Cool, Crisp Morning

April 5

Still no tea
in me
but soon
I sip the green
and
awaken my mind
on  this
cool, crisp morning

New Lungs

April 4

O2 tanks came
breakfast made then eaten
cheesy eggs, tempeh bacon
the sun shines while Si naps
perhaps dreaming
of life with his new lungs

Si said the symbolism of the Teapot on his paintings is a "Tea Generator." A vessel which generates energy  for him in the form of Tea~~~~~~~~~

In Memory of Anne Frank


It was 70 years ago today that Anne Frank, age 13, started her diary about the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands. Her first entry read, "I hope I will be able to confide everything to you, as I have never been able to confide in anyone, and I hope you will be a great source of comfort and support."
Anne died in a Nazi concentration camp  in 1945 at age 15.

                                          IAN~~~~~~~LAUREN~~~~~~~~~~RYAN~~~~15 years old

Discharge~~~~~~20% FEV1

Si's baseline lung function is 20% after 2 weeks of IVs. This is higher than it's been for awhile and hopefully he can hang on to it......His vitamin D level is down so he needs sunshine, sunshine and
more sunshine!!!!! Good thing the summer season is upon us!
Dan and I will pick him him up later on today. We are finally  starting to feel better too.
Thanks to Dr. De L'eau (me)

Keep it Simple

"It is the foggy mind. The  mind thats attracted to an object and paints a distorted projection onto it that makes you suffer, Thats all. It's really quite simple" - Lama Thubten Yeshe

10 days of IVs

4  days to go.
The Cipro/Merepenum combo its still working it's westerm medicine magic on Si's Psuedomonas bug
in his lungs..........
Si did a great walk with Dan and I at Wingra Woods. This is always a good way to assess his progress.
Si is starting a painting  of one of his photos ( tea being poured into a teacup) while he is in the hospital  for Dobra Tea.
