AND Philly CONTINUES! & First Father's Day


And here's the extended vacation story in a nut shell.... After the Phillies game Matt passed out smacking his head so hard on the concrete that his brain actually was forced forward in his head hitting his front right lobe.  After coming to we opted to take him to the ER.  Well 2 ER's, an ambulance ride, 2 hospitals, a fractured skull, bleeding & internal bruising to brain, 6 glorious days, many tests, CAT scans, Xrays, monitors, a breastpump (that was for me), a Neuro team, a Trauma team, and a Cardio team we were released to go back to the Sifer's.  Amongst all this Lil D was back at the Ranch with Auntie Jill and the Sifer's.  They were driving into the city, an hour each way, picking up milk supplies to take back for Dylan.  Matt spent his first Father's Day in Jefferson Hospital - not much fun, but we did sneak Dylan in.  After spending a few days at the Sifer's and just about to get on a plane to come home Matt took a turn for the worse and we had to pull the plug and get him back to yet another hospital for 3 more days. Thank goodness for the Sifer's family friend, Dr. Tinkoff, who just happens to be head of the Trauma department at Christianna Hospital (the 3rd hospital we were at).  He was a huge help through it all - I can't begin to thank him enough!!!!!  AND a very special thank you to the Sifer's and Auntie Jill - they were all such a huge support and help!!!!  We love you guys.

First Father's Day.  To the best Dad - we love you!!!  Here's to next year, maybe we'll do something a little more fun!
