BigFish Requests Some Good Thoughts
My son is in the hospital today....seems he and his younger brother were horsing around last night at their Mothers house and things got too rough I guess....my youngest either jumped on or punched his older brother very hard in the stomach and long story short, he was vomiting as a result so his Mother took him to the hospital and a catscan showed some fluid in the stomach area, possibly a little internal bleeding. They transferred him to childrens hospital this morning and currently we are waiting for a surgeon to look at him and make a determination on whether surgery may be needed to correct the problem? My guess is that it will so....I am just a little bit on pins and needles! You know how it is when your children are hurting. So if you could just have a good thought for my son....as I said....not serious I guess but I am concerned none the less. Heading in to see him in a bit.....his younger brother is guilt ridden.....I will deal with that later but these things can happen, kids will be kids and he has been told to forgive himself as it was an accident.....but as you can imagine.....he feels terrible. His older brother is none to happy with either!
Thanks for the thoughts.

My best thoughts and prayers, Larry.
When I grew up the hospital staff knew me and my 3 brothers by our first names. We were always putting one another in the ER. Part of growing up that makes parents nuts. They'll both be fine and a little wiser.

I have 3 boys, and I am amazed that with the stuff that goes on between them we are not at the emergency room more often ! Thoughts and prayers, kids are pretty resilient and bounce back fast.

Larry, I hope everything turns out well. Nothing worse than having a child in need of emergency care. I'll be thinking of you and him of course.

Larry, thoughts and prayers are sent for your son's recovery.
I know what brothers can do to each other. My two older brothers got BB Guns for Christmas one year and I being almost a decade younger got an indian chiefs headress complete with shield and tomahawk. On Christmas morning I kept making like an Indian brave and attacking them so my older Brother John got sick of it and shot me with his bb gun. Emergency room on Christmas morning was no fun, niether was the three stitches where they dug out the bb from my stomach.
He'll be fine and your wisdom in straightening this out sounds right on the money.

Why even try.........

Larry very sorry to hear this. Don't have any kids but I guess this is what being a parent is all about. You know my well-wishes and prayers are being said as this post gets typed. I'm sure he will be o.k.

Thoughts and prayers are with you and I know how you feel as my daughter has to have a kidney removed anytime now, think positive and all will turn out okay.
Good luck to you and your son.
