Lucy has enjoyed returning to school, art class, and everywhere else she can accomplish a creative task, have a crazy playtime or enjoy a cozy chat. The further out she gets from the hospital, the more outgoing and confident she seems. The last two weeks she has had mild headaches, but so have I, so we hope it's just part of the autumn cold our family is passing around. Her first real post-surgery MRI is next Tuesday, November 27th, and we will post results here. Her outpatient surgery for her wandering eye is scheduled for March.
Sometimes art is the only means of expressing our honest situation, so I close with poetry:
...sometimes the camera pauses while a family
counts itself, and all of them are alive,
their mouths dry caves of wordlessness...
a craziness we have so far no name for--
(Mary Oliver)
