My Birthday Present...  

Fingers Crossed.

Well as of 6:30am this morning my mom is in surgery having her knee replaced. I know that she really needed it and hopefully when all this is over she will have an abundance of relief. I just can't help being worried about her while it's going on. I asked Cindy to watch over her and give her sweet dreams while she sleeps. I asked that she give my dad strength and hopefully calm my nerves!

I have a bit of a sour stomach right now but that's been going on for a few days, so I don't think that's my nerves. Hopefully my dad will call and tell me everything went perfect. I'll be there later on, going to head there straight from work. Yes, I went to work. There is nothing I can do for her sitting in a hospital lobby, and with having a fairly new job, I'd rather not risk anything happening to it. They treat me rather good here, and I really am grateful. I'm here almost three months now and they bought me a brand new laptop... and I just found out that I'm going to be getting a Blackberry cell phone as well!

I hope everyone has a very peaceful weekend and be safe.

Hats

So seasons change and so do I. I'm working now, and I actually LIKE my job. I bought a hat which is really not like me at all but I like it and I'm told "it suites me". I know the picture is a little fuzzy, but it's from a cell phone, so NO complaints! Melissa will be Snow White this year for Halloween and I'm going to see her on her birthday next month. Things are going ok for now... Thankfully.

Lonely Birthday

October 10th, 1968: Cindy Robin Levine was born into this world...

October 10th, 2004: we shared what we all knew was the last birthday she would ever see in the lobby of Memorial Sloan Kettering Hospital.

October 10, 2005: A very sad day... I do hope that everyone who still reads this wishes Cindy Happy Birthday in heaven today. It's her first one there, and I just know my Grandma Sophie is cooking her an awesome greek meal, my Grandpa Paul is helping, and my Aunt Nenee is making the appetizers. I can see my Aunt Ellie sitting at a table wrapping wishes that are about to come true... and I hear my Grandpa Lou's lispy voice laughing and telling her stories of things she missed in heaven getting her up to date. They will all have cake later, but no candles are necessary... she'll have every wish come true.

Here... Andrew and Melissa say a quiet happy birthday... and I know he's hurting. I talked to him last night. My parents hearts break... and my heart.. just feels lost.

Wake me up... when today ends.

So here are better pictures of Melissa. Sorry for the wait, I had to wait for dad to get them off his camera and onto the computer! Enjoy!
