Well, I guess I may be able to prepare for the worst. However, I think it's safe to say that how he reacts to even the smallest thing is not even close to predictable.

Last night H called to tell me that D13 was hit in the eye with a bat at softball practice. It was bleeding slightly, very swollen and dented in the corner. Our pediatrician has a daughter that plays, so she was there and recommended an E.R. visit to be checked for fractured orbit. H took her. Everything is o.k. For a very short time conversation (real conversation on the phone) was normal, easy and unguarded. Pity, it took a softball bat to the eye.............
