The sky is ominously dark here in Almonte, so while my satellite connection is still up and running, I've been wasting time surfing. I ended up at Livejournal, where I have a small little journal that I write titbits and things that just don't make much sense.
The last time I wrote in it was February 9. It's my usual flair. Parenting angst and self-doubt sprinkled with a little bit of worry. But then, something jumped off the page.
"I'm scared. And I know John is too. He's been having nightmares about Alex for weeks. They always end with Alex's face burnt and disfigured. What is that about?"
February 9.
The weird thing is where he ended up on February 12. At CHEO with Kawasaki.
It never ceases to amaze me how connected we can all be. I know it sounds like I've had a few beers and I'm about to say "I love you man!", but really - reading that gave me chills.
I think about Kawasaki Disease less and less, but the impact it had will probably never go away, will it?
