Another hole in her head...

One of my favorite sayings to my kids and some students I work with is "You need that like you need another hole in your head." Well, my words have come back to bite me, and how. My oldest daughter is disabled and has had 4 different brain surgeries since 2003, the last being in 2004. All has been relatively good for her since then. Only a few seizures a year now rather than a few dozen a day. because of the extensive brain surgeries she has plates screwed in to her skull to keep it together. it now seems that one of the screws has rubbed its way through her scalp. Now she needs to have another surgery, albeit a minor one, this week.

Ah, just one of the great pleasures of fatherhood. :)
