways off still.

[@kathleenjbazan5563]

Poor sweet Griffin, you just knew something was up. Mom’s know best, I just can’t imagine how he must have been hurting. Tooth pain, and when the nerves are affected is terrible. I hope he gets some pain relief soon.

[@beckiebarham9230]

Those are collars like we added to our dresses or tops in the 80's!! 😆

[@phillisob]

This was the most extreme I've seen her apraxia (which my little also has), but you did such a great job responding!

[@thatsreality5673]

Mothers intuition right again I see you knew something wasn’t right and you were proved right Poor Griffin he must be in so much pain bless him hope the painkillers are still working and he gets it sorted soon

[@Kittkat1980]

Hope you get Griffin's teeth fixed soon and I will be praying for you and him

[@nancycoy9510]

You always dress your kids so cute. The girls seem to really enjoy the dance classes.

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

I wish Griffin & you weren't going through this dental pain, but I'm relieved you have answers & a treatment plan.

[@carolfink3991]

POOR GRIFFIN HE IS IN MY PRAYS I HOPE THE MEDS WORK FOR HIM.

[@lindadobberstein2035]

I wonder if Griffin chewing on those objects hanging around his neck are cracking his teeth. You said he has a lot of strength. I would look into that before he gets his permanent teeth.

[@tazzi2003]

Cracking up on the scene with the collars😂

[@amandaolsen8555]

Adderreal can be life changing for some kids. It has been so good for my child. But I know it’s not for everyone. I’m glad it’s helping.

[@Danielleb723]

He is probably more sensitive than the dentist realizes. But a Mom always knows best.

[@fionascheibel977]

It appears the way neuro divergent brains process pain may be very different to typical brains and so it is possible poor Griffin could have experienced that pain in every nerve ending of his body and so it be totally overwhelming I hope there is relief for him super fast.

[@stacisrainbownursery7825]

You’re so funny !!! I love seeing this side of you 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@imlds231]

That is so horrible that Griffin is having to wait so long to get rid of tooth pain!! Why for such a huge area is a dentist only able to utilize the OR once a month!? Are there any other dentists that have access to the OR sooner?? I hope his other teeth do not start decaying from waiting so long. I had to get a tooth pulled and a bridge made. The back tooth kept hurting so had a root canal done. Now the bridge is sitting just right where the front tooth is sensitive with any air (it is loose. I gotta wait til Thursday to tell the dentist bc i do not have time to go) Try getting some numbing medicine (KANKA gel is the best IMO) Not sure if you are rotating pain meds? Typically for his age i would give tynenol, 2-3 hrs later motrin etc. They have teething tablets some give babies, unsure what age they are for. My brother gave his last 2 kids them. Best of luck to everyone. Poor Griffin is also not sleeping hardly because of pain... which probably is effecting his emotions along side the pain. (Hugs)

[@karalee6522]

Maybe Griffin would like one of those beatbox sound boards for a Christmas present.

[@MichelleBrooks-51127]

Praying for Griffin 🙏❤

[@foofookachoo1136]

That Harrison boy-he is getting more handsome by the day!! Is going to break some hearts, I tell ya!!

[@cherylperich8368]

Just wondering - could Griffin go to an oral surgeon? Oral surgeons do the surgery in their office - with either a local or general anesthetic. Seems like you are having to wait a long time for the dentist to be able to use the OR.

[@aliciakillen1940]

I’m shocked that here in Colorado Springs they can only get the OR ONCE a month! Ridiculous, especially since dental pain is soooooo freakin painful! Can you maybe drive to Denver and get it sooner?? Just an idea? I couldn’t wait till my twins were old enough to speak because as a mom it’s so hard when they can’t tell us what’s wrong. You having TWO basically non verbal kiddos has to be so frustrating and scary at times. Hope G gets that darn surgery sooner than you expect!

[@albussnape2]

Yes to Polar Express!! 👏 Glad Griffin is getting some relief, and hope surgery goes well! Does he grind his teeth? I know he has stimulation (stim) from chewing objects. ❤️ to all. Cute clothes!

[@jenniferwinschel9982]

Hi I love your family ❤

[@phantom_phobia14]

14:00 & up i was laughing at emily the whole time 😂

[@Lo-nk7jl]

[@tanagiberson4770]

have you thought about putting Griffin in music 🎶 🎵 therapy

[@GuilloryFamily]

Poor guy, dental pain is the worst!

[@tiffanyjohnson7876]

Oh no prayers ❤

[@simplyshannon9053]

I am dying that maroonish dress with the checkered leggings you got the girls is the CUTEST!!!

[@AuntieSarahof9]

My 9 year old is just as tall as Harrison! She turned 9 in August.

[@chaoticwhenever1457]

I fully have children’s bedding in a queen size at 23. I’m young at heart lol

[@bevindolan9296]

We had no idea until the whole side of his face swelled up

[@Cindyslittletreasures]

Can he answer questions with his eyes, like look up for no and blink twice for yes?

[@daniellemurphy6773]

LINDY IS TALKING ALOT MORE

[@bevindolan9296]

Maybe he cracked his molars because he is grinding his teeth he could have infection my son grinds and he got an infection and abcess

[@katiz1114]

Sweetie you need to get out more.

[@elizabethpecina4426]

Would Griffin be more comfortable at home until surgery, less worry for you perhaps, maybe

[@barbaraflowers3308]
