Waiting, patiently

La Jolla, 1998

The good news is that we're now waiting, not for a bed, but for a spot in the infusion center. No overnight hospital stay is an enormous relief. I hate hospitals with all my heart (except the maternity ward). In the meantime, Sophie is having a respite from seizures. You never know what's up with The Girl.

  2. Ah, relief. I love this photo, there is something so full of promise and joy there.

    Off to bed for me, the double vision is making an unannounced and unwelcome visit. Just as well, the weather is lousy. Love to you both.

  3. So darling, you and your dark-haired,
    dark-eyed girl, halfway back from where you are now. It's a lot to know. Layers and layers of stories.

  5. I have been thinking about my response (words of wisdom) to your last post and now I come to these "jewels" in "The Jewel". I do know how hard it has to be for you in meeting Sophie's day-to-day needs; giving up what you need for now; keeping the boys wrapped in loving and caring arms and simply living life. I see the love in this photograph. I can only wish you the strength to go with that love.

    Best,
    Bonnie

    Robert is well--at my uncle's pool today. One more day at the lake and then home.

  13. I thought I had commented on this but it doesn't look like it. I guess I did, but only in my mind.
    And what can one say except that there is so much beauty here and that I am thrilled you will not have to go to a hospital?

  14. Yes, I have to add my voice to our community chorus on this picture of you and Sophie -- such a beautiful mother/daughter glow! And hospitals =o@...don't get me started.

    Spinning a golden safety net around you and your girl.
