Ear tube surgery is a breeze. Adenoidectomies a little more difficult...and sitting in hospital waiting rooms even harder, but we just got home safe and sound. Surgery was at 8am and we were admitted to the PICU for the afternoon. Luckily we were discharged and didn't have to stay overnight. Right now we're grateful for a little Tylenol with codeine (a devoted Didi, wonderful doctors and amazing nurses). Thank you for all your prayers of healing and strength. We're all looking forward to recovery and tomorrow is a new day filled with new adventures.
“Survival and thriving. These are the poles between which the moments of our lives are strung. The balance is tenuous, and the outcome for each of us is different. Yet we mostly start with the same raw stuff: skin, a mother, food, shelter, breath, and each moment as it unfolds — one after the next — right now. From these all the intricacies of our lives are made. No matter who you are, your day is occupied with the small repetitive tasks of living, and it’s in these moments that we’re shaped; even as we’re dreaming of other things.”
