Happy New Years EVE

It is the end of a long year. We've made some new friends and worn out some old ones. It's sad thing, but I guess it just how it is. People get tired of hearing about the same old things...not enough time, not enough money, another bill and another doctor's visit. I'd be lying to say that some of it hasn't hurt, but let's get real..this is hard for us and we struggle to keep it together...can't really blame those who just walk away and don't want to hear it anymore...OH wait..yes I can...Just how I am...I want to be understanding, but that ran out a long time ago. One bad hospital meal at a time.
We've had a crappy year...it's tired my marriage, it's tried my resolve, it's pretty much tired everything. And I can say with out doubt....acceptance just is NOT in my genetic make up.
Brian had his portacath removed....not very gracefully, by a surgeon that I will not allow to touch him ever again. A sad and frightening replacement to Dr. Mosca for sure....yanking and tugging then.."oh it's stitched in"...concerning since SHE SHOULD be putting them in as well....that caused some unnecessary pain for him. :(
He is also going to start physical therapy to help with the neuropathy...more on that later...
in the meantime....may you all who still read and care, have a happy and healthy New year. May you be blessed to NEver walk a mile in our shoes or deal with a sick child.
