I’m so very sorry that I have been so out of the loop and haven’t been keeping up with Amelia’s progress.

While I am absolutely aching for you as one mother to another, I hope you are keeping your spirits up with the extremely tough medical analysis you provided, and the doctors words of “minor” brain surgery. I’m sitting here silently screaming at the words “minor” and “brain surgery” even being in the same sentence.

On another note, how would you feel about putting up a paypal type button for those of us that would like to contribute even a small amount to help you guys pay for whatever the insurance doesn’t cover? You have a lot more followers than I do, but I would be really happy to get the word out on my blog and ask my followers to also spread the word to their followers.

Think of Obama, from your own state, saying that we have to step up to the plate and help each other out. This is absolutely something I would rally behind. Helping a friend out. Please let me know what I can do, please…

I wish there was something I could do.

I’m thinking of you guys and sending you psychic Funyuns, Rock of Love episodes and hugs.

Oh Aunt Becky, even when upset, you still write beautifully. My heart goes out to you, and I will keep your family and Amelia in my prayers.

Here’s the plan, Beck. Brilliant fantastic surgeon takes care of what he considers a small issue in comparison to others. It’s just crazy how fast Amelia recovers, like it never happened. Furthermore, she has your personality and scares the crap out of you in 112 more creative ways over your lifetime, giving you more joy than you can hardly contain.

That’s my prayer & I’m sticking with it.

Valium is a truly wonderful drug. Take care of yourselves.

Yes, it could be worse… But Damn that it is what it is. I am so sorry that you have to go through this. That you have to watch your daughter go through this.

You will get through it though… and things will get better.

But DAMN.

This isn’t exactly the news I was hoping for (“Oh, it’s nothing, it’ll go away on it’s own in 2-3 weeks.”)

But a needed surgical removal of non-brain matter, beats the hell out of brain matter and REAL brain surgery.

I am still thinking of you and Amelia.

Offering you a virtual Vodka right now? Glad to hear it is not “real” brain surgery but holy crap dude, I’m sure you’re scared brainless right now.

One day at a time sweetie, we’re all praying for your sweet child.
