Waiting

There's been a lot of happy families, a lot of good news being shared here. Giovanni's family just got good news and they're going to see him in his bed as he is wheeled down the hall.

My family is everywhere. One of my eight sisters is sitting across from me. My son is playing hoops right now. My daughters are...all over. My work friends - my brothers and sisters - are all waiting news. Dr. Tweddell says there are days of making the Gortex work...days after surgery where they have to adjust things and meds to make it work.

I just want Zoe Bean to wake up. The family is waiting.
