Day 2
... and a continuation of day 1.
The ambulance came yesterday and we got to the hospital and the folks at gbmc saw you were out of it. Thankfully we both got in the ct machine so they could see in your head and then they saw swelling and a mass and the good people at John Hopkins came and got you - they found a 3cm mass in your lower brain stem - which is common for kids that have cancer there.
They put a drain in your head to help w the pressure and here we are on day 2 waiting for more information.
I’m so proud of you. I’m so proud you’re my son.
Yesterday I was not strong for you / I felt so sorry - I cried and held my knees - I did it for me. Well / that was selfish / you need me - and you don’t need my tears. People say all the time that I’m a “good dad” - well that is about to get really proven.
You’re gonna make it - and we’re gonna do all the things we’re supposed to do.
