We begin a new chapter now. Mikey is still improving, mostly back to his old scampy self. Brian, in the meantime has secured a position as field biologist for a company working with the federal government doing data collecting on oyster populations out of New Orleans. This job is related to the Deep Water Horizon--BP Gulf oil spill of last summer. Brian flys out today to the "Big Easy"--he will have a rental car waiting for him and they put him up in hotels. Its called an "at-will" postition, but it is fulltime. Yay for Brian. Over the weeks/months the changes in Mikey have been more gradual. The twinkle in his eyes and his one-of-a-kind humor are intact. The attached picture I snapped on Sunday at the mall--It was one of those "Oh Mom--really" moments, but who knows when I will have all three together at the same time again, at least for a few months. Morgan, meanwhile is in the Keys for lobster season, so I have Mikey all to myself this coming weekend.
