Today is a special day. It's Ronnie's Birthday. To the long time readers here, know about Ronnie, my absolute fave person in the world. New readers can follow the link for more of the story.
We grew up together, and I will probably never know as pure and unconditional love from any human being. I remember staying up late watching movies (he is largely responsible for my love of horror films), making mischief. It's funny, when I wrote
this entry two years ago, I barely expected him to still be here now. But here he is.
Ronnie has had a tough year. Right after Christmas last year, he had a violent seizure that nearly ended his life. It was so bad it broke both his legs and his right arm. It was touchy for a while as he was in and out of ICU and unable to breathe on his own. Of course Ronnie has always been good at defying the odds. He recovered, with the help of my dear Aunt, and the lifesaving efforts of some great doctors & medical facilities. Ronnie is currently recovering well in assisted living and getting better every day. He should be coming home soon and that will be a happy day indeed.
Happy Birthday Ronnie. Get well soon. Cousin loves you.
