And we continue on . . . . .

Well . . . . we're still here in the safe haven of Salt Lake City. Betsy, Bill, and the Boyz have been incredible to us. Food, conversation, hot tubbing, and general distraction have been very helpful. The tough fact remains though that we just won't wake up and everything will be back to the way it was three weeks (or more) ago. We have been contacting lots of folks who have also lost their children and one of the constant themes is that things just won't ever be the same again. Just the thought about your child can bring you right back the moment (diagnosis, time in the hospital room, the moment Cash passed) and it's our job to figure out how to let the emotions do their thing and still feel like we are keeping our heads above water.

We also found out today that the official diagnosis is SMA. It two recessive genes from the both of us to make it happen. Scientifically it's completely out of our hands. Emtionally you wonder why this happened to us. At the same time it's also a gift in a weird way. All I know is that on this day it's hard to see a child in a stroller. My mind instantly goes towards thinking about Cash and then the fact that he's not with us in the sling or the baby bjorn or in his stroller. It's a pretty quick spiral that takes you down. I suppose it will keep happening over and over until we figure out how to deal with it.

We are thinking that tomorrow we will push off and head west again. All bets are off in terms of heading north or south at that point. We are surviving hour to hour and minute to minute. It's great to be together though. We really need each other right now.

Thanks for checking on the house and visiting with Cowie. We so appreciate all of you, and thanks to those of you who have been calling in and leaving messages. Please please please keep them coming.

See you soon!
