So I think Charlie's stomach aiment may be a three or four week ordeal. I know, fasten your seatbelt.
One things sets off another thing. A stomach ailment leads to so much discomfort Charlie has a rough week and b angs his head and ends up at ER and has staples put in his head, leading to more woes about the back of his head hurting though he's not able tell us or anyone such that Tuesday morning is one of Charlie's toughest ever at school.
He gets home ok, enjoys his bike rides and wants three walks and his stomach is feeling better, then can't sleep and knocks his head on the wall while overloading on iPad music, leading to a scene at home in his room like the one at school in the morning, after which, Charlie, realizing that Jim starts teaching Wednesday, gets out of bed and sits in the black chair till almost 2am saying 'No New York" very loudly. He finally lies down to sleep, stil mournful.
"We'll get through it together," we had said to Charlie. "Together," he'd echoed.
I've a few calls to two doctors' offices to make on Wednesday.
