Tuesday, April 19th, 2005with one punch at his tae kwon do class … after just 7 classes. He’s only four! Kids his age aren’t supposed to do that.
Bittersweet
Monday, April 18th, 2005Today is bittersweet for the Vecchione clan. Nonna is being released from the hospital after surviving several life scares last week — the good news. But she returns home with a pancreatic cancer diagnosis and the textbook prognosis of 0-6 months to live. The impact of the news gripped me last Thursday. Hearing the MercyMe [...]
Please pray for Nonna
Monday, April 11th, 2005It was just a month and a half ago that we celebrated Diana’s grandmother’s 80th birthday with a surprise party (pics here). A few days before Easter, Nonna began feeling ill, and she visited her doctor a couple of days after the holiday. The doctor found evidence of a possible mass on her liver. Last [...]
Martial Arts Boy
Wednesday, April 6th, 2005Brute strength (and charm, brilliance, and spiritual maturity) is not enough. Judah’s now studying tae kwon do to add quickness and agility to his repertoire. Check out photos of our martial artist son here.
My Boy’s a Prayer Warrior
Tuesday, March 29th, 2005Judah has been praying for Rudy’s 4 year old son Samuel almost daily ever since his Leukemia diagnosis last summer. Last week, he and I were looking at pictures of Sam online when I remembered that Liz Rios has pictures of her special needs son DJ online as well. We visited her blog and discovered [...]
Roasted my first leg of lamb this weekend
Monday, March 28th, 2005And our fifteen guests said: “It is good.” (Thanks to the Food Network!) Also on my menu: garlic mashed potatoes, roasted asparagus, and sauted spinach. Add to that Jo’s Virginia ham, stuffed artichokes and salad, Teresa’s meatballs and manicotti, and a bakery’s stash of snacks, candy and desserts and we all were plenty stuffed by [...]
Healthy Monday?
Monday, March 14th, 2005Last week I played the role of nurse for my sick wife and son. This weekend I was the patient. Saturday was a great day. Judah woke up without a fever for the first time since Tuesday. Diana was also feeling much better and spent the day with her aunt at a conference in Queens. [...]
Health Coming
Thursday, March 10th, 2005Good news on the Judah front. It appears he had a virus that should work its way out of his system by tomorrow. Already today his energy is up and a partial appetite has returned. The fever still spikes occasionally, but the highs haven’t been as high and the energy lows haven’t been as low. [...]
Health Wanted
Wednesday, March 9th, 2005Sinuses. Fevers. Argh! Diana had phase one of the procedure to finally rid her sinuses of infection yesterday. She’s battled chronic sinusitis for 18 weeks now, systematically resisting every conceivable antibiotic treatment. The procedure was originally scheduled a month ago but had to be postponed twice for medical reasons. Tomorrow she has a follow-up to [...]
Tricky candles
Friday, February 25th, 2005Nonna fooled alot of people. No way she could be 80, right? Wrong! So the family got her, first with a surprise birthday party, then with tricky candles that refused to be quenched. Check out several other pics here.
