Rick is doing great! Just one week ago he was in ICU on IVs and a catheter. We were not sure what the effects of the surgery would be, or if there would be other complications.
I picked him up at his Mom's at 4 pm yesterday. He said he was hungry, wanted White Castle Burgers. So I said we would go to the market and he told me he was really hungry, and tired of eating in so suggested we go somewhere we that hadn't eaten in awhile. He picked La Dat, an Asian place in Hull. He had a California roll (all six pieces), half a cup of crab soup, and ginger chicken with house fried rice. Seconds on the rice. We went to Shaw's and got snacks and his frozen burgers, he had two when we got home as well as some chips and an ice cream. For breakfast his morning, he had the left over fried rice and two more White Castle burgers.
If the cure was just surgery, we’d be in such great shape, but we know now more than ever we have to find a way to stop this from coming back. But for today, we’re happy he’s doing so well. If he didn’t have his head bandaged, you wouldn’t know he had the surgery. He’s that active and so much the same “Ricky”. Children clearly have amazing healing abilities, and we were lucky that it was a situation that we caught in time, and was operable. Not all are so lucky. I thank god again for the good cards we did get. It could be so very different today, but instead his grandparents are coming to visit. Last time they saw him was at Children’s. They are going to be delighted…
