here’s a comment from yesterday,
Annette says:
Glad your operation went well. My friend Wendy’s cousin works in a restaurant in Vail and knows your Dr.
My doc’s pretty well known as he is the Women’s U.S. Ski Team doctor and just operated on Lindsey Vonn after her bad accident in January. He and all of them (other docs and nurses) are really good caring people who’ve called to check on me several times.
Now from the title of today’s post you might think I’m talking about me being so brave at PT and going through rehab but it’s not about me, it’s about our oldest. You see yesterday he went to a birthday party after school at Big Time, the trampoline place. At the party some older kids were picking on his friends and hurting them so he stepped in. In the end he was punched in the side of his head and came home with a headache that we had to monitor all night from saving two kids from these 14 year old bullies. We were not there but other mothers who broke it up say that our guy was so brave as he stepped in and stood up for his classmates knowing he would be attacked. Apparently one of the older kids got him in a head lock and was punching him in the ear. We’re watching him closely still this morning. We almost took him in last night to the hospital to make sure he was ok but his symptoms were ones that said to just watch. We’re a bit disappointed that one of the mothers didn’t call us right away or that security at this place wasn’t better but we’re not sure they saw the whole thing. We might still call the police as there’s no place for that behavior. Anyhow our guy is a hero and I’m sure will be toasted today at school. He’s helping me un-hook my cold water circulation system right now that is around my knee. He deserves some kind of major award!
Today the misses has her big event and will be gone most of the day. She’ll drop me at therapy at 10 and her friend will pick me up at 11 and drive me home. I’ll be alone until the boys get dropped off around 3 or so. The misses big event is from 5 to 7 so we won’t see her until 8 pm or so. The youngest too has a headache and has had one for weeks, we’re pretty sure it’s allergies but we have a hard time getting him to take meds. Also playing seems to help!
Time to run, lots going on and I need to get moving as I need help from the misses with certain things like putting the big rubber bag around my leg so I can shower, what fun!
Just another day in paradise, good news is that in a week, we’ll all be doing better as between my knee, the boys headaches and the misses neck, we can’t do much worse. I almost forgot, Pa Don seems to be doing a little better, we’re all worried about him too as he was almost touch and go yesterday not being able to drink much of anything and had heavy labored breathing. In the afternoon he did get on the phone with the misses who reminded him he said he’d live to 94 and to get it together!
God Bless and enjoy watching the administration squirm all day trying to cover their lies!
