You know, Dad, when I found out that Ethan had a problem with his hearing, I cried. Then we had surgery done, and it didn’t work. I sent him to speech therapy – it’s still difficult to understand him sometimes. I cried and cried.
But he’s a sweet kid and he has lots of friends and he’s really athletically talented. I’m very lucky to have such a wonderful little boy.
And when your father died, it hit me like a rock to the head. He was always good to me. I cried.
But you sold your house and moved in with your mother and got a lot of money from the sale. And you were able to help me pay for Ethan’s surgery. I really appreciate that.
Then your mother died. I cried, but it was time. She hadn’t been well for a long time. I think her life would have been miserable. It was time.
And now, you’re moving out here to be with my family and me. And that’s so wonderful.
It’s all good, Dad. Everything is working out for all of us. It’s all good.
