Christmas this year has been a busy one.\u00a0 Not because of the running around, fighting the crowds at the stores.\u00a0 Not because of work getting in the way.\u00a0 But rather we had a little hiccup.\u00a0 You see, my oldest daughter was admitted to the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford Monday evening with what they thought was Kawasaki’s Disease (yeah, I’ve never heard of it either).\u00a0 After some tests, they pretty much confirmed it (there is no specific test for Kawasaki’s, but rather a series of criteria – just about all of which she met), and started the treatment.\u00a0 Thank God, she responded well to the treatment, but also we found out she’s allergic to aspirin (another part of the treatment), which threw another kink into things.\u00a0 But finally, after nearly a week in the hospital, we’re all home.<\/p>\n
This ordeal just reiterates one thing to myself, something I’ve always believed in – everything we purchase this holiday season really doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things.\u00a0 Without family and your health, you truly have nothing.<\/p>\n
Merry Christmas everyone.\u00a0 I got what I wanted for Christmas – a bit late, but I did get it.\u00a0 My daughter is back home, and on the road to a full recovery.<\/p>\n
