Some happy news...my grandson Dillon is graduating on the 9th of June. I can't attend because the family is in Montana and I am in California and my budget and car say I won't be going. But, I am excited just the same. He is graduating with honors. But, that is not what is bringing tears to my eyes at this moment...we lost him for 8 minutes when he was ll months old. He was hospitalized for a month and had several surgeries after swallowing a tack and it was several weeks (even was hospitalized) before finding out what was wrong. I remember to this day visiting him in the hospital and going straight to the hospital chapel to pray for better medical care for him. Something in his pleading eyes didn't look right to me. He didn't come out of the ordeal without problems. His vision in one eye is really bad..my daughter said something about due to the infection his eye was 'blown' and his balance is off some so he prefers to skate board (which I got him into when I bought him his first skate board in 2009 when we went to visit in Montana. Before they moved to Montana I saw he wasn't able to balance well on a bike so I figured 'why not' try a skate board as it was closer to the ground. I found the best one I could afford and surprised him with it. He can go for blocks and blocks on a skate board now...and other kids trying to keep up with him but falling down. He needed something boyish for fun and so glad I figured out what. That is my miracle grandson. And I couldn't be prouder.
So happy for him hugs carolyn
