Peek-a-boo |
Tough day today. Heather kept giving me news that I didn’t want to hear, that she didn’t want to tell me. Leaks of fluid from our sons stitches in his head, a surgery on Monday to put in a permanent shunt (which means probably about a week more of Heather and my boy in the hospital), a doctor contradicting other doctors and nurses. A day of total bad news all day, and then she called me on FaceTime. I got to see my son smile at me over and over again. After that I felt so much better.

I didn’t get much done today, because I could barely think about anything other than my poor boy’s head. I miss them so much. By the time I got to see him smile, the day was pretty much over. I felt like vegging out for awhile, so my friend Stefan let me borrow his NES and Sega Genesis systems. I already beat my favorite Nintendo game, Bases Loaded 3. I also taught my 4 year old baseball freak how to play, which was a ton of fun.
All-in-all, I’m trying to make it through this difficult time, it’s not easy…but I can’t pretend like everything is normal. A father is not equipped to take care of 4 girls 6 and under by himself. But I am thankful that everyone in our family is healthy, especially our son after all of this. We are going to get through all of this and get back on track. I cannot wait.
