The Other Side.

Dad Cook, Mom Cook, Besty, Aaron and I traveled down to Utica last night. Aaron was due for surgery at 7:15 A.M. He is now out. We can see him in an hour. Thank you all for prayers and kind words to us. He had a cyst tumor puss sac type thing that was thinning the bone in his arm, but now he is all cleaned out and stitched up. Right now I am relaxing, knowing that my guy will be okay.

“Maybe, maybe I am weird.” & an Answered prayer

The doctor’s appointment went well. The tumor is NOT cancerous, Praise God. Aaron will get worked on when the season is not so busy, most likely in November. We are going back in early June for another appointment. He can do tree service and farming, he just needs to be cautious, and if his pain changes he will get worked on sooner. That is about all I can report at this moment, I am rather tired.

Aaron and I were turning into the parking lot to the restaurant my family visits on holidays. We were having a conversation and I don’t remember how we got on the topic but I asked him “Are we weird?”  He looked at me with a look that said “You should know” “Yes” he replied. “I like being weird with you.” He smiled a me.  Besides the obvious, I am strange when compared with the average American 20-something.
