Breaking the rules...

Anyone that sits in with a group of teachers knows we are the worst listeners. So here I sit by Lincoln's bedside, holding his hand & comforting him when he cries. And it seems to be helping. If I try to let It go, he holds on stronger. Sometimes, Mommy knows best. And I even convinced the nurse to let me give him his pedialite bottle, and he sucked it down like a champ. They won't let him have milk yet because of his sodium levels, and his fluid restriction is still pretty high. We have had two wakeful periods where he just stares at me -the most alert he has been since Monday morning before his first surgery. Hoping, and praying.

  1. It just shows you how strong you truly are...sweet Lincoln feels it and feeds off of it when he holds your hand! You are an amazing (and stubborn) mom! Lincoln is so lucky!

  2. Good for you doing what you felt was right and not what everyone else thought. Stay strong.

  3. There are healing properties in love that sometimes even modern medicine can't account for. Keep positive. --John
