This boy
Imagine not being able to walk from the age of 5 when you could run and skip before turning 2. Imagine losing your older brothers before you could even understand why they’re gone. Imagine breathing becoming more of a conscious effort than a natural automated process. Imagine that as you lose your ability to walk, you suddenly realize they’re slowly becoming deformed. Twisted.

What’s a century divided by four?
Blogging is such a great tool to quickly access the moments the writer has captured into words in one particular cross-section of time, … very much like an online diary thing.

That being said, we have had our fair share of being busy since the afternoon. Anyhoo, I’m happy I got my fair share of sleep which I’ve never had before since working here in the labour room.
