Aunt Dianne is here. She is doing well and seems to be taking the change in culture in stride. She is gratifyingly impressed by the crazy traffic and gratifyingly chill about everything else.
I am leaving in 4 days. I do not want to go. I want to stay with Cash, I want to stay at the clinic, I want to stay in India. I will be getting on a plane on Saturday anyway.
Cash is doing great - more and longer standing all the time. He is sleeping alot right now, but the other patients tell me that stem cells make them tired. He pushed himself up into a standing position the other day using only a low cushion, and today he stood alone for a long time without his braces. I still love to see him stand.
I'm reading The Selected Works of T.S. Spivet right now. I highly recommend it.
Steph,
ReplyDeleteI am sorry that you need to come back just when it seems that things are turning a corner. Maybe Cash's progress will be even more astonishing when you are removed from the situation for a week or two. When does Cash, Josh and Aunt Dianne return?
