It probably goes without saying that there was a lot of uneasiness and tension, in connection with Piper’s move today. We have been butting heads so hard with Columbia, and Blythedale was acutely aware of how unhappy Reagan and I were, with the idea of Piper going back to them. I have to admit that … Continue reading Another notch in Piper’s belt→
Warning: this post contains a lot of complaining and negativity. Read on at your own risk of boredom and/or depression. The weather today is blah. Which is fitting, since that is my general sentiment toward life, at the moment. I have briefly touched on the issues that we are currently battling, regarding Piper’s health care, … Continue reading More proof that things never go as you plan→
We had a great visit with Piper this evening. She was a pretty good sport about it too, given the fact we woke her up to hang out with us. She has continued doing well, this past week. We are still working on getting all of the logistics straight so that Piper can get back … Continue reading PeeJay update→
Reagan and I have been having a pretty sweet day. We got up really early and went for a nice long run before it got too hot and before it started to rain. After our run, we headed out to Long Island. We had been planning on heading out there to our favorite fish store, … Continue reading Sabado Gigante→
We has such an amazing little visit with Piper tonight. First of all, the weather tonight was phenomenal. We rode our bikes down to the hospital (thanks again, Tadd). Reagan was able to try out her new helmet. She did very well, for a person who was pretty nervous about riding the streets of NYC. … Continue reading Smiley little Peejay→
Sunday night, after we got back to the Heights and unloaded the car, it took me about 30 minutes to find a parking spot. I ended up parking on a meter on Broadway down by Piper’s hospital around 2 A.M.. Since I was already there, I decided not to wait until the sun came up, … Continue reading Good to be back, sort of→
I feel like I have managed to maintain a fairly positive tone lately when I write. I have have delved into the realm of criticism on a few occasions, but have been good about avoiding blatant negativity. So I feel kind of bad about this, but, right now I’m totally jumping off of the positivity … Continue reading Venting about the Vent situation→
It has been so fun having Piper so close to us again for these couple of weeks. It is going to be really tough to have her back in NJ. The good news is, the GJ tube does seem to have helped with the vomiting. Last night, they also had her on the portable vent, … Continue reading Piper headed back to Jersey, today or tomorrow→
Days like today, I feel like pretty much the worst father that ever existed. Of course the day that Piper is finally actually getting the GJ tube installed, is the very same morning that I have a very difficult transaction occurring at work. Reagan and I were both able to be there with Piper this … Continue reading Crazy Morning→
For the second week in a row, yesterday Piper was bumped back from her scheduled GJ tube procedure. Apparently there was a kid in more dire need of it, and IR could only take on case from the PICU. We aren’t too frustrated about it. Now that CS is full again, there is no real … Continue reading Piper told me to tell you what’s up→
