25 months to the day since Pádraig was struck by Mr Couto’s van.
One month for each year of his life.
And you’ll say, tomorrow will be another day, not doubt. Better, I hope. Don’t be sad and if you are, don’t show it.
There are days like these. For me, it wasn’t a good day. It’ll pass like all days. That’s the good thing, even about bad days. They’ll all pass.
For Pádraig, I think it wasn’t too bad a day. He is beginning to warm up to his new speech therapist (or is it the other way round?) – they seem to be getting on much better with each other. During his physio, we tried out the Vojta table again which is working out really well. Having a firm base, rather than working on the bed, which is quite soft, make a huge difference, both for Pádraig, and for the person working with him. Pádraig’s physio is teaching me some exercises to do with Pádraig – and it is really ‘with’, it’s like doing them together.
25 months. One month for each of his year of his life.

“25 months. One month for each of his year of his life.” … Tears on my eyes… Last week I told a Sister my sadness about the world and the future and she ansered me don’t to see too far but just focuse on the small good thinks that happen every day. That made me think about your family…
Thanks for this.
Exactly, Marianne: One day at a time. And rather than world peace, focussing on what we can do, influence and change. Not that I wouldn’t want world peace, but there is nothing I can do to make that happen in the big world, just in my own small world – and to be honest, even that is not always an easy job:)
Un beso y un abrazo especial, espero que el mal día haya pasado ya y hoy haya salido el sol en todos los sentidos.
No salió el sol, pero ha sido un día bueno, Ana. Un beso y un abrazo grande!
