A freilichin Chanukah!
Miracles are in the air.
Miracles of oil…
Miracles of my child.
So, yes, an EEG confirmed that Chaim Boruch has “General Epilepsy”.
I have entered a new world.
One of seizures, medication and side effects.
Yet I have also entered a new universe…
of awe, grattitude, acceptance, and wonder.
I hold Chaim Boruch close.
I ask him to please be okay.
He nodds yes and smiles.
He smiles.
Never underestimate the power of a smile.
He is a little miracle.
His life, his body, his soul, his outlook…
all a miracle.
I can see the light of chanukah dance in his eyes.
I am blessed.
Happy Chanukah Chaim Boruch.
