In The Pink

Whew!
From Italian Vogue

Everything is fine!
Bringing him home today.
Life is amazing.
To quote a great Southern belle: I've always depended on the kindness of strangers...
The people we met at the hospital from the surgeon to the nurses, to the other folks waiting around for news of their loved ones, to the cafeteria and gift shop workers, to the volunteers manning the help desk - well you take it all for granted as just being there, until you feel like you're going to break into a million little pieces, and then they are all there to keep you in one piece.
And this Yankee gal also depends on the kindness of friends who have become our family, and on the love of our families by birth right.
Thank you all for being there, for the comments, the e-mails, the phone calls, for taking Cholo out for a walk while we were at the hospital, for the flowers being sent, for reminding us that we matter.
Life is so enjoyable.
