JetFanByMarriage Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 My daughter played this for my son today on his birthday! She obviously clicked on the wrong song for a thirteen year old which made it even funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 When Shane was born they told us everything was fine. He was breathing and we exhaled. Forty weeks of worrying and we finally felt relief. Everything is fine they said. We have a healthy 8 plus pound boy. We were 25 and thought we spent all that time worrying for nothing. That feeling lasted all of 3 minutes. Then the nurse said he wasn't breathing right. Told me to come with her and started sprinting. She was wheeling him towards the nursery but she was sprinting. Right past our family waiting in the lobby. They pulled down all the blinds in the nursery and his color wasn't right. I remember them calling ICU and the Doctor said he would be there as soon as he could. They were talking about heart rates and pulse ox. I felt like I had an exam and I didn't study for it. She screamed at the Doctor on the phone, you will get here now. They told me to sit in the corner and I just prayed. All that worrying was for nothing. Because we worried about the wrong stuff. I did pray. At that point when they are banging on your child's chest and back and he is less than 10 minutes old -- there is no deal you wouldn't make. I just prayed for him to be alright. There was no price I wouldn't have paid for that exact thing. And he was alright. A few tests, spinal taps, etc -- and within a week they told us there was absolutely nothing wrong with him. I think about that day all the time. How helpless it felt. Going home from the hospital without him totally sucked. But within his first week of life we learned such perspective. Because everything was alright. So many people around us were not as fortunate. It taught us to appreciate every minute you get. For the most part we have tried to do that, it is hard at times. But when you think to what is truly important in life it all seems easy. Money, house, car, job, general stress. None of it matters in the end. When I think of that day I realize all I have is all I need. Nothing else matters. Someday little Max will be the Ruler of this Kingdom. Today, we celebrate his 13th birthday. He is a good kid. We are truly blessed to have him. In 13 years he has brought us nothing but joy. Yeah I know, letting him hang out with Duane and Company at the Harley Tailgate isn't the best parenting decision ever. But the sooner he realizes that my decision making ability sucks, the better off he will be. Happy Birthday Shane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woo Hoo. It reminded me of my sister when she gave birth to her twins three months ago. Olivia was just 4 lbs, couldn't keep her weight up and slipped down below 4 and it was tough to leave the hospital with Gavin while little O stayed behind. When the nurses tell you not to worry, that's not an easy thing to do. It was brought into perspective one day when my sister was visiting little O in the nursery and another baby, looking perfectly healthy and big, full head of hair, actually had a very serious heart condition. The father, grandfather and uncle were there with the baby, all sobbing. Olivia's weight issue seemed minor. Everything immediately was put into perspective. Anywho.... Happy Birthday Shane! Your dad rocks. And even though his decision making abilities suck, tailgating is FUN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your dad rocks. And even though his decision making abilities suck, tailgating is FUN! That is just the thing you don't know how serious some of these things are -- but perspective does come quick. After a week they told us that he was getting out of ICU. The Doctor explained everything and we were confused, didn't exactly understand what he was saying, long term ramification etc. The Doctor looks at me and says, he will be fine. When he grows up he can play High School football if he wants to. It made me laugh. That had to be tough for your sister to come home with one twin. But they are happy and healthy now! So this is a good thing. When our son who is 5 was born he was just under 12 pounds. The kid was HUGE. An Irish head the size of, well, an Irish head. Anyhow he was in ICU as well. They park him next to a premature baby who after months was up to like 4 pounds. He was born at 1.5 or something like that. Anyhow the Dad actually had his son moved. Why? Because I think my son having 2 chins at birth was bugging him (rightfully so). A 12 pounder at 1 day old. Never to babies that were born at 1.5. Not a good roomie. The Dad was understandably upset. Damn Irish -- they like their bottles too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn Irish -- they like their bottles too! Maybe the other dad thought your son was stealing his food? My sister was born in the late 60's... she was 3 lbs., born on Thanksgiving Day but was due early February the following year. Now, that was hard for my mom to leave her behind for 2+ months. And they didn't have one tenth the technology and medicine they do now, so how she even survived is still a miracle. I just don't know how parents cope. They just do and find the strength. So what did Shane want for his birthday vs. what he actually got? He is a young adult now, I'm sure he has lots of ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For his birthday we took a bunch of his friends to the movies (that ain't cheap) and he is getting guitar lessons. Because you know, this house isn't loud enough as it is right now.
