Leaving Gander

      No Comments on Leaving Gander

We're in Gander, Newfoundland tonight… Darren flies out tomorrow and I'm heading back to Belleoram. I'm seriously starting to doubt the sanity of this plan. Joe was looking really good until yesterday and he all of a sudden flared up… He's so bad today I almost feel like just going home. But, Flo's looking forward to spending some more time with her cousins, and I have to at least make it through the week…

I guess I'm a little depressed because I so hoped that Joe would miraculously improve while on vacation… it seemed like he was headed in that direction, and then boom… he's worse than ever… This just adds to my frustration and realization that this will be a long haul and will entail many challenges for us all. We're actually thinking of looking into an au pair… it's so hard to have any quality of life when we can't even set Joe in an exercauser or crib for a few minutes to do things that need to get done… But, I'm still trying to just take one day at a time… difficult as it is…

Anyway, today we went to an absolutely beautiful place called Twillingate. I swear I could just sit there looking out at the ocean all day… Someday I'd like to come back and take one of the whale watching or iceberg sighting tours…

Well, off to enjoy the last shower for the next ten days, as there is no shower at the house in Belleoram… just a very antiquated bath tub. Then I will try to get some sleep so as to be able to make the three hour drive back… The adventure continues….
