I am writing early on monday morning. I just looked in on my birthday boy. I cannot believe its been a year. I find myself trying to catch my breath here. So many emotions come my way, and yet I thank God for this year I had with Zachary. THings could've turned out differently, he would not be here if another doc did not step in. I think of him this day. I am happy, yet I am sad. Zachary cried today because he wanted to play with a car with Jake and he could not move his arm. He tried so hard. I wonder lots of things especially if the other doctor thinks of him at all? I have so much to say, but cannot, I am not even suppose to be here. Today is my son's birthday, I will help him blow out his candle, my wish is for him-is to have a happy year without pain and the longing to use his arm, and not cry about it. He is my heart.
