What I'm Writing About

Sunday's worship service went well; perhaps I'll write about that later. Today I saw two people waving from a bridge to cars passing below on the interstate, despite the heavy rain that was falling; I'll write something about them soon as well. But tonight my thoughts are on my four year-old son Tristan who was taken by ambulance to the hospital earlier today. He should be back home tomorrow (Tuesday).

When I took him in to his doctor this afternoon, the doctor diagnosed him with croup, (something that just about every parent of young children becomes familiar with); because Tristan was having difficulty breathing, the doctor wanted him transported by ambulance so that oxygen would be available.

My wife is at the hospital with him tonight. Tomorrow, I will go substitute teach 8th grade, Tristan will come home, and all of us will watch Harry Potter 4 on DVD---not something I'd recommend for most 4 year-olds, by the way, but if you know Tristan, you know he can handle it. That, too, I'll write about one of these days.
