What are you lookin at?

If you have kept up with this blog you know a little bit about me but not everything. Most know I have a son and most know he has been sick in the first few years of his life. On aug 7th my son finally turned two years old. It has been a long and tiring process of hospital visits...doctors offices...needles..surgeries...etc.

The more time I spend on the road the more time I seem to miss my home life. I don't look at things the same way anymore. Sure I get angry and worked up over stupid show biz stuff but at the end of the day i only worry about my son, is he going to throw up before bedtime? Is he going to eat today. My son is still not out of the woods. He is vastly underweight and may have to get a feeding tube. He is only 19 pounds when he should be well over 30. He eats less then a bird and has reflux so at the slightest crying he can throw up.

Even after all this ...he turned two. He still laughs like other kids...still likes to play like other kids. I have included two pictures...one from two years ago and one of him now so you can see how far he has come.

It has been a long journey for most of us. At times it has been hard to even be funny..I remember 24hrs after my son had major heart surgery..the big one...less then two months old...that night next night I was on stage. I know I am not the only one who has had to do this. People do it all the time...go to work at times when they shouldn't or don't want to. I do have to say when I said I hated those people that night I meant it more then I ever had before.
