Sorry about Bob. Sometimes we just throw our heart into a lost cause, even though we know the chances are zero to none. But we still try. Sometimes we beat the odds and that one success outweighs all the losses. :hugs
That's exactly it, I knew he had a slim chance, and wasn't surprised really. I have 53 total, I finally got a head count on them when I cleaned out their brooder.

I'll see your knee, and raise you an arm! Both pics are of the same arm, top and bottom. My ortho doc debated another surgery but after looking at my nerve conduction study said it wouldn't be useful, and they'll look into cutting into my collar bone to release it up there instead. I wish I could find the surgery pics, they were really cool (and gross, lol).

She is just so precious!! She appears to be very alert, too. What a beautiful head of hair. My oldest daughter had a head full like that, lost it all and was 2 before it grew back, Blonde. Yeh, that arm looks pretty damaged ya have. I've only had 1 surgery on the knee, but no cartilage, shredded ligaments, nerve damage, and not much inner support to keep it in place. I injured it playing softball back in '77....I thought I was having Fun....:)

You WERE having fun ... until you wrecked your knee ;)

Those are some wicked scars @AClark, did the doctor use a butcher knife instead of a scalpel?

It looks like he used a cross-cut saw! :lol:

Your baby is so gorgeous! :love I like the pink camo blanket. It's so nice that you are influencing her with girlie stuff! :lol:

Lol, the pink camo are the sheets on my bed - but I totally have a Mossy Oak onesie for her!

The top of my arm was done by a window in 3rd grade, I fell right through that thing. The back was done by a great surgeon, they didn't use stitches (glue) so it didn't quite stick together great. It should have, since it was in a cast for 2 weeks to heal, but it was in the middle of summer and with the humidity and all, it was a nasty soggy mess (and boy did it itch!)

I don't expect Lena to lose her hair. All my kids were born with a mop of hair, and all but 1 stayed dark (so I have 4 brunette kids and 1 blonde, and I am brunette, so is DH). My 2nd youngest has really dark hair, it's darker than mine. Here's my 6 year old with her new baby sister.
