We are filling time and keeping very busy waiting for the results of the important lymphocyte test to come. It is supposed to take two to three weeks for the results and we are somewhere in that window. Again this is the indicator of whether or not Daniel is starting school on time or not. Either way he will be starting school it is just whether or not he is actually going to the classroom or not. He has been doing his summer work, and is very ready to go back. Meanwhile we are busy, busy, busy doing this and that to pass time. He didn’t get to go to camp or travel or even get to go swimming in a pool this summer again. Two summers in a row now but we are having fun I think. I am trying to give him a little fun without spoiling him but sometimes it is so hard not to deny him anything he wants. He is lately very devoted to reconditioning. He recently picked out a new weight set that he will use in our newly made exercise room that he is using everyday he is not going to the wellness center . He is working on reconditioning so that joining the basketball team is a possibility. Working towards a goal has always worked for him.
Today we went on an impromptu field trip to the Make-A-Wish office to see what it was all about. What a fantastic place. It was like walking into a wonderland. What they are doing there for children is truly a wonder. It is decorated to create a magic for any child. Maybe not so much for older boys, but it was beautiful. The women there were so kind to Daniel and excited to meet him and glad to see him looking so strong and healthy. To see all the stars representing all the wishes granted made me very sad. There were thousands and thousands of stars and although that meant just as many wishes that meant that many wishes that needed to happen. Happy and sadness all at the same time. I am so glad this place exists to give kids and their families a small moment of happiness for all of their struggle. Each one is a star in their own right.
