Life with your child in the hospital

Love you too son

Bradley, a recent PA graduate, is working with orthopaedic surgeon on hip and knee surgeries at Northwestern University and is super thoughtful to all family and friends. He was kind to share a note he came across that I wrote him a few years ago after our summer together at Camp Mah-Kee-Nac in Lenox, MA. During daily rounds with Halia, we listen everyday in the Halia’s room as the doctors talk to each other and then share with us. After time, we are able to follow Halia’s situation. It’s not normal to spend seven months in the hospital, but it’s day to day and it never seems like seven months. It’s been therapeutic to talk to Bradley about how the doctors are approaching her situation.

I am the proud father of three amazing sons, Bradley, Hunter and Chase, All 3 were boy scouts with 2 becoming eagle scouts, two played college tennis players and third could have, and they have college degrees in Chemistry, Physics, Math and Kinesiology. They are a PA at Northwestern University in Chicago, a scientific and engineering researcher at Southern Research and a soon to be PT/PA student. The addition of a beautiful baby daughter, Halina, has joined our family tree. I am currently the Tennis Director at the Club and Spa at Fiddler's Creek in Naples, Florida.
