Family and Friends (My thoughts)

Discussion..

We awake today with the sun. Before the hustle and bustle of the day. Updates, procedures and happenings. I want to give thanks. Thank you for all that I have come into contact with. Those in my life and those that are gone. Cousins, Elders, non blood related family, I miss you. The circles that I have been running lately, have me thinking. Have me soul searching. A new day, allows for a new thought. A new minute means new life. Growth, progress and for me that’s hope. That’s a string I have grasping fairly tight for a while. Attempting to nourish my roots I have uncovered some space. I’m gonna run today. Get some air change my perspective a bit. Attempt to shake off my yesterday, shake off last week, loosen up some old chains. This allows me to have some smiles. I remember being raised in the ER. The amount of exposure that I had to the medical profession was out of by his world. Thank you dad. I watched my dad and everyone else just amaze me everyday. Man did they set the bar high. Thank you Emergency Dept. I have had the privilege to both see my dad in action, work right next to my dad and protect him (not that he needed it). The voodoo shift. I remember busting my eye doing craziness (being a hard headed LIMON) and my dad stitched me up. Talking to me the entire time. While he numbed me up. While he rinsed the shit out of my eye (irrigation he said). Things he said that have stuck.

Mijo. It’s ok to be crazy. Just be smart at the same time. Lol. He said you know you have the best person for this job. And then he smiled. And with the one good eye I watched a lady get wheeled in with her heart exposed. He said Mijo look at me. Just focus on this. Nothing else matters. Just me and you right now. Next thing you know, I’m done 24 stitches and great vision. Thank you dad. Let’s go Pops, Let’s go father. Be tough a little longer. be strong a little longer. I can’t wait to see you. (Jamie)
