Because I’m still in love with you
Clarity. It’s what I’ve found tonight. It came in many different forms. A long talk with Mr. Sparkly eyes, an email from my Mrs. Darling(P.S., SB… that’s your new name) , an honest talk with my husband, and the music that blares on my headphones from a mixed C.D. that my New York Miss Macy…

The silence scares me because it screams the truth
A week. It’s been a week of sharing a room. Hospital beds. Hospital clothes. Hospital T.V. Hospital seconds/minutes/days/nights. Hospital tears. Hospital depression. Being home last night for the entire night with my twins felt so good that it hurt. I took them to breakfast this morning and we looked just like the perfect little family.…

There’s no place like home
The morning started off early and Stacy offered to bring me coffee; which I really needed. She then ever so sweetly offered to stay with Ro so I could run home and shower. So thankful for her because just being able to go home and shower makes such a difference in my day. Ronan was…

I just want to be home
Am I staring in Bill Murry’s movie, “Groundhog Day?” That’s what the days feel like around here. I texted Woody today and said is it Thursday or Friday today? I had no clue what day it was. I ran home to shower and repack my bag, hit up the grocery store for Ro, then headed…

Stacy Frakes is my hero…
You are a goddess. For sitting with me tonight and taking me away from this awful place even though we never left. I love you, your friendship, your husband and your kids. You are the truest of the true and I am so honored to be a part of you life. I love you, my…

A Margarita, Sangria, or George Clooney??
I talked to Dr. Wood this morning and Ronan’s ANC counts came up from 0 to 25. This still doesn’t mean we will be getting out of here anytime soon as they have to be up to 200 and rising for Dr. Eshun to discharge us. Dr. Wood said he expected us to be here…

Living is easy with your eyes closed
I have no idea what day it is even…. Wednesday I think? The days and nights are so blurry here and it is so easy to lose track of the time, days, and nights as they all seem to blend together. I do know that today is my dear birthday bunny, Jen’s birthday. Happy Birthday…

Look at the stars and how they shine for you
Ro baby is doing well. His ANC is still at 0, but his spirits are great. Sarah came this morning so I could run home and shower which is always a treat. Ronan and I have been playing a lot in his bed. I put on a puppet show with him with his…

Serenity now
Deep breaths and an amazing friends have gotten me through this past 24 hours. We were admitted into the ER last night around 9:00 due to Ronan’s low grade fever. I didn’t have to wait in the waiting room of the ER; THANK GOD. It was beyond packed even at 9:00 at night. The doctor…

Here we are, back at PCH
A quiet day at home ended up with Ronan back at PCH. His fever has been touch and go, he looks awful, so I called the on call doctor tonight and she told me to bring him in. We are now in a room back in the ER as Ro sleeps and they started him…
