Most of my friends know I loveeeeee this time of a year. Fall is so wonderful here in Oregon. When the leaves start to change I think of pumpkin farms, sweaters and soup. The month of September brings changes to us all . Kids go back to school, work generally gets busier and we start to get ready for Christmas. September is generally the month that Cooper gets his MRI. So Wednesday we make our migration up the hill to Doernbecker Children's Hospital. Cooper and I will spend all day there. We will walk the familiar halls and see our familiar doctors. So I start my pattern of sleepiness nights and upset stomachs. I will wonder if his tumor has grown. I will wonder if life could be so cruel when I already know that it can. I will worry. That's what I do. I will also be thankful for being busy with soccer instead of doctors. Trying to find time for horseback riding lessons instead of therapy. And shuffling kids to Lego robotics instead of hospital rooms. I will also worry and hold my breath till Wednesday is over.
