Hey, Mom! How are you? I’m happy to report that we are finally home. I think the last time I updated you was when Ramsey was in surgery for a g-tube insertion. I’ve had almost a week to get used to helping her get enough fluids. She doesn’t like it, but she tolerates me giving her fluids. I’m not sure how she will be when the teachers have to help her at school, but we will see.

I have to say that I’m very fortunate to have two wonderful sisters. Jennifer came up to house sit so the dogs and cats wouldn’t be totally neglected during the 18 days we spent at the hospital. Jade came to visit most days and often let me and Cliff escape for dinner. It was also nice just having either of them come visit so that we had another adult for conversation. I sometimes take for granted that I have a good relationship with both of my sisters, but I’m trying to remember to be appreciative.


I mentioned last time that I was exploring some creativity while in the hospital. I tried to teach myself crochet, and I’ll continue to practice that some. I also did some ridiculously bad drawing. But my other creative outlet was to create a video of Roo’s brain surgery experience. It’s on YouTube.
Otherwise, we’re going to spend the weekend together before we decide how we get Ramsey back into the routine of school, therapy, an do life in general.
