sun flowers & kids, both are gems & a delight :)

John Travolta and his 16 y/o son...this boy had a seizure in the bathroom and hit his head in the bath tub and died...like Michael with seizures. like a thief in the night that happens suddenly without warning. Michael had this for the past 3 years now and on medication. one time he was on the last step going up from our basement when he started to have one. lucky us for J.C. was in the basement and heard him so we rushed at his side and he did not fall from the stairs. one time we were at Nagoya Airport en route home after a Phil. vacation at the hallway when he had another attack...Japan's emergency rescue team is superb, comparable here in the U.S. i would say :) one in a hotel lobby and the last was in the bath room as well where we have to unbolt the door to help him out. we are lucky as of yet. so yes, my wish in life is for safety for Michael every time he has this seizure, for we will never know. it is not the seizure that kills, it is the injury that might happen during the episode like Travolta's son had. they were on vacation on grand Bahama island...very sad and i can feel the pain and the loss...
