I need a bubble.

Feb 08, 2005 09:05

Everyone around me is sick. Everyone but me... so far. I've decided a big plastic bubble will suit me just fine until this whole flu epedemic has run its course. Kristy's sick, so I've been home with her a lot, which I don't mind at all. I think I'd rather be homed curled up on the couch than out at some smokey bar somewhere. We're doing really good, seven months now.

I just took my first midterm of the semester. It went well. No stress. I'm anticipating graduation more and more. I've gotten a new surge of energy when I thought I was close to burn out. A semester and a half and I'll be done. I can start a new chapter in my life. I'll be starting my externship at Cross Veterinary soon. It's a new clinic off of Hill rd.and I-475. Ten weeks there.. Nervous to say the least.

My sister is still in the hospital with Bryce. They say he has 30% brain damage on the left side of his brain and 15% damage on the right side. His prognosis is better that it has been. They have his seizures under control as long as he doesn't spike a fever, and most of the swelling has gone down in his brain. He's been doing a lot of jibberish, holding his bottle, and rolling over. My sister said he's trying to hoild himself up to crawl again, so hopefully he can bridge some gaps that may have been made from this whole ordeal. Everytime I see a new baby I think of him, and then think of how hard his life will be, and then start to feel sorry for him. But then it occurs to me that there's really no room for any of that. He'll make it just fine, with whatever life throws his way. He'll be a beautiful, and hopefully healthy young man one day.

Anyways. I still have an hour and a half before my next class, so I'm going to go run some errands. I'll keep those few readers I have left, posted.
