I'm having a really hard time

Hey all,
This may end up really long and maybe a bit graphic at points :(
Over the last year that I have been on this board, I know that I have mentioned that Max had a couple of really tough years for various reasons.

It's okay to feel nervous and anxious.
Sending good luck and speedy recovery for Max.
From his singing
I too had tears in my eyes when I read your post and had to take a couple deep breaths. And I don't really know this cyber-nephew personally. I can't imagine going through an ordeal like that, either as Max or as his Mom.
I do also understand your "flash backs" I had a motorcycle accident when I was in my mid 20's I landed on my face. I was very very lucky, because 1) I wasn't injured worse than I was and 2) because I only remember the accident up to a point, I don't remember the actualy crash, I just remember waking up a minute or two later. But it was a long time before I stopped having flash backs of that accident. I also understand the fear of having him go through the surgery. It is all normal.
And of course never feel bad or guilty for doing what you called babbling to us here. That is why we are hear, to be here for you, listen and support you.
My thoughts and prayers are certainly with you all. Here's hopeing that when he is done with this surgery the pain will be gone for good.
Give him a big (((((hug))))) for me and get a few from Doug for yourself!
I can't tell when "tomorrow" is but hope by the time you read this your son is out of surgery and on the road to recovery and that you are also starting to recover! You have obviously been a great support for your son and it's too bad all that love and caring is so stressful. (I know I would be the same way.)
And it was very humbling to read your story. Hang in there! Teens are fast healers and let's hope he can soon be pain-free..
