Hello
It is about 4:30 here on Monday, we just got back from Lukes 1st spinal injection. I seems to be doing well he smiled at me and the nurses right before he fell asleep. The procedure took 40 minutes and I was so happy to see him, he gave me another half drunk smile when I saw him, he was pretty out of it. It is a scary thing to have your child sedated and taken away from you in foreign county, but they gave him back and he is doing fine.
Luke now has to lie flat for next six hours and has not eaten since 8:00 this morning, it could be a rough night ahead. Since Luke has been unable to eat I decided I would try to do the same until we could eat together. It lasted until about 11:30, I did seek into the bathroom to eat some beef jerky so he wouldn’t see me.
Luke and I had a nice weekend we walked to a park about twenty minutes away there was a big lake and water gardens very pretty and hard to describe. There were also 5 or 6 wedding parties there with brides and grooms walking all over the place getting their pictures takes. One bride and groom looked like they had already hit a rough patch, I could tell b/c the groom was walking about 15 ft ahead of his bride and nobody with them looked like they had smiled all day, I thought good luck. Luke was the star there no matter hom many brides were around, he got his picture taken by compete strangers 5 -6 times.
We are looking forward to getting back home everyday. Thanks for everyones comments and we will write again soon.
Take care,
Clint
