Letters To The Man in The Moon

To The Man In The Moon Dear Dad, June. I can't believe it's already June. This time last year I was in a hospital bed puking, unable to eat or keep down fluids. I believe I had a tube down my nose, trying to feed my body. It's been a crazy year. Every year you hope, that this year will be better than the last. But are they ever really? I mean you can compare illnesses, deaths with births, marriages with divorces but really, what's the deciding factors? In the end the year was what is was because you have to learn to take the good with the bad. I think I am finding that more difficult as I get older instead of easier. I guess maybe I should hope to just handle the years better instead of hoping the year is better.   Mom is doing better. I think anyway. It's hard to tell with her health. Some day's I think that she's doing really well and then I am not so sure the next one. She had her tests done, they thought they knew what was going on. Bleeding in ...

To The Man In The Moon Dear Dad, I should have known, after my post yesterday that today would bring about something to test me. This morning mom wasn't feeling well and slowly she deteriorated all day. Then this evening after I had made dinner and fed Liam, I went to check on her and she told me she was feeling really bad. Her chest had started hurting and she was feeling her heart racing. So I asked if she had taken her medicines and she said yes and I told her she should take a nitro and we should just go to the ER. After getting her nitro I started checking to see which medicines she had taken for the day but the pill boxes were empty so I started filling them for her while she got her stuff together and I found something was wrong with one of her medicines. After checking it several times I found that the pharmacy had miss filled one of her prescriptions with another medication so I ran in and asked her what meds she ha taken for the day and she said she took her lunch m...

To The Man In The Moon Dear Dad, Once again I have to say its been too long. Being a mom to a two year old is a bright and chaotic thing. The best thing. Now that he is getting bigger it seems everyday I think " If Grandpa could see you now". I see the same look on Grandma's face. It keeps you close to our hearts. Tonight is a perfect spring night. Thunderstorms rolled in and the thunder is going to lull us all to a nice peaceful sleep I think tonight. Spring is here. I keep thinking about how badly we need to go up to Smithville and visit you. Liam is getting so big. He is so full of love and wonder. He is your grandbaby, he love fish. He just got his first official pet. Well technically he second. He had a fish. A beta that was a pretty red and blue. Poor thing never really even got a name. He died 3 days after we got him. So now he has 4 goldfish. The Avengers  - Hulk, Thor, Ironman and Captain America though we just call him Captain. He has always loved fish. ...
