10.10.10



on the tenth day of the tenth month of 2010, we found ourselves in the hospital. everyone is okay-- namely ezra, who was having great difficulty breathing saturday night. I do believe the whole ordeal shaved a year or two off my life. I'd planned to take a photograph on this most auspicious day and while I never saw the whole emergency room thing coming, that's how the day went down.

10.10.10: sunday afternoon after the worst of it was over. kids playing on the hospital bed, the cot I slept in, ward's crossed legs. thank goodness for big purses where cameras are thrown in and forgotten about until you really need them. thank goodness for terrific doctors and nurses and thank goodness ezra is okay.

  8. How frightening! I'm relieved for you that your little one is feeling better.

    It's not that I don't believe in auspicious dates, but we just can't plan life. So for me, the most auspicious times are when I'm with Romeo and my kitties and my friends, and everyone feels safe and healthy and happy.
