Finding balance.

Hello friends,
It has been 6 month of emotional roller coaster for parents ,grandparents and close friends of the family. For me as a mother this has been very challenging experience. On one hand I want to push Sammy to be tough and recover faster -on the other hand I don't want him to think or feel that we are disappointed in his performances. He has been working ,so hard to get back to his previous condition and making peace with the fact that Sammy might not regain some neurological and other functions while going through brain tissues damage- has been difficult for me.
Restoring personal balance-how do you get there?! What I had discovered -that every one has their own way to deal with crisis.There is no right way or one way for everyone. I discover ,that you can not get there right a way,it takes step at the time -it takes restructuring and getting rid off unimportant stuff that was clattering our life's before,re-arranging everything allover again. I have also learned that this process is inevitable and if you missed a step you will loose.

Naturally our hero Sammy has been keeping his eye's and ears open.Yesterday he kept putting his hands in every ones mouth and while playing with ...... he pulled dentures out of someones mouth! Talking about mischief! Sammy was laughing,so hard it was very funny! It's a new joke in our family now.
On that note I will wish everybody Good Night.
Sammy and Mom.

Comrade, this IS powerful!!!

"Getting rid of unnecessary clutter" - how emancipating it must be!

I've heard something recently: anchor sinks the ship during the rising tide. Many of us are held by clutter (unnecessary weight)in our lives and you are blessed to have been able to re-group and rid yourself from superfluous weight.
