S3 had his brain MRI today, he did perfectly and didn't had to re-do anything. Now we get to wait for the results for a couple few days...that is hard because who knows what is pressing on his optic nerve and other nerves...he is trying so hard to be tough and not worry.

He confided in me that he was worried...I listened and validated, gave him a bunch of hugs.

W and I were both there, she was quite pleasant, laughing at my attempts to make this all somewhat fun and take the edge off, very talkative, even sat next to me, lol.

She talked to/with me for almost 90 minutes, lots of venting about stuff, but also a bunch of "clarity" talk (I guess), gobs of "we" statements throughout. Different feel, lots of old W present tonight.

Tucking s3 in (well, as much as a 12 year old will let you) was sweet tonight...the boy has so much stress...but he found a "IYL Dad" somewhere... smile
