So Rowan has been slowly trending down with his SATs over the last week and got to the point today where we were pretty concerned and uncomfortable with him being at home. We went ahead and took him in. He looks like he feels crummy, he’s a little bluer than normal…and as life goes, we don’t have any perfect gift-wrapped happy answer or plan. They are just watching him.
Doc and I are a little concerned about what these changes mean in the long run. It is possibly just a virus but there is still a chance that his last operation will not stick or that “just a virus” will do him in. I say concerned instead of worried for a reason.
Worrying does no good. Concern is smart. Concern is keeping a close eye and keeping communication open. Concern is paying close attention and being prepared for any decisions we may need to make. We are concerned.
Evelyn was extremely upset when we left with Rowan. She cried and repeatedly asked to go with us when we took Rowan away. She is worried about him. She wants to go up and see him and make sure he is okay. She is scared.
But we know that this is another admission. This is another problem that has slammed into Rowan’s path. We will make the wisest decisions we can. We will show Rowan and Evelyn what courage looks like. And we will find strength in the love our family has.
After all…
He is so very worth it.
