HAPPY FATHERS DAY
FOR ZACHARY I WOULD...........Zachary, I will be everything I can be for you baby
I would become a man
to father you
more than any mother ever has
I will father you
in the park
I will father you
at the zoo
I will father you
in the shadows
ward off nightmares
kill bugs
teach you to shave
I will father you
as deeply into your wounds as I can
to slay dragons there
my arms are stronger than a sailors
when they are around you
I father you
I love you

I have been freaking out but yeah..... I still get proactive and low and behold..... GOOD NEWS!
I got a surgery date of July 5th! With a plastic surgeon to work on Zach's mouth....removing wisdom teeth and hopefully placing an incisor into the right spot or pulling it..... this is the man who can save his tooth!
I went to the hosp. Got a new brace for his leg.....got a new perscription to increase his pain meds....stopped in to make them face me...... I looked the surgery scheduler right in the eye and said I had to come to increase his pain meds. Ok so there are seven pts. waiting for an opening. An opening came up today..... was she going to call me? NO! But face to face what can she do???
Listen, if someone said, this kid is more medically urgent than your kid...... I would wait.....It's just that competitive in to get good healthcare. I fought for it and I won. July 5th is in three weeks. I am ready and then we will recover and damn it .......this should be the last of teething issues!! ( I've said that for about four years now) This time I really mean it. Sometimes I wonder how the hell I can be such a mess and yet still do the right thing for Zach.... I just get so intense sometimes.... For lack of a better word..... I feel like saying a prayer....sending some love....to those seven other suffering kids waiting for their surgery..... Some mom's just can't call everyday and then show up when they feel tugged in that direction. But damn I am in tune! Rockstar mom! I took zach and the nanny and myself out for frozen yogurt on the way home! I did it...

This cracks me up but it also explains my day.....First I play saint and go to the hospital. We pick up a new brace for his leg. We pick up a new perscription because we are uping his dose. Then I have to take care of business. Zachary's TV broke and do did the lamp in his room.
My goodness defective or what? Over use still a lamp and a tv from the movie CARs should still be working. You know he uses movies to help him deal with pain. He watches animal planet waiting for the meds to kick in.
I wish I had the name of the arrtist that painted this photo ....I am going to come back and post the name.

zachary is living dose to dose. Our main doctor is leaving.
I am forsee checking into the ER until they admit him and make the surgery happen.
He's bigger, he's suffering, I am scared for both of us.
I have one other choice try to get a waiting list at another hosp.
I am afraid the INS issue might get out of my control and get the authorizations canceled....it happens.
I have a new medication to start. I hate this process.
I think it's bad timing to do this. He's suffering and I won't be able to get a good read of this ....... It should work and it's very very expensive.! $4oo.oo...... it isn't covered automatically, I had to fight for it. I have to be careful because six perscriptions are covered and the rest I pay for...... I have to fill the expensive ones and pay for the cheaper ones myself.

Zach was going over his car colection from the movies cars.
I guess he leaned over to hug his whale and fell asleep.
Every now and then a sleeping child does wonders for your soul.
Hey, doesn't a nap sound soo good?

To help put me out of my misery, Brett decided to send me an ARC (advance reading copy) of his book The Cleaner! Aw how sweet!
If you go to his website by 6pm tonight Mon. ( whatever day it is today....OMG) Leave the name of your all time favorite book and you are entered into the contest to win an ARC of The Cleaner!
Today's Contest! 4 ARC of The Cleaner
In order to get a chance to read a good bit of it ( which you'll be burning to do) I took Zach to the South Pasadena Library. We have never been in that library. It's a tree that has playdates with all the local toddlers, teens sit to text, artist come to sketch and moms come to breathe and read.
Thank you Brett! Jonathan Quinn is one very intriguing man ( and ladies trust me you'll like him!) You want to rip through the book but then again.....no, you want him to be your friend just a little while longer.
If you think in pictures and like a book that will let your mind roll film in your inner theatre, You'll love the way Brett writes!!! I love it!

They have a coffee shop across the street though and that makes it a good day for both of us.

I am so glad we are having some fun again! It's living dose to dose until the surgery but this is just minutes from the hospital. I can plan it out and make it work.....usually.....: )

Sometime in May ( after I got overwhelmed but before I started drinking) Rob had a contest..... Take a pitcure of yourself with his book. This is my attempt to pick up where I left off. Doesn't Zach looked thrilled?
He wrote the book
Rob and his buddy Brett made a Pod cast about their shared love, no, not about me, about writing, reading, story telling, well, it's about Character.
Episode 1 - CHARACTER IS KING
I begged for more
Vroman's bookstore completely rocks!

I had wanted to buy Rob's book at a Mystery Book Shop. I had never been in that shop and it was a good reason to go. I finally made it to the Mystery Book Shop. A man vaguely reminded me of the Captian from Giigan's Island was helping ....I have to say it....The little old Lady from Pasadena.... I wanted to hug him watching how sweet he was to her.....then I wanted to kill him because they only carry out of print Mystery Books...... Holy Crap I better get to Vroman's! I got the last copy on the shelve but bonus it was a signed by the author!
PS Rob was a doctor in a past life... No actually, it looks a bit like Brad Pitt's cement autograph..... A combo of those two...
