Live your life each day as you would climb a mountain.
An occasional glance toward the summit keeps the goal in mind,
but many beautiful scenes are to be observed from each new vantage point.

Back Home

Last night we brought Mason home from OHSU. The reason that he was there was he was not breathing very well, a process that took a month to need more care. There was fluid on his lungs and was given a diuretic to clear that up. He was also given a 5 day dose of steroids to help with inflammation in his lungs. The good news was that he went in the hospital on 1.5 liters of oxygen and blow-by he left on 1/2 a liter.

I was amazed to see how much happier Mason was now that he could breathe. Before it took a lot of work to get him to smile but now it seems that he smiles jut to get a reaction out of me.
