Get well, Simon


Dear Simon,

Perhaps years from now, you will be reading this with interest. I just came back from Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital to see you. I gave you a black car that makes noises. You watched as Tony and I played Street Fighter II. I don’t know how much you will remember from your time there, but I can vouch that it was a very traumatic experience for you. I do know that your parents supported you, cared for you, and loved you.

When I was six years old, I spent Christmas Eve in King County Hospital in New York. I had such a sharp pain in my stomach, and I went there in the middle of the night. The doctors kept giving me needles, pricked the tip of my fingers to draw blood, I had an x-ray, and a lot of embarrassing procedures as well. Well, after everything was said and done, the doctors never could found out what was wrong with my stomach. It was a horrible experience, but I had the presence, love, and support of my family there. So did you.

Love,
Damian

  • Roadkill: Dead Raccoon, Death, Rebirth, End of Suffering
    This time around I realized that the raccoon was free from suffering now. It's a shame its life had to end like that- it was blameless; humans built roads in the middle of his ancestor's forest. Progress and technology broke that raccoon's legs and took his life tonight. But now the suffering has ended for it. I mourned the raccoon and the way […]

    ust a quick observation before I run: I jumped from watching 1980's pro wrestling to the 1991 Survivor Series because WWE put up the whole PPV online for a limited time. It never fails to amaze me how much things change. It was like I was in a time machine from 1987 to 1991... […]
