Priorities

This past week a very important music conference took place in Miami. Jorge and I have attended this event for so many years that I can not remember exactly how many. This year, however, we decided to skip it.

Family time and commitments were far more important this time around. Also, I refused to take time off work.

What do you know? The one refusing to take a day off work did not think twice to take whatever time off when it came to be about her son.

Dan had to be admitted to the ICU with Kitoacidosis. Severe dehydration, protein in the urine, acids in the blood, high glucose in the blood, unstable heart, and on and on.

Thank God he is out of the ICU, but we are still here at the hospital. We might go home today and I am willing to take life without pay for my baby boy :)

No April Anymore

April came and went and I didn't realize it. I spent 12 days in Europe and when I came back, Jorge stayed there for another 2 weeks. Being a single parent is a tough job. My respect to all single parents. Dan is graduating in a couple of weeks and had singing competitions that he kept on winning, so he kept on competing. Then, Ragtime show rehearsals and performances. I attended all 4 nights. He did an awesome job.

Saini on the other hand, has been working very hard to make good grades at a school she hates. She too, had a few performances of her own.

Jorge came home for 4 very short days and took off to Italy. Yes, again. He is back now for a couple of weeks. And then, he will go back to Italy for another couple of weeks.

I am enjoying the moment while it lasts. Staying busy with prom, graduation, Danmoving out, visit from out of town, and everything in between.
